La Playa
Marie Laforêt
The Beach
When the beach flooded with light, and sun
and when the sea with its murmur spoke of love
when I dreamed in the blue, it came to imitate this dreaming, you arrived
flower of our summer, our love maybe
that a fatal autumnal breeze will wither
end of my dream of illusion
and on this beach my heart will shipwreck
and I will remain the same, sand and sea
the beach in solitude will stay
and at the beginning its voice will extinguish
the footprints of the two will be erased
when on the beach the sun shines again
I will be there and by the sea I will remember
evoke the immensity of our love
that brought me happiness
you must return, here on the beach I will wait for you.
