Stan Getz-Autumn Leaves
This song is originaly composed by Joseph Kosma. The words came from Jacques Prevert. Yves Montand performed this bit in Marcel Carnes movie "Les Portes de la Nuit" in 1946. The first record came out on Capitol Records, sung by Jo Stafford
The falling leaves
Drift by the window
The autumn leaves
All red and gold
I see your lips
The summer kisses
The sunburned hands
I used to hold.
Since you went away
The days grow long...
And soon I'll hear
Old winter songs
But I miss you most of all
My darling, when autumn leaves start to fall...
C'est une chanson
Qui nous ressemble
Toi qui m'aimais
Et je t'aimais
Nous vivions tous les deux ensemble
Tou qui m'aimais
Moi qui t'aimais
Mais la vie separe
Ceux qui s'aiment
Tout doucement
Sans faire de bruit
Et la mer efface sur le sable
Les pas des amants desunis.
Since you went away
The days grow long...
And soon I'll hear
Old winter songs
But I miss you most of all
My darling, when autumn leaves start to fall...
