Lyrics Les dernières hirondelles Henri Salvador

Les dernières hirondelles


Les dernières hirondelles
Vers d'autres cieux plus cléments
S'éloignaient à tire d'ailes
Sous la pluie et dans le vent.
Le joueur de mandoline
Egratignait sous le haut vent
La chanson de colombine
A l'attention des passants.

Une fleur tombée à terre
Répandait négligemment
Son parfum et son mystère
Sous les pas indifférents,
Ça et là, des feuilles rousses
Venaient frôler nos cheveux
Et la vie était si douce
Et nous étions si heureux.

Un chien noir tirant la patte
Cheminait clopin-clopant
Une gamine à longue natte
Le suivait en sautillant
Nous marchions l'un près de l'autre
Mon pas s'accordant au tien
Sans nous occuper des autres
Ma main au chaud dans ta main.

Le ciel était gris et mauve
Les arbres en gémissant
Quittaient leur parure fauve
Dans la pluie et sous le vent
Ce jour là tout pareil aux autres
S'éteignit, le soir venu,
Mais tu m'avais dit, je t'aime
Et je ne l'oublierai plus.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
