SOL
Françoise Hardy
SUN
It was the sun with its splendor
That gave warmth
To our love
The beauty of the sea
Seemed greater
Under that sun
I remember when walking
By the beach with you
I was happy
A seashell you
Picked up to hear
The sound of the sea
Sun, I love you
Because you are faithful
All life long,
But love
Is not constant like you
Why?
You were always hungry
I gave you the best
To eat
You got mad because I
Didn't eat like you
Nothing happened
And we both lay down
On the sand under the sun
To dream,
Of a beautiful and sweet home
And the children who, upon arrival
Would unite us more
In my window the sun shone
And its strong heat
Woke me up
My loneliness discovered
Saw that our love passed,
Heard my crying
How many beaches will bring me
Your fleeting memory
And my dreaming
Our home vanished,
And the children will never
Bring us together
