I can’t set you free

mon coeur
I loved you so
my heart
do let him go

if you love somebody set them free *Sting, from the album The Dream of the Blue Turtles, 1985
beautiful words but
not just words
pieces of me
going away

mon coeur
I loved you so
my heart
do let him go

hands, don’t you dare dreaming
of caressing him again, hands,
all that’s left to your tenderness is
waving him good bye

if you love somebody set them free
beautiful words
misleading words
but words
rather than slashing pain

if you love somebody set them free
I can’t set you free
’cause I can’t hold onto you
you’ve hold my love and desire
but you are free

Patricia Kaas – I Wish You Love – album Piano Bar

I wish you bluebirds in the spring
to give your heart a song to sing
I wish you love
All kinds of love

I Wish You Love est l’adaptation anglaise par Albert A. Beach de Que reste-t-il de nos amours ?
