_____
I've never been so happy as that morning
_____
We were walking on a beach a bit like this one
_____
A fall with lovely weather
_____
A season that exists only in North America
_____
Over there they call it Indian summer
_____
But it was simply ours
_____
With your long dress you looked
_____
Like a watercolor by Marie Laurencin
_____
I remember so well
_____
What I told you that morning
_____
A year ago, a century ago, an eternity ago
_____
We'll go where you want, when you want
_____
And we'll still love each other when love is dead
_____
All our life will be like that morning
_____
In the colors of Indian summer
_____
Today I'm far away from that fall morning
_____
But it's like I'm there. I'm thinking of you
_____
Where are you? What are you doing? Do I still exist for you?
_____
I watch this wave that will never reach the dune
_____
You see, like it I go back
_____
Like it I lie down on the sand
_____
I remember the high tides
_____
The sun and the happiness that drifted over the sea
_____
An eternity ago, a century ago, a year ago
_____
We'll go where you want, when you want
_____
And we'll still love each other when love is dead
_____
All our life will be like that morning
_____
In the colors of Indian summer
