Jacques Prévert
Oh, I wanted so much for you to remember
Of the happy days when we were friends
In those days life was more beautiful
And the sun was hotter than today
The dead leaves are picked up with a shovel
You see, I haven't forgotten
The dead leaves are picked up with a shovel
Memories and regrets too
And the north wind carries them away,
In the cold night of oblivion
You see I haven't forgotten,
The song you used to sing to me
The dead leaves are picked up with a shovel
The memories and regrets too,
But my silent and faithful love
Still smiles and thanks life
I loved you so much, you were so pretty,
How can I forget you?
In those days life was more beautiful
And the sun was hotter than today
You were my sweetest friend
But I don't care about regrets
And the song you sang,
Always, always I'll hear it
It's a song that's like us,
You loved me, I loved you
And we lived, both together,
You who loved me, I who loved you
But life separates those who love each other,
Slowly, without making a sound
And the sea erases on the sand
The steps of the disunited lovers
It is a song that resembles us,
You loved me and I loved you
And we both lived together,
You who loved me, I who loved you
But life separates those who love each other,
Slowly, without making a sound
And the sea erases on the sand
The steps of the separated lovers
