Avec le temps" ("With time") is a 1971 song written, composed and sung by the French artist Léo Ferré. It was recorded in October 1970 for volume 2 of his Amour Anarchie album, but the record label dismissed the song, seen as not fitting the general mood of others songs. It was released as a 45 one year later, then on a compilation LP called Avec le temps : Les chansons d'amour de Léo Ferré.

Album · 1989 · 10 Songs. 10 Songs, 39 Minutes. Released: 31 Dec 1989. See All. Brassens, Brel & Ferré (Les poètes de la chanson française).

French writer and singer Léo Ferré has released literally thousands of songs in his career, and this compilation offers a view of just a small but integral part of it. Ferré, who is the real art singer of the 20th century, whom Jacques Brel, Charles Trenier, Scott Walker, and many others emulated but never really paid their debt to, is an artist so far out on the fringe of what the term means that only the term "French artiste" can apply to him.

Leo Ferre (1916-1993) was a prominent singer in France from the 50s right up the the 1980s. This song is about how love can dissipate with time. As time passes, says the song, our love and passion can often wilt and finally die. However, it is the manner in which Ferre sings the song (as I hope you will see if you watch the video below) that I find absolutely hypnotic. His expression is so poetical; you can really feel the import of each word as he sings it (and each word is so loaded).
