Fanette

We were two friends in love, fanette and I

The empty beach was warm and sleepy in july

If the sea recalls, the waves would surely say

I sang so may songs for fanette each day

She was, she was as beautiful as rainbows in the sky

She was so beautiful and not at all am I

She was, she was there on the sand as gold as she was brown

And when I held her hand I held the world around

I was, I was so crazy then to think that it could be

I thought that I was hers, I believed she was for me

But we, we never learn until it's too late

We were two friends in love, fanette and I

The empty beach was warm deceitful in july

If the sea recalls, the waves would surely say

I stopped singing my songs for fanette that day

I saw, I saw them arm-in-arm enfolded by the sea

They looked so much in love they never looked at me

They saw, they saw me and they laughed, they stood and watched me cry

And sang their little song, I cursed the summer sky

You see, I'd like to tell you how

They swam so well that day

They swam so far away

You'll never see them now

Oh, no, no, no, no, no - no we never learn

But let's talk of something else

We were never two friends, fanette and I

The empty streets are cold and crying in july

But when the waves are still I still can hear it yet

I hear a little song

I hear

Fanette
