La Grande Dame Songtext
von Hugh Cornwell

La Grande Dame is swimming free
She is watching over me
Servants at her beck and call
Lifting her above the squall

Breakfast, lunch and tea for two
Love was spread amongst the few
Sharing clothes and pass me down
Running wild across the ground

Did you know La Grande Dame?
Did you kiss her hand?
Life smiled on La Grande Dame


La Grande Dame is out of view
She is watching over you
Waves are breaking on the shore
She is there forever more

When will I next see her smile?
It′s been many troubled miles
She still lingers by the sea
I won't be long, wait for me

Did you know La Grande Dame?
Did you kiss her hand?
Life smiled on La Grande Dame
Did you kiss her hand?
Life smiled on La Grande Dame
