Mes Souvenirs de Toi
Zaz
My Memories of You
August mornings
I feel a tightness in my throat
Don’t want to get up
My shutters are locked tight
I prayed for you all summer
You never came back
One day you left me
And you just disappeared
When December evenings come
I cling to the thought
That in the new year
You’d want to see me again
I prayed for you all winter
You never came home
I had to believe otherwise
Yeah, I was wrong
The seasons drag on in my place
Leaving me alone face to face
Face to I don’t know what
With our loves that time chases away
Everything dissolves but nothing erases
The memory of you
The memory of you
Autumn at the window
Makes no sense without you
My Mondays repeat
As I sing to you softly
I hold onto the maybes
That keep me tied to you
So precious are the crumbs
That I have left of that
The seasons drag on in my place
Leaving me alone face to face
Face to I don’t know what
With our loves that time chases away
Everything dissolves but nothing erases
The memory of you
The memory of you
The memory of you
Dead loves waltz
Wheat blooms again
I wait by my door
I let you walk away
