Jour De Ma Vie

Lyrics

The night was dark,
it was pitch dark.
But it was such a night,
that they´ve been waiting for,
yes, it was such a night,
that they had planned to fly.
The day had come.
Jour de ma vie:
It was their sign.

Jour de ma vie!
From that day on
we blank the past.
Our folie won.
Adieu ennui!
Sasha, let´s run!

She might be late,
prevented thus
Might what? Might what?
Have missed her way!
Midnight has come.
The place is right.
Blackfriars´ inn.
The horses wait.
Jour de ma vie:
It was their sign.

Jour de ma vie!
from that day on
we blank the past.
Our folie won.
Adieu ennui.
Sasha, come on!

It´s silent still.
Silence is death.
Pitch dark is death.
I should have known.
Known what? Known what?
Love is a fraud.
And words won´t help.
And words won´t help.
Jour de ma vie:
It was their sign.

Jour de ma vie!
from that day on
we blank the past.
Our folie won.
Adieu ennui.
Sasha, you´re gone!

About this song

Orlando, under the cloak of a pitch-dark night, waits anxiously for Sasha to arrive at Blackfriars’ inn. As midnight strikes, the anticipated escape turns into a sobering realization of the elusive and often deceitful nature of love…
