France, I Wish You Love

"I Wish You Love"
by C. Trenet

Goodbye
No more leaving with our chins,
This is where our story ends,
Never lovers, never friends.
Goodbye
Let our hearts call it a day,
But before you walk away,
I sincerely want to say:
"I wish you bluebirds in the spring,
To give your heart a song to sing,
And then a kiss,
but more than this,
I wish you love.
And in July, a lemonade
to cool you in some leafy glade.
I wish you health and more than wealth,
I wish you love."
My breaking heart and I agree
That you and I could never be
So with my best,
my very best
I set you free
I wish you shelter from the storm
And a cozy fire to keep you warm,
But most of all, when snowflakes fall,
I wish you love.
