Joe Dassin - L'été indien
Indian Summer

You know, I'd never been
as happy as I was that morning

We were walking along a beach
like this one here

It was autumn,
a beautiful autumn day

A season that exists only
in the North America

There it's called the Indian summer,

But this one was simply ours

With your long dress

you resembled a watercolor
by Marie Laurencin

And I remember,

I remember very well
what I told you that morning

For a year, a century, an eternity...

We will be going, where you want to go,
whenever you want to

And we will still love each other
even when the love is dead

Our whole life will be as it is this morning

In the colors of the Indian summer

Today I'm far away
from that autumn morning

But it's like I am still there

I'm thinking of you

Where are you?

What are you doing?

Do I still exist for you?

I'm watching this wave
that never quite reaches the dune

You see, like that wave, I go back

like that wave, I am laying on the sand
and remembering...

I remember the high tides,

the sun and happiness
passing over the sea

For an eternity, a century, a year

We will be going, where you want to go,
whenever you want to

And we will still love each other
even when the love is dead

And our whole life will be
as it was that morning

In the colors of the Indian summer

We will be going, where you want to go,
whenever you want to

And we will still love each other
even when the love is dead...
