Allons, viens encore, cherie
J'attendrai patiemment sous la lampe dans la vieille avenue
Then I may end
She had things to buy
I close my eyes
Yet I don't know why
I gave her money said she knew someone
And she said she won't be long
Lamplight keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning
Lamplight keep on burning till this love of yours is mine
I sat alone with my thoughts and laughed
Then saw your face in an old photograph
I didn't think that I could live without you but what am I to do
Lamplight keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning
Lamplight keep on burning till this love of yours is mine
Come home again dear I have waited year after year
Under the lamp in our old avenue
If all in the world that's laughing, why should it make us cry
Ah
