Blue tableau triangled boats
Waves wafting balmy beach
Basking bathers gather there
Summer is already here
As the season starts out
Full of play and promise
The sun warmly beckons
But not for everyone
Scanning the sharp horizon
I come at last to realize
Our fairy tale of amour
Has drifted out to sea
Blue and bluer,
More clearly than ever
I look back on what is lost
Missing you more and more
Great love, least I thought
Bigger than you and me
You were sincere, I know
But doubt betrayed your heart
I reflect again and again
Now the ship has sailed
What more in this world
Could this fool have done?
