Salut Les Amoureux

Mornings come and go, they’re the same
When love gives way to the daily grind
We weren’t meant to live together
It’s not enough to just love each other fine

It’s funny, yesterday we were bored
And barely found the words
To talk about the bad weather
And now that it’s time to leave
We’ve got a hundred thousand things to say
That mean too much
For such a little time

We loved like we’re parting
Simply without thinking of tomorrow
Tomorrow that always comes a bit too fast
To the goodbyes that sometimes
Go a little too well

We do what we have to, we play our parts
We look at each other, we laugh, we show off a bit
We always forget something
It’s not easy to say goodbye

And we know all too well that sooner or later
Tomorrow maybe or even tonight
We’ll tell ourselves that all is not lost
From this unfinished story
We’ll make it a fairy tale
But we’ve outgrown that, we wouldn’t believe it anymore

We loved like we’re parting
Simply without thinking of tomorrow
Tomorrow that always comes a bit too fast
To the goodbyes that sometimes
Go a little too well

Romeo, Juliet, and all the others
In the depths of your books, sleep in peace
A simple story like ours
Is one that will never be written

Come on, babe, we gotta go
Leave our memories behind
We’ll head down together if you want
And when she sees us pass by
The café owner
Will still say to us: Hello lovers!

We loved like we’re parting
Simply without thinking of tomorrow
Tomorrow that always comes a bit too fast
To the goodbyes that sometimes
Go a little too well
