Story behind the song
This island seemed like a perfect romantic getaway and so I imagine a couple that met on holiday but had to go back to their separate lives. Both missing each other as the man relays a message about returning to meet again if she longed for him also and how and how beautiful the time was with her.
Lyrics
Quand votre coeur semble pesant Et vous sentez avoir de la peine S' il te plait pensez a moi. Et Les Iles De La Madeleine Je me souviens du sable, l'ocean Le gros ciel, et le beau temps Votre main dans la mienne en marchant Sur Les Isles De La Madeleine Oh oui j’en I pense souvent Vos cheveux qui volait aux vent Vous n'etiez jamais si belle Que sur Les Isles De La Madeleine Les doux baisers de vos levres Et je gout encore le sel Vos yeux eclairait las brume Sur Les Isles De La Madeleine Si jamais vous pensez a moi Et par hasard vous avez le temps Ont pourrait passer une belle semaine. Sur Les Isles De La Madeleine Translation When your heart seems heavy And you are feeling sorrow If it pleases you think about me. And The Iles Of Madeleine I remember sand, the ocean The big sky, and beautiful weather Your hand in mine while walking On The Isles Of Madeleine Oh yes I think about it often Your hair blowing in winds You never were so beautiful Then on The Isles Of The Madeleine The soft one kiss of your lips And I can still taste the salt Your eyes seem to clear the mist On The Isles Of Madeleine So if you everthink about me And by chance have you the time We could another weekend, On The Isles of Madeleine
