I HAD YOUR LOVE (maurice Reverdy) - maurice Reverdy

Adaptation anglaise de ma chanson "J'ai dû t'aimer" (voir texte ci-dessous). One-take intimiste d'une mélodie qui me suit depuis longtemps déjà. Appareil photo Nikon, petit son et ultra compressé... please, qu'il me soit beaucoup pardonné, merci !
PS/ je joue ici sur une Gurian jumbo de 1978 (!)



I HAD YOUR LOVE (adaptation de "J'ai dû t'aimer")

Was it a life I had before ?
I hear my steps following yours
On boundless white flag stones
An ancient place we used to know
Could it ever be Atlantis




Before everything's swallowed up... ?




I see huge temples, crowded streets
The deep blue sea, the both of us...

Chorus/
I had your love in other towns
When deserts weren't made of sand
I had your love in other times
On so far away continents
When the sky was innocent
I had your love...
I had your love...

Sitting up far into the night
Our clothes tossing in the wind
Over shiny Old Egypt
Weren't we staring at the sky ?
Can't you remember this young knight
Knelt down into the calm chapell
he prayed in white till morning light
Weren't you the Lady by the gate ?

Chorus/

Maybe Mexico, maybe Grece
We've known so many languages
So many things we've forgotten
Are welling up, I do believe...

Chorus/
