In winter's light
In Montsouris Park 
In Paris
On earth
This earth 
That is a star.
 
 
 
 
Jacques Prévert
 
  
An orange on the table
Your dress on the rug
And you in my bed
 
Sweet gift of the present
Freshness of the night
Warmth of my life.
 

The Garden
 

Thousands and thousands of years
Would not be enough
To tell of 
That small second of eternity
When you held me
When I held you 
One morning 
In winter's light
In Montsouris Park 
In Paris
On earth
This earth 
That is a star.
 
 
 For You My Love

I went to the market, where they sell birds
and I bought some birds
for you
my love
I went to the market, where they sell flowers
and I bought some flowers
for you
my love
I went to the market, where they sell chains
and I bought some chains
heavy chains
for you
my love
And then I went to the slave market
and I looked for you
but I did not find you there 
my love.
