Le Chanson du Soldat
Floorboards creak
Street lights glistening
In your sleep
I hear you whispering
Your trembling spoke
Volumes you fear for me
Keep this medallion close
If you don't hear from me
I don't know when I'll be around again
I'll be around, again
I don't know when I'll be around again
I'll be around, again
Ships that sailed
Early in the morning
I might fail
Without any warning
I don't know when I'll be around again
I'll be around, again
I don't know when I'll be around again
I'll be around, again
I don't know when I'll be around again
I'll be around, again
This might be the end
This might be the end
Go to sleep, sweet little girl
Go to sleep, you'll always be my little girl
Go to sleep, sweet little girl
Go to sleep, you'll always be my little girl
Go to sleep, sweet little girl
Go to sleep, you'll always be my little girl
Go to sleep, sweet little girl
Go to sleep, you'll always be my little girl
Go to sleep, sweet little girl
Go to sleep, you'll always be my little girl
Go to sleep, sweet little girl
Go to sleep, you'll always be my little girl
(I don't know when)
Go to sleep, sweet little girl
Go to sleep, you'll always be my little girl
(I don't know when)
Go to sleep, sweet little girl
Go to sleep, you'll always be my little girl
(I don't know when)
(spoken, in French:)
I knew this moment was going to come
I knew you were going to leave
