Cherche la rose
Henri Salvador
Search for the Rose
In the desert sand
On the dunes by the sea
And too bad if you get lost,
Search for the rose
In the windows of prisons
Where one dreams of forgiveness
Where a song dies
Search for the rose
Under the moss, the nettles
In the puddles of rain
On the forgotten graves
Search for the rose {the rose}
Where the suburbs grow sad
With the blind, with the deaf
Where the night dreams of the day
Search for the rose, the rose of the day
In the depths of your wounded heart
Where the source runs dry
Where a cry rises in the shadows
Search for the rose
And walking on all the pavements
If you haven't found it
At least you will have dreamed of it
Search for the rose {the rose}
Search for the rose {the rose}
The rose {the rose}
The rose {the rose}
The rose {the rose}
The rose {the rose}...
