Edith Piaf l escale

Select language to translate this lyric

The sky is blue, the sea is green
Leave the window open a little
The rolling tide? the horizon
Makes me think? a boy
Who believed neither God nor 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 was not wearing a collar
br/>But a doubtful silk scarf
When I entered, I only saw him
And my heart was dazzled with joy
The sky is blue, the sea is green
br/>Leave the window open a little
He took my hand without a word
He led me out of the bistro
Simply with a tender gesture
br/>It wasn't a problem?
He lived along the quay
I didn't look? ? understand
His room overlooked the port
Soulful sailors were singing outside
A gas burner, a pale halo
Illuminated the sad reduced
What he crushed me against him
I love you
The sky is blue, the sea is green
Leave the window open a little
His kiss me still burning
Is it there? 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 got lost
As for the sailor
No one can say anything more
The sky is low, the sea is gray
Close the window? the breeze
