Au bord de l'eau
Gerald de Palmas
By the Water
In the barely dawning day
While it's already getting hot
I took off
Not facing the city
I’ll circle the island
It’s better this way
Chorus:
By the water
There’s this girl calling me
She thinks I’m handsome
By the water
I spend hours with her
Without saying a word
No one notices me anymore
A shadow on the corner of the street
A being apart
We have fun, they feel sorry for me
None of that gets to me
'Cause somewhere
(Chorus)
I’ve spent so much time
Trying to be interesting
That one night I got lost
Here’s what I’m gonna do
Go to the ends of the earth
The ocean as far as I can see
(Chorus)
Without saying a word
By the water (x2)
