Mon Amour

(Praveen Vava)

A slightly romantic and wistful song about professing love and when it is not heeded or reciprocated to. Draws comparison to the shores on either side of a river when one longs to touch the other.

The silence, the distance
the strange longing between us
like calm waters on a still day
nothing to unite two shores
not full moon’s madness
not even cupid’s magic, mon amour.

My thoughts, mom amour
I throw in the water
hoping they’ll drift to you
but the ripples seldom reach your shore
and the few that do
left knocking at your door
are forever ignored
look this way just once
you’ll find what you’ve been looking for
open your eyes
open your heart
and dare explore
open your eyes
open your heart
and dare explore
I’m right here mon amour.

I fear the day
when the calmness ends
for my ripples in the turbulence
will drown away
you and I are
for the flowing river divides
what becomes of the river
when the two shores unite
you and I will cease to be
becoming sublime
two will become one
till the end of time
open your eyes
open your heart
and dare explore
I’m right here, mon amour.
