To France with love
I had a dream it was something.
I felt the bond a connection a past a presence.
Legends told of greats who fell at the hands
of pompous Napoleon devilish little man.
I cry and wonder why
how great living the life
and spoils of the royal.
Now that all that remains is scattered
around the globe.
I wipe a tear leaving your shores of Marseilles
on a ship as a commoner.
to an uncertain destiny.
No castles no longer for we.
I felt the bond a connection a past a presence.
Legends told of greats who fell at the hands
of pompous Napoleon devilish little man.
I cry and wonder why
how great living the life
and spoils of the royal.
Now that all that remains is scattered
around the globe.
I wipe a tear leaving your shores of Marseilles
on a ship as a commoner.
to an uncertain destiny.
No castles no longer for we.
