by Genevois

Je suis loin d'elle
Language: French (Français) 
Je suis loin d'elle, et mon âme attristée
Ne sourit plus à l'attrait du plaisir;
Par les regrets, par la peine agitée,
Elle languit sans force et sans désir;
Je suis loin d'elle.

Je suis loin d'elle, et sa voix douce et tendre
De ses accents ne charme plus mon coeur!
Je ne vois plus sur son front se répandre
Une timide et modeste rougeur.
Je suis loin d'elle.

Je suis loin d'elle; un aimable magie
Ne sème plus de roses de l'avenir.
Je suis rêveur, et dans ma rêverie
Je ne vis plus que le souvenir.
Je suis loin d'elle.
