J'aurais aime ma belle T'ecrire une chanson Sur cette melodie Recontree une nuit J'aurais aime ma belle Rien qu'au point d'Alencon T'ecrire un long poeme T'ecrire un long "Je t'aime" Je t'aurais dit "amour" Je t'aurais dit "toujours" Mais de mille facons Mais par mille detours Je t'aurais dit "partons" Je t'aurais dit "brulons" Brulons de jour en jour De saisons en saisons Mais le temps qui s'allume L'idee sur la papier Le temps de prendre une plume Le temps de la tailler Mais le temps de me dire Comment vais-je l'ecrire Et le temps est venu Ou tu ne m'aimais plus. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I would have loved my darling To write you a song On this melody Discovered one night I would have loved my darling Nothing more than romantic city of Alencon To write you a long poem To write you a long "I love you" I would have told you "love" I would have told you "always" But by a thousand ways But by a thousand detours I would have told you "Let's leave" I would have told you "Let's burn" Let's burn from day to day From season to season But the time which illuminates The idea on paper The time to take a pen The time to prepare it But the time to tell myself How am I going to write it And the time came Where you loved me no longer. |
