French lyrics and music by Charles L. Trenet
|
|
Goodbye, no use leading with our chins
|
|
This is where our story ends
|
|
Never lovers, ever 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
|
|
But 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
|
|
A cozy fire to keep you warm
|
|
But most of all when snowflakes fall
|
|
I wish you love
|
|
But most of all when snowflakes fall
|
|
I wish you love
|
|
I wish you love
|
|
I wish you love, love, love, love, love
|
|
I wish you love
|
|

I Wish You Love
