Paul Arnold

Bonsoir dame

(Chorus:)
Bonsoir dame, I love you so much
Bonsoir dame, I long for your touch
Bonsoir dame, although I am shy
Bonsoir dame, good night, not good-bye.

In a green wood, close to our village
a quiet pool lies still and deep
The evening birds and forest sounds
have gently lured my love to sleep.

Chorus

Sing softly now and don't awake her
She doesn't know how my heart aches
I never cared to say: I love you
I'll tell her now before she wakes.

Chorus

It seems a pity now to wake her
I'd rather stay here and pretend
We could only stay forever
And then her dreams would never end.
 
Chorus (bis)
