Lowing softly in the night
Through grassy plains with scented dew
I await your call to summon my heart
An echoing memory within my mind
Still I stride, lowing softly in the night
Through grassy caves and canyons
Hiding me from predators swift
Hiding them from me
Are you still there
Mon coeur
I hear your bell
I hear your call
I hear your name upon the wind
Rustling through the tall, sweet grass
Cantilou, Cantilou, floating on deep summer night
You are my love, none other will do
You for me and me for you
I need you more than want you, I want you forevermore
Lowing softly in the night, Cantilou, Cantilou
