Dites-lui
Marie Laforêt
Tell Him
Tell him it's snowing and the kids
Are running to the rides in their white coats
Tell him it's snowing but don't say
That I'm feeling down and that I'm waiting for him.
Tell him it's snowing but don't say
That I'm feeling down and that I'm waiting for him.
Tell him the tree will bloom soon
That there's honey and water on the table
Tell him that Rose is watching the kids
On the days I take my laundry to the pond.
Talk to him about Rose but don't say
That Fidèle is gone and that I'm waiting for her.
Tell him that Pierre has finally come home
That three years of war have really changed him
Tell him that Jeanne has broken off her engagement
And that Pierre and Jeanne are getting married.
Tell him a man has come to sit down,
That his hands are warm and his gaze is kind
He chases the snow, takes me to the pond
And plays on the rides with the kids.
Tell him a man has come here
That his hands are warm and that I said "Yes."
That his hands are warm and that I said "Yes."
