The falling leaves drift by my window,
the autumn leaves of red and gold.
I see your lips, the summer kisses,
the sunburned hands I used to hold.
Since you went away the days grow long,
and soon I'll hear old winter's song.
But I miss you most of all, my darling,
when autumn leaves begin to fall.
C'est une chanson qui nous ressemble.
Toi, tu m'aimais et je t'aimais.
Nous vivions tous les deux ensemble,
toi qui m'aimais, moi qui t'aimais.
Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s'aiment,
tout doucement, sans faire de bruit.
Et la mer efface sur le sable
les pas des amants désunis.
Since you went away the days grow long,
and soon I'll hear old winter's song.
But I miss you most of all, my darling,
when autumn leaves begin to fall.
