Do the walls remember us?
_____
Sometimes I go to the address of our great love
_____
I walk past and hope to see you through the window
_____
Trusting, a smile at the corner of your lips
_____
I see that there's light
_____
Others will spend their winter nights there
_____
Will make love under these windows
_____
Others will live long nights of parties
_____
Will wage war or maybe they'll love each other forever?
_____
Others like us will do the same
14 boulevard Saint Michel
_____
Do the neighbors remember us?
_____
I go back to our old address to settle things
_____
The entry code isn't the same anymore
_____
So I watch if the windows still let the daylight through
_____
I can barely see any light
_____
Others like us cry with grief under a streetlamp
_____
Will make love under these windows
_____
Others will live long nights of parties
_____
Will wage war or maybe they'll love each other forever?
_____
Others like us will do the same
14 boulevard Saint Michel
_____
We had nothing, we were everything
_____
We had nothing but we were everything
_____
Like others before us
_____
Made love under these windows
_____
Others like us lived long nights of parties
_____
Fought wars, yeah but maybe they'll love each other forever?
_____
Life was so much more beautiful
