Je Cherche L'ombre

I'm looking for the shade
To dance with you
My love
To these old songs
That come back to mind
When the sun goes down
And the evening returns

I'm looking for the shade
To shelter us
My love
To discover your body
Far from any light
And to love you again
Like a stranger

I'm looking for the shade
To extinguish the fire
My love
That devours my soul
And burns in my veins
Of this infamous desire
That rages within me

I'm looking for the shade
To cry with you
My love
About this too short life
That slips through our fingers
And eats away the days
Taking me away from you

I'm looking for the shade

I'm looking for the shade
Like one looks for a friend
My love
Who will take our hand
Without tears, without sorrow
To lead us elsewhere
To hide our happiness

To hide our happiness

I'm looking for the shade
I'm looking for the shade

I'm looking for the shade
