Paris Bells - Marianne Faithfull

Past the café shutters down, No one stirs in the town. The morning after the rain The barges move on the seine. Down the avenue lined with trees Paris bells ring on the breeze Paris bells ring on the breeze. Dawn is breaking, birds start to sing, Sun is rising, warms everything. The echo of […]

As Tears Go By - Marianne Faithfull

It is the evening of the day, I sit and watch the children play. Smiling faces i can see But not for me, I sit and watch as tears go by. My riches can’t buy everything, I want to hear the children sing. All i hear is the sound Of rain falling on the ground, […]

Can’t You Hear My Heartbeat - Marianne Faithfull

Every time i see you looking my way, Baby, baby, can’t you hear my heartbeat ? In the park or walking down the high way, Baby, baby, can’t you hear my heartbeat ? And when you move up closer to me I get a feeling that’s oo-wee. Can’t you hear the pounding of my heartbeat […]

Plaisir D’amour - Marianne Faithfull

Time Takes Time - Marianne Faithfull
