lyrics

Weeping Willow

won’t you sing for me,
weeping willow
in this strange land
I’ll hang my harp on you,
weeping willow
the river’s overflown
and yet I sit alone
in the midst of swaying leaves

oh weeping willow
sees things come and go
but weeping willow
knows how moments flow
they come and go
come and go
like love lost beneath le Pont Mirabeau

oh saule pleureur
les choses viennent et vont
mais saule pleureur
tu connais comment
les moments coulent
les moments coulent
comme l’eau sous le Pont Mirabeau
