Ne Dis Rien






I would have run if I had seen you coming.
   I would have fled if you gave me the chance.
Now you’re the French pop tune I can’t stop humming,
   The song that magics me into a trance.
Don’t say a thing; just lead me and I’ll follow.
   Don’t be afraid; just put your hand in mine.
We’ll waltz to where there’s nothing false or hollow;
   I’m with you to the dark end of the line.
Today’s for life—forget about tomorrow.
   No more sad solos—now it’s all duets.
Tonight our love will dig a grave for sorrow
   And when the night ends, we’ll have no regrets.
      When Life sings out, it's folly not to dance;
      When Love says “Now!” we have to take the chance.
