Pour ton amour qui s'en vas
Moi dans le silence, moi je pense
Toi, tu habites à l'Angleterre
Moi, je suis derrière la mer
Et dans le silence, moi je te cris
Jenny, jenny lady come back
Sans une dresse et sans tendresse
Mon cœur, mon cœur qui se déteste
Jenny, jenny, jenny lady
Jenny, jenny lady come back
Sans une dresse et sans tendresse
Mon cœur, mon cœur qui se déteste
Ta main trop loin de mes mains
Et mes yeux qui te cherchent en vain
Et dans le silence moi je pense
Toi, tu habites à l'Angleterre
Moi, je suis derrière la mer
Et dans le silence, moi je te cris
Jenny, jenny, jenny lady
Jenny, jenny lady come back
Sans une dresse et sans tendresse
Mon cœur, mon cœur qui se déteste
The lyrics of Art Sullivan's "Jenny" portray the feelings of a man who is separated from the woman he loves. He expresses his sadness through the imagery of silence and distance between them. He reminisces about their past moments together and wishes for her to return to him. The lyrics convey a strong sense of yearning, as he talks about being unable to find her and feeling apart from her. He laments the fact that she is far away in England, and he is on the other side of the sea. As he longs for her to return, he describes a feeling of hate towards his own heart for being unable to be with her.
The repetition of the name "Jenny" throughout the song serves as a constant reminder of his love for her. The chorus, "Jenny, jenny, jenny lady, Jenny, jenny lady come back," reinforces his plea for her to return. The use of the French word "tendresse," which means tenderness, adds a layer of emotion to the lyrics, conveying his desire for her love and affection.
Overall, the lyrics of "Jenny" express a deep sense of longing and heartache caused by separation. The use of imagery and repetition creates a melancholic tone that encapsulates the emotions of the singer.

Chất giọng mượt mà, trử tình với lối trình diễn đơn giản. Dàn hỏa âm tinh tế, tương thích với giai điệu đã khiến Art S. bất tử trong danh sách những người ca sĩ hát nhạc Pháp- trong thời kỳ hoàng kim nhất (60s&70s)

Não sendo a minha praia, é de facto memorável e reenvia-me para a minha adolescência em Portugal nos anos 70. Bom homem, paz à sua alma.
