It's April in Paris AND in East TN


Bonjour from Campagne Maison




O.K. I'm not Doris Day or Miss Ethel "Dynamite" Jackson, this is not Paris in 1952, but it is April and the apple trees are in blossom at Campagne Maison.



April In Paris
Vernon Duke/ E.Y. Harburg


I never knew the charm of Spring
I never met it face to face
I never knew my heart could sing
I never missed a warm embrace


Till April in Paris, chestnuts in blossom
Holiday tables under the trees
April in Paris, this is a feeling
That no one can ever reprise



I never knew the charm of Spring
I never met it face to face
I never knew my heart could sing
I never missed a warm embrace


Till April in Paris
Whom can I run to
What have you done to my heart



"Just twist my arm and I'll agree, Paris is getting to me"
Miss Ethel "Dynamite" Jackson, "April in Paris", 1952
