L'âme en peine, il vit mais parle à peine
The soul in pain, he lives but speaks little
Il attend devant cette photo d'antan
He waits in front of that old photo
Il, il n'est pas fou, il y croit, c'est tout
He, he's not crazy, he believes in it, that's all
Il la voit partout, il l'attend debout
He sees her everywhere, he waits for her standing
Une rose à la main, ah, à part elle, il n'attend rien
A rose in hand, ah, apart from her, he waits for nothing
Rien autour n'a de sens et l'air est lourd
Nothing around makes sense and the air is heavy
Le regard absent, il est seul et lui parle souvent
With an absent gaze, he’s alone and talks to himself often
Il, il n'est pas fou, il l'aime, c'est tout
He, he's not crazy, he loves her, that's all
Il la voit partout, il l'attend debout
He sees her everywhere, he waits for her standing
Debout, une rose à la main, non, non, plus rien ne le retient
Standing, a rose in hand, no, no, nothing holds him back anymore
Dans sa love story
In his love story
Dans sa love story
In his love story
Dans sa love story
In his love story
Sa love story
His love story
Prends ma main, promets-moi que tout ira bien
Take my hand, promise me that everything will be alright
Serre-moi fort, près de toi, je rêve encore
Hold me tight, close to you, I still dream
Oui, oui, je veux rester, mais, je n'sais plus aimer
Yes, yes, I want to stay, but I don't know how to love anymore
J'ai été trop bête, je t'en prie, arrête
I've been so foolish, I beg you, stop it
Arrête, comme je regrette, non, je ne voulais pas tout ça
Stop, how I regret, no, I didn't want all this
Je serai riche et je t'offrirai tout mon or
I will be rich and I'll offer you all my gold
Si tu t'en fiches, je t'attendrai sur le port
If you don't care, I'll wait for you at the port
Et si tu m'ignores, je t'offrirai mon dernier souffle de vie
And if you ignore me, I'll gift you my last breath of life
Dans ma love story
In my love story
Dans ma love story
In my love story
Dans ma love story
In my love story
Ma love story
My love story
Une bougie peut illuminer la nuit
A candle can light up the night
Un sourir peut bâtir tout un empire
A smile can build an entire empire
Et il y a toi, et il y a moi
And there's you, and there's me
Et personne n'y croit, mais l'amour fait d'un fou un roi
And no one believes it, but love makes a fool a king
Et si tu m'ignores, j'me battrai encore et encore
And if you ignore me, I'll fight again and again
C'est ta love story
It's your love story
C'est ta love story
It's your love story
C'est l'histoire d'une vie
It's the story of a lifetime
Love story
Love story
Des cris de joie, quelques larmes, on s'en va
Shouts of joy, a few tears, we move on
On vit dans cette love story
We live in this love story
Love story, love story
Love story, love story
Love story, love story
Love story, love story
Love story, love story
Love story, love story
Love story, love story
Love story, love story
Love story, love story
Love story, love story
