Bye Bye Lou [English translation]

Do you remember us when we used to shine?

We met at Place d'Armes

Under the slogans of a demo

First Kisses in the middle of racket

In a rush of naive love

At that time we didn't have anything

But we were discordant in the crowd

And we were promising each other

To never fit in

It is so far from us the time when we used to shine

It is true that we have faded a bit

Like neon lights of a shopping center

We sup at the restaurant on Thursdays

We take pictures of our dishes

Slimming was flabbergasted

The couple is like an SME

And in the crowd you no longer hear

When I tell you "I love you"

What have we done of us?

Yet we used to shine!

Bye Bye Lou I return tomorrow

Where our paths have separated

Bye Bye Lou if you want you join me

Where our paths have separated

Do you remember us when we loved each other?

Oh I know too well that we change

And on the pretext that we evolve

We become idiots and we settle down

Sad reality that kills us

But remember the glimmer

Of our dreams against the flow

Do do something better

At least we really believed in

Do you remember us?

How much we loved each other!

Bye Bye Lou I return tomorrow

Where our paths have separated

Bye Bye Lou if you want you join me

Where our paths have separated

Bye Bye Lou I return tomorrow

Where our paths have separated

Bye Bye Lou if you want you join me
