Aimer d'amour [English translation]

Sweet love - to love, like I love you

Sweet love - to love, like I love you

Since you have been around

I only think of you

You take up all my time

You're all that I expect1

I so need to love you

to understand you, to be loved

to take you in my arms

And surely you know why

Sweet love - to love, like I love you

Sweet love - to love, like I love you

We must walk hand in hand

to better get one another2

to avoid forgetting

all that comes from the past

And once again

It might be the last time

It is easy for you

and it is, for me, too3

Sweet love - to love, like I love you

Sweet love - to love, like I love you

Love doesn't often come

knocking at the right time4

When it does come to you

' gotta know how to receive it5

We have that special chance

since we are together

No need to ponder what to do

just let Time do its thing6

Sweet love - to love, like I love you

Sweet love - to love, like I love you

1. you to be2. comprehend what the other means3. lit. "It is easy for me4. implied "knocking on one's door"5. here, the omission of the "you" works both to mirror the original ("faut", short for "il faut") and to round the syllables to 8, instead of an uneven 96. lit. one must give time for Time to act
