L'été Indien Lyrics in English Joe Dassin
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song L'été Indien by Joe Dassin from French to English.
Verse 1
You know
I've never been so happy as that morning
Verse 1
We were walking on a beach a bit like this one
It was fall
A fall with lovely weather
Verse 1
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
And I remember
I remember so well
Verse 1
What I told you that morning
A year ago, a century ago, an eternity ago
Chorus 1
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
Verse 2
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
And I remember
I remember the high tides
Verse 2
The sun and the happiness that drifted over the sea
An eternity ago, a century ago, a year ago
Chorus 2
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
