Until It's Time For You To Go

by Françoise Hardy

on Le temps des souvenirs (2005), If You Listen (2000)

you're not a dream, you're not an angel, you're a man
I'm not a queen, I'm a woman, take my hand
we'll make a space in the lives that we planned
and here we'll stay until it's time for you to go

yes, we're different, worlds apart, we're not the same
we laughed and cried at the start like in a game
you could have stayed outside my heart but in you came
and here we'll stay until it's time for you to go

don't ask why
don't ask how
don't ask forever
love me now

this love of mine had no beginning, it has no end
I was an oak, now I'm a willow, now I can bend
and though I'll never in my life see you again
still I'll stay until it's time for you to go

don't ask why of me
don't ask how of me
don't ask forever of me
love me, love me, now

you're not a dream, you're not an angel, you're a man
I'm not a queen, I'm a woman, take my hand
we'll make a space in the lives that we planned
and here we'll stay until it's time for you to go
and here we'll stay until it's time for you to go
