This is the Paris of my childhood These were the borders of my life In this crumbling, dusty attic Where an artist loved his wife Easy to remember Harder to move on Knowing the Paris of my childhood is gone

La mer Qu'on voit danser Le long des golfes clairs A des reflets d'argent La mer Des reflets changeants Sous la pluie La mer Qu'au ciel d'été confond Ses blancs moutons Avec les anges si purs La mer Bergère d'azur, infinie Voyez Près des étangs Ces grands roseaux mouillés Voyez Ces oiseaux blancs Et ces maisons rouillées La mer Les a bercés Le long des golfes clairs Et d'une chanson d'amour La mer A bercé mon cœur pour la vie La mer Qu'on voit danser Le long des golfes clairs A des reflets d'argent La mer Des reflets changeants Sous la pluie La mer Au ciel d'été confond Ses blancs moutons Avec les anges si purs La mer Bergère d'azur, infinie Voyez (voyez) Près des étangs (près des étangs) Ces grands roseaux mouillés (voyez ces roseaux) Voyez (voyez) Ces oiseaux blancs (ces oiseaux blancs) Et ces maisons rouillées (la-la-la-la-la-la) La mer Les a bercés (les a bercés) Le long des golfes clairs Et d'une chanson d'amour La mer A bercé mon cœur pour la vie
