It's raining girlsLéo Ferré's version:
Blond and blue ones
It's raining girls
My beloved
Crying girls
And flower girls
It's raining girls
My beloved
But none will have
Your laugh and your arms
But none will have
Your lips
But none will go
As far as you
But none will have
My dreams
It's raining girls
But where are your eyes
And your joyful body
My beloved
It'll have rained so much
In my heart, you know
That I don't see them no more
My beloved
You were for me
My earth and my woods
My country, my faith
My beloved
You were for me
The queen of a king
Who lost for you
His life
It's raining girls
Since your farewell
It's raining girls
My beloved
Yes but little by little
I die at this game
Without sun nor fire
My beloved
Come back, come back to me
Days are months
Come back, come back to me
My beloved
Wasn't forgetting you
While it was raining
Me, I was waiting for you
My beloved
