Enigma - The Page of Cups

For those of you who love the dreamy tracks of Enigma, try listening to the Page of Cups. You can download it here.

Track : Page of Cups
Album : Voyageur
Artist : Enigma



The track is mostly just music, but here are the lyrics: ( It's mostly in French. The English meaning is below it in square brackets. )

Retour a moi mème
[ Come back straight to me ]

je suis tant preoccupèe de toi.
[ I'm so worried about you ]

Speak, understand,
mon amour, my love..
[ my love, my love ]

Come to me,
pas tristesse, pas des chagrin.
[ no sadness, no grief ]

Si tu que m'ai portè de moi
[ It was you, who brought me back to myself ]

mon amour, my love.
[ my love, my love ]

Personally, I feel Michael Cretu ( the creator of Enigma music ) has done a brilliant job with capturing the energies of the Page of Cups. The young page at the seashore, the water and the sand, and his dreams and his innocent and playful soul, captured into music.

The lyrics display the emotional and romantic nature of the Page of Cups. To love and to be loved - this is what the page wants in his life. I can feel how my heart would echo those words in the song if I had fallen in love and my lover had left me.
