[Ralph McTell - Tous les animaux sont tristes lyrics]
Tous les animaux sont tristes
Après avoir faire 1'amour
Wondering if there was more than this
Wishing there there could be more
just a little more
Harry bought a little boat
And with his boat he made some money
His wife bore him a daughter and two sons
The sun shone and they were never hungry
He bought more boats, a bigger house
And more ships were his goal
But even after making love
There was a darkness in his soul
Tous les animaux sont tristes
Après avoir faire 1'amour
Wondering if there was more than this
Wishing that there could be more
Just a little more
His fortune and his children grew strong
His wife slept sweet contented
He paced the floor till dawn sometimes
Or until the night relented
One morning he heard a song bird sing
A song to take his darkness away
And he put a roof over his garden
So that forever it would stay
Tous les animaux sont tristes
Après avoir faire 1'amour
Wondering if there was more than this
And wishing that there could be more
Just a little more
But the songbird was small and plain
With it's heartache healing song
And he tired of the repetition
And he wished that it was gone
So he tore the roof from off his garden
But he1d fed the bird and it remained
Till he shot a silver arrow through her heart
And his darkness came again
Tous les animaux sont tristes
Après avoir faire 1'amour
Wondering if there was more than this
And wishing that there could be more
Just a little more
In time the children forgot
The loss of their singing bird
And the light came back to their garden
As his emptiness returned
So he sailed away in one of his ships
Married a rich widow in America
In photographs they were always smiling
He needed her but did he
Did he really love her?
Tous les animaux sont tristes
Après avoir faire 1'amour
Wondering if there was more than this
Or wishing that there could be more
Just a little more just a little more
Tous les animaux sont tristes
Après avoir faire 1'amour
Wondering if there was more than this
Or wishing that there could be more
Just a little more
Tous les animaux sont tristes
Après avoir faire 1'amour
Wondering if there was more than this
Or wishing that there could be more
Just a little more
Après avoir faire 1'amour

Wishing there there could be more
