Je T'apprendrai L'amour
Claude Barzotti
I Will Teach You Love
HER:
I dreamed last night that I made love
I dreamed last night that I was close to you
I dreamed last night that they taught me love
That I was close to you and you so close to me.
HIM:
I will teach you love
With tender gestures
I will tell you the words
That you dream of hearing
I will discover you
For the first time
When you fall asleep
Sleeping close to me.
I will teach you the night
In deep languor
On the same ocean
We will leave the world
And the first sun
Will slide on your skin
Impatient to offer you
Other new mornings
CHORUS:
HER: Teach me love
HIM: I will teach you love
HER: Will you take me where?
HIM: Here, there, everywhere
HER: Will it last... for days?
HIM: It will last forever.
HIM:
I will teach you life
And its joys and fears
I will be gentleness
To stifle your complaints
And your spring so pure
Will see the birth of summer
When you become a woman
For my eternity.
I will teach you love
With tender gestures
I will tell you the words
That you dream of hearing
I will teach you by heart
On the tips of my fingers
When you become a woman
For the first time.
CHORUS
HER: Will you teach me, promised?
HIM: Sworn
