I remember jolie demoiselle
The last summer, comme tu étais belle
I remember nous, la Tour Eiffel
So beautiful with your sac Chanel
Sur le pont de la Seine
Let's do it again, again, again, again
You gave me a rendez-vous
What is it, what is it?
Je le cherche à toi dans les rues
Je ne suis pas venir car tu ne l'es plus
Je le regarde partout, where are you?
My heart is bleeding, oh, I miss you
L'amour à la française
Let's do it again, again, again, again
You gave me a rendez-vous
Et je cours, je cours, je cours
I've lost l'amour, l'amour, l'amour
Je suis perdu, here without you
And I'm crazy, seul à Paris
Je tu le manques, sans toi I can't
Et sous la pluie, I feel sorry
Champs-Élysées, alone la nuit
Le Moulin Rouge, I feel guilty
Et le soleil est plus brûlant que les oiseaux
Et dans le ciel, I miss you so
A souvenir, a rendez-vous
Des fleurs, des fleurs, des fleurs for you
Je tu le manques, sans toi I can't
Et sous la pluie, I feel sorry
Je suis perdu, here without you
And I'm crazy, seul à Paris
I remember jolie demoiselle
The last summer, comme tu étais belle
I remember nous, la Tour Eiffel
So beautiful with your sac Chanel
L'amour à la française
C'est que je t'aime, je t'aime, je t'aime, je t'aime
I give you a rendez-vous
Et je cours, je cours, je cours
I've lost l'amour, l'amour, l'amour
Je suis perdu, here without you
And I'm crazy, seul à Paris
Je tu le manques, sans toi I can't'
Et sous la pluie, I feel sorry
Champs-Élysées, alone la nuit
Le Moulin Rouge, I feel guilty
Et le soleil est plus brûlant que les oiseaux
Et dans le ciel, I miss you so
A souvenir, a rendez-vous
Des fleurs, des fleurs, des fleurs for you
Je tu le manques, sans toi I can't
Et sous la pluie, I feel sorry
Je suis perdu, here without...[1]
I remember beautiful girl
The last summer, how beautiful you were
I remember us, the Eiffel Tower
So beautiful with your Chanel handbag
On the bridge of the Seine
Let's do it again, again, again, again
You gave me a rendez-vous
What is it, what is it?
I am looking for you in the streets
I didn't come because you aren't there anymore
I'm looking everywhere, where are you?
My heart is bleeding, oh, I miss you
Love the French way
Let's do it again, again, again, again
You gave me a rendez-vous
And I run, I run, I run
I've lost love, love, love
I'm lost, here without you
And I'm crazy, alone in Paris
I miss you, without you I can't
And under the rain, I feel sorry
Champs-Élysées, alone at night
The Moulin Rouge, I feel guilty
And the sun is burning stronger than the birds
And in the sky, I miss you so
A souvenir, a rendez-vous
Flowers, flowers, flowers for you
I miss you, without you I can't
And under the rain, I feel sorry
I'm lost, here without you
And I'm crazy, alone in Paris
I remember beautiful girl
The last summer, how beautiful you were
I remember us, the Eiffel Tower
So beautiful with your Chanel handbag
Love the French way
It's that I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
I give you a rendez-vous
And I run, I run, I run
I've lost love, love, love
I'm lost, here without you
And I'm crazy, alone in Paris
I miss you, without you I can't
And under the rain, I feel sorry
Champs-Élysées, alone at night
The Moulin Rouge, I feel guilty
And the sun is burning stronger than the birds
And in the sky, I miss you so
A souvenir, a rendez-vous
Flowers, flowers, flowers for you
I miss you, without you I can't
Under the rain, I feel sorry
I'm lost, here without...
