Tu m'attendais
Georges Moustaki
You Were Waiting for Me
{He:}
You were waiting for me at the edge of a forest
By the sea, next to a fireplace.
You were waiting, the table was set.
We could hear the ocean, the trees were swaying.
{She:}
You were searching for me from country to country,
From valley to glade, from season to season.
{He:}
You were waiting for me on the first days of May,
At the end of winter, every day of the year.
{She:}
You were searching for me from city to city,
From mountain to desert, from house to house.
{He:}
You were waiting for me at the edge of a forest,
By the sea, next to a fireplace.
