Lyrics
We met at La Palette
The day we fell in love.
Oh, how could I forget
The smell of roses from above?
But, suddenly, the sky turned red.
I wasn't ready even then.
Despite it all, you smiled and said,
"When we have peace again, then
Meet me in our French cafe,
Sit at the table for two.
Noon will strike, and I will say,
'Madame, may I sit with you?' "
The sky burned in flames
The day you left, my love.
Oh, how could I forget
The sound of airplanes from above?
Then the letter came.
I'll be ready when I'm dead.
I do not believe what it says.
Peace is here, so come and
Meet me in our French cafe.
Sit at the table for two.
And at noon, you will say,
"Madame, may I sit with you?"
We met at La Palette
The day we fell in love.
Oh, how could I forget? Because
Every day in our French cafe
I sit at the table for two,
A tear at noon on my face ...
Oh love, how I miss you.
