(Calling you, calling you back to me here.) I stand at the edge of a still pond (calling you, calling you back to me here), my arms reaching out. The mist rises around me and I am calling you across time. Lilies languish in the stillness of a breath And birds float above in a pale blue sky. Chorus: I am calling you, calling you back to me here Lest you walk by and not see me standing near. I am calling you, calling you back to me here Lest you walk by and not feel me wanting…..the touch of your love. (Feel me wanting) Once our hearts sang as one in this Monet garden. We loved and Time cradled us in its palm. But now, the garden has faded. And our song of love is but an echo through the shadows. (the touch of you) and I am calling you, my arms reaching out. Chorus: I am calling you, calling you back to me here Lest you walk by and not see me standing near. I am calling you, calling you back to me here Lest you walk by and not feel me wanting…..the touch of your love. Piano solo. Chorus: I am calling you, calling you back to me here Lest you walk by and not see me standing near. I am calling you, calling you back to me here Lest you walk by and not feel me wanting…..(wanting)

L’Energie de l’amour est eternal (The energy of love is eternal) L’Energie de l’amour est eternal Dans l’esprit du Couer se trove la Verite (In the spirit of the heart, one finds the truth) L’esprit du couer me donne la verite. (The spirit of the heart gives me the truth) L’energie de l’amour est eternal (The energy of love is eternal) L’energie de l’amour est eternal Dans l’esprit du couer se trouve la verite. (In the spirit of the heart, one finds the truth) Dans l’esprit du courer se trove la verite. La verite se cashe profondement en toi. La verite se cashe profondement en toi.

Au dessus des amants qui dormant (Above the lovers in their bed) Les Anges regardent avec les visages qui pleurent. (The Angels watch them with faces that cry). Enlances, les amants sont couches pendant que derriere eux (In ecstatic bliss, the lovers lay entwined, while behind them), Le Chandelle d’Ange brule ou noir (the Angel Candle burns to black) Elle lui a donner son tender Coeur (She gave to him her tender heart), Mais tragicement le sienne etait ailleurs. (But tragically, his was promised elsewhere). Le jour se leve, et dans sa douleur. (The day arrives that in her grief) Elle dois jeter son Prince dans la pluie. (She casts out her Prince into the rain ). Et puis, elle se jete dans la riviere de l’armes (And then, she throws herself into the river of tears.) Riviere de l’armes. ( River of tears). [The Poem in English] Above the Lovers in their bed. The Angels watch with tears of dread Entwined the lovers lay, while to their backs The Angel candle burns to black She gave to him her gentle heart, While his was not there to start The day arrives and in her pain She casts her Prince into the rain And then, she throws herself into the river of tears/river of tears.
