about

Ryan Furstenberg wrote this song of love and redemption in 2016. Avignon is a lovely medieval walled city in southern France.

lyrics

We used to say nothing lasts forever, but now I've stayed with you a long long time
I still love you with the flame that washed my shame on the banks of that borderline

Oh, Avignon
Oh, Avignon
Every good thing can't be undone
Oh, Avignon

You may over-
You may under-
estimate me, I won't wonder
We are the rolling voice of thunder bringing down Babylon

Oh, Avignon
Oh, Avignon
Every good thing can't be undone
Oh, Avignon

I may regret what I never did, and I may feel shame for things I've done
But I'd never take back the love we found by the city of Avignon

Oh, Avignon
Oh, Avignon
Every good thing can't be undone
Oh, Avignon

Oh, Avignon
Oh, Avignon
Every good thing can't be undone
Oh, Avignon
