Nancy in winter, a wet snow
A girl walks into a cafe
I'm drinking my glass, she sits next to me
I don't know how to approach her
The rain, the good weather, it's nothing great
But it's good to push one's luck
Then comes the moment when we talk about ourselves
And the snow has melted under our steps

We met at the café of the three doves
At the meeting place of homeless loves
We were good, we felt alone in the world
We had nothing, but we had all of life

Nancy in spring, it looks like the South
She loves me and I love her too
We walk and talk, we redo philosophy
I take her picture a thousand times
The small bistros all around the square
In the sun have brought out their terraces
But there was too much light and noise
We were waiting for the night to come

We saw each other at the café of the three doves
At the meeting place of homeless loves
We were good, we felt alone in the world
We had nothing, but we had all of life

Nancy, it's very far, it's at the end of the earth
It moves away with each birthday
But I'm sure, my sorrows remember
Happiness passed through Lorraine
It went away to follow other paths
That don't often cross mine
I've forgotten you, but it's stronger than me
I sometimes think of you

We saw each other at the café of the three doves
At the meeting place of homeless loves
We were good, we felt alone in the world
We had nothing, but we had all of life

We saw each other at the café of the three doves
At the meeting place of homeless loves
We were good, we felt alone in the world
We had nothing, but we had all of life
