Lyrics Marianne Faithfull

Marianne Faithfull

Prussian Blue

Walking over the bridge

To l'Eglise Américaine

65 Quai d'Orsay

The river runs by

The sky around la Sainte-Trinité

Cerulean blue and scarlet lay

Can I make (get, see, bear, stand) it for just one day?

I listen to the rain('s) falling gray to the ground

I can feel (hear) my heart's calling many hearts around

Dreams the color of jade

The church in gold

Quai d'Orsay rose doré

I'm going upstairs

To take my place

Shadows of violet and Prussian blue

I'm walking along

Leaving the church

Feeling better in my heart of hearts

The sun sets chrome yellow with a touch of white

Clouds of light and leaden gray
