Under the walnut tree
My dear little sister and me
The crickets were all around
Big sound!
We laid in the blue grass
Watching the falling stars
That say we’ll meet again
In Paris by the Seine
She whispered when she promised it to me

Under the walnut tree

Under the walnut tree
We shared a cigarette
We could not sleep
In one bed
She was so delicate
And I was inarticulate
But I know we’ll meet again
In Paris by the Seine
She whispered when she promised it to me

Under the walnut tree

Under the shallow sky
My dear little sister and I
In summer behind the church
Birds fly
I was so glad to meet her
One day I’ll eat her!
In Paris by the Seine
We’re gonna meet again
She whispered when she promised it to me

Under the walnut tree
