Lamplight

Allons, viens encore, chérie
J'attendrai patiemment sous la lampe dans la vieille avenue

Then I may end
She had things to buy
I close my eyes
Yet I don't know why
I gave her money, said she knew someone
And she said she won't be long

Lamplights keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning
Lamplights keep on burning till this love of yours is mine

I sat alone with my thoughts and laughed
Then saw your face in an old photograph
I didn't think that I could live without you
But what am I to do?

Lamplights keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning
Lamplights keep on burning till this love of yours is mine

Come home again dear
I have waited year after year
Under the lamp in our old avenue
If all in the world that's laughing
Why should it make us cry?
Ah
