The sky is blue the sea is green
Leave the window open a little
The flow rolling on the horizon
Makes me think of a boy
Who doesn't believed neither God nor the devil
I met him towards the north
One evening of stopover at a port
In an abominable bastringue
The air smelled of sweat and 'alcohol
He wasn't wearing a false collar
But a questionable silk scarf
When I entered I only saw him
And my heart was dazzled
Of joy
The sky is blue the sea is green
Leave the window open a little
He took my hand without a word
He led me away ®na out of the bistro
Simply with a tender gesture
It wasn't complicated
He lived on the edge of the quay
I didn't look © to understand
His room overlooked the port
Drunk sailors were singing outside
A gas burner a pale halo
lit up the sad dungeon
He crushed me against him
I love you
The sky is blue the sea is green
Leave the window open a little
His kiss burns me always
Is this what they say about love
His boat anchored in the harbor
Chasing the shadows of the night
At the dawn of day he fled
To join his comrades
I saw him go on deck
And if I don't know his name
I know the name of the ship
A ship that sailed lost
As for the sailor I no longer dare him
Nothing to say
The sky is low the sea is gray
Close the window to the breeze
