Menilmontant

Menilmontant, yes indeed madam
That's where I left my heart
That's where I come to find my soul
All my flame
All my happiness...
When I see again my little church
Where weddings used to happen joyfully
When I see again my old gray house
Where even the breeze
Speaks of the past
They tell me
Like in the old days
Lovely tales
Beautiful days I see you again
A meeting
A music
Dreamy eyes a whole novel
A poetic and pathetic love story
Menilmontant!

When noon chimes
Life awakens again
Everything resonates
With a thousand echoes
The working girl has her lunch at the bistro
The gossip
Reads her newspapers
Here's the green gate
Here's the open door
That creaks a bit to say "Hello hello
So you're back?"

Menilmontant, yes indeed madam
That's where I left my heart
That's where I come to find my soul
All my flame
All my happiness...
When I see again my little station
Where every train passed happily
I still hear in the commotion
Strange words
Words of farewell
I'm not a poet
But I'm moved,
And in my head
There are memories never lost
One winter evening
A music
Very sweet eyes yours mom
What a beautiful poetic
And pathetic love story
Menilmontant!
