Song Meaning of “Farewell to Paris” by Tatiana and Sergey Nikitin
This haunting, melancholic folk song looks back on a past romance in Paris, as the singers bid the city farewell. It speaks of bittersweet memories—love and joy and pain all at once—that linger and still have an influence on the singers’ present. The song paints an almost mystical picture of the city of love, evoking a sense of sadness as the singers reminisce on the experiences they had and the feelings they felt, all now in the past.
The song speaks of longing and regret while also acknowledging those moments of pure pleasure and delight experienced together in the city’s romantic atmosphere. Despite the sadness of parting, the singers ultimately find solace in the knowledge that each of them will always carry a piece of Paris away with them in their hearts, and with it, the memories of the time they spent together.
Even though they have had to bid goodbye to this perfect place, they find comfort in the reminder that Paris will always be a part of them, that it’s possible to carry their love with them even after they have gone. Farewell to Paris is an homage to the city and a beautiful tribute to a beloved past that will never be forgotten.
