Sortilèges Lyrics by Jacques Marchais

Chanson pour la nommer

1965

Dans les jardins de ma mémoire
Sur les eaux calmes d'un étang
Où les licornes viennent boire
J'ai vu tes yeux se reflétant

J'en redoute les sortilèges
Et ne m'approche qu'en tremblant
Pour mieux me laisser prendre au piège
Que j'ai redouté si longtemps

Au jardin de la mandragore
Je m'aventure chaque nuit
Me promenant jusqu'à l'aurore
Malgré ton ombre qui me suit

L'oiseau phénix au vol superbe
Peut disparaître et revenir
Ses cendres répandues dans l'herbe
De toi me font ressouvenir

Au jardin bleu des espérances
J'ai vu danser les paons de nuit
Sur les arpèges du silence
Où vient se perdre mon ennui

Mais au premier souffle de brise
Le son de ta voix me revient
Et le songe soudain se brise
De notre amour ne reste rien
De notre amour ne reste rien
