The Collection Of Marie Claire

Marie-Claire, j'ai marche toute la soiree

Ton portrait toujours pres de mon coeur

Je veux te dire que je t'ai reve tout l'ete

Marie-Claire, s'il te plait, n'est pas peur.

I brought you some colors to paint with

On the nights when it's cold outside

And I'll shoot that blue-eyed son of a bitch

Cause it's me who'll have you for his bride

Marie-Claire, it's no good la vie d'une danseuse

Tous les yeux, they're on you, I can't stand

Don't you know that you are my amoureuse.

Marie Claire, let them all be damned.

My hands have bled to the bone

I brought you a drawing to see

Of the cabin made of sticks and stones,

And there you will learn to love me.

Marie Claire, j'ai sale beaucoup d' poissons

Et les bois du Nord maintenant sont tranquilles

Je te promet de ne pas boire la boisson

Oublie le Montreal, la vieille ville.

As I lay you there on the backseat,

All in white there, dans mon char

Take your time Marie Claire and sleep,

As I bring you up to Labrador.
