In the shadow of the last sun
_____
A fisherman had dozed off
_____
And he had a furrow down his face
_____
A killer came to the beach
_____
Two big kid eyes
_____
Two huge eyes of fear
_____
Were the mirrors of an adventure
_____
And he asked the old man 'give me bread
_____
I've got little time and too much hunger'
_____
And he asked the old man 'give me wine
_____
I'm thirsty and I'm a killer'
_____
The old man opened his eyes to the day
_____
He didn't even look around
_____
But he poured the wine and broke the bread
_____
For the one who said 'I'm thirsty, I'm hungry'
_____
And it was the heat of a moment
_____
Then off again toward the wind
_____
Still the sun before his eyes
_____
Behind his back a fisherman
_____
Behind his back a fisherman
And memory is already pain
_____
It's already the regret of an April
_____
Played in the shadow of a courtyard
_____
Two gendarmes came on horseback
_____
They came on horseback with their weapons
_____
They asked the old man if nearby
_____
But in the shadow of the last sun
_____
The fisherman had dozed off
_____
And he had a furrow down his face
_____
Like some kind of smile
_____
And he had a furrow down his face
_____
Like some kind of smile
