Lyrics Mon vieux quartier Esther Ofarim

 856

Mon vieux quartier


On s'est connu près du vieux canal
Ou l'amour un jour m'a fait mal
Tu dormais sous un ciel sans étoiles
Mon vieux quartier, mon vieux quartier

Un nuage te couvrait de laines
Une horloge agitait ses chaines
Pour les filles qui trainaient leurs peines
Mon vieux quartier, mon vieux quartier

Un chaland a jetté son cri
Un train a troué la nuit
Le printemps s'est noyé de pluie
Mon vieux quartier, mon vieux quartier

Pour mon chagrin, pour mes yeux qui pleurent
Pour le prix d'un amour qui meurt
Je voudrais voire saigner ton cœur
Mon vieux quartier, mon vieux quartier

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics MON VIEUX QUARTIER of ESTHER OFARIM is also present in the album Esther ofarim (1965)
