Pont Mirabeau Lyrics - Pogues

Below the Pont Mirabeau 

Slow flows the Seine 

And all our love's together 

Must I recall again 

Joy would always follow 

After pain 

Hands holding hands 

Let us stand face to face 

While underneath the bridge 

Of our arms entwined slow race 

Eternal gazes flowing 

At waves pace 

Let night fall, let the hours go by 

The days pass on and here stand I 

Love runs away 

Like running water flows 

Love flows away 

But oh, how slow life goes 

How violent is hope 

Love only knows 

Let night fall, let the hours go by 

The days pass on and here stand I 

The days flow ever on 

The weeks pass by in vain 

Time never will return 

Nor our loves burn again 

Below the Pont Mirabeau 

Slow flows the Seine 

Let night fall, let the hours go by 

The days pass on and here stand I
