L’amour!
L’amour!
Refrain:
Oh, love is ever the Gypsy child,
There are no rules he’s ever cared about,
If you don’t love me then I’m beguiled! But if I love
you, you had best watch out!
Second Refrain: If you don’t love me,
If you don’t love me, I’m beguiled!
But if I love you,
If I love you, you had best watch out! (2X)
The
bird you thought that you could surprise
|
He’s
flapped his wings and flown away
Love’s too distant, so rest your eyes;
And search no more, love is here today!
All around you, but changing shape,
It comes, it goes, and then returns.
You think you’ve grasped it, but love escapes;
Think you’ve avoided it – you’ll never learn!
L’amour! L’amour!
L’amour! L’amour! Repeat
Refrain.
Repead Second Refrain. (2X)

Love
is just a rebellious bird
That no one can ever hope to tame,
Do not call him, you won’t be heard
He may refuse you, if that’s his game.
Nothing moves him; no threat, no plea,
One man’s mute, another talks with glee
Oh it’s the first one I’d rather see
For he said nothing, but he pleases me.
L’amour!
L’amour!
