Françoise Hardy
AUTUMN RENDEZVOUS
Paroles anglaises: Meredith, 1966


Now the summer days are ending
Leaves are falling, red and gold
Now the warmth of love is fading
And the nights are getting cold

From the east the wind is blowing
Now the sky's no longer blue
Overhead the clouds are growing
Summer's gone and so are you

You wanted to be free
Love was just a game to you
And you never meant to be
At this autumn rendezvous

All the happiness life gave me
Changed to emptiness today
Now that you no longer love me
Autumn's come, it's here to stay

Life seems empty now without you
It's not easy to forget
I may learn to live without you
But I'll always feel regret

I would cry but it's no good
Tears won't bring you back to me
Though I'd stop you if I could
I can't change what has to be

With the years I'll still remember
And in time the hurt will go
I'll forget this sad September
And be glad I loved you so
