Éric Rohmer is dead
And I want more
Of his lovers
On the commuter trains
Éric Rohmer is dead
And I want more
Parisian parks
Where we hold hands
Walks by the sea
In the voice of Marie Rivière
Meetings in cafes
From the navel of Haydée
From his philosophy teachers
People reading in the metro
Éric Rohmer is dead
And I want more
Plastic trees
Math discussions
Of all these crying girls
Places and times
Cigarette smoke
Of the girl on a moped
Boys who talk too loud
At the Picasso museum
Éric Rohmer is dead
And I want more
Student rooms
Large apartments,
Of all the libraries
De Sabine and her steak
Beige turtlenecks
Nevers under the snow
Brown and curly girls
Who prefer older men
Éric Rohmer is dead
And I want more
There are on the shelf
In the Éric Rohmer department
Thirty orphans
Who are waiting for the next
Thirty orphans
Who are waiting for the next one.
