Le Lundi Au Soleil
Claude François
Monday in the Sun
Look at your watch
It's already eight o'clock
Let's kiss tenderly
A taxi takes you away
You're leaving, my heart
Among these thousands of people
It's an ideal day
To walk in the forest
We would find it more normal
To go to bed
Alone in Les Genêts
Monday in the sun
It's something we'll never have
Every time it's the same
It's when we're behind the windows
When we work that the sky is beautiful
That it must be beautiful on the roads
Monday in the sun
Monday in the sun
We could spend it loving each other
Monday in the sun
We would be better in the smell of hay
We would rather pick grapes
Or simply do nothing
Monday in the sun
You, you're at the other end
Of this city
There, like every day
The last hours
Are the most difficult
I need your love
And then in the crowd in the distance
I see you, you smile at me
The neon lights of the stores
Are all on
It's already night
Monday in the sun
It's something we'll never have
Every time it's the same
It's when we're behind the windows
When we work that the sky is beautiful
That it must be beautiful on the roads
Monday in the sun
Monday in the sun
We could spend it loving each other
Monday in the sun
We would be better in the smell of hay
We would rather pick grapes
Or simply do nothing
Monday in the sun
