Poor Little Pierrette - Julie Andrews There is an old French legend That's set to an old French tune It tells how Pierrot loved Pierrette Under a Summer moon Ev'ry night the lovers meet Just as the clock strikes nine Then he gives her kisses sweet As vintage wine But alas one fateful night Pierrette is forsworn There she stands forlorn Till the cold grey dawn Poor little Pierrette Where's your Pierrot Why are you all alone You should be So fancy-free Your heart should be high But instead You hang your head And try not to cry Poor little Pierrette You mustn't show Your dream of love has flown Just keep on dancing Till the dawn and then He may come back again Poor little Pierrette Where's your Pierrot Why are you all alone Ah You should be So fancy-free Your heart should be high Ah But instead You hang your head And try not to cry Ah Poor little Pierrette You mustn't show Your dream of love has flown Ah Just keep on dancing Till the dawn and then He may come back again Poor little Pierrette Where's your Pierrot Why are you all alone Ah You should be So fancy-free Your heart should be high Ah But instead You hang your head And try not to cry Ah Poor little Pierrette You mustn't show Your dream of love has flown Ah Just keep on dancing Till the dawn and then He may come back again
