La Mer Opale

Nomadic love
Is vagabond
It's only an airship
Towards the horizon
Bohemian love
Deep down, doesn't care
About these imponderables
Disillusionments
Disappointed
Pacts sealed
That we thought were broken
Ideas we thought were received
The Moon is pale
And its reflection in the opal sea

Shines in the distance
We're fine
Shines in the distance
We're fine
Frivolous love
Is not chilly
It lives on an atoll
Blessed by the gods
Supreme love
Is vain
It's a sham

A double game of deception
A missed act
On a street corner
A look we wouldn't have seen
The Moon is pale
And its reflection in the opal sea
Shines in the distance
We're fine
Shines in the distance
We're fine
