Femme avec toi [English translation]

I used to spend ° my time° then with rather bizarre

Men, as flimsy ° as the ash of their cigars.

They would set up parties° in the Versailles palace,

Theirs were only °some straw palaces..

I was wasting my time ° in that gilded desert,

Was alone ° when I met you some night,

The others were sleeping, but YOU were alive..

You were merry° as an Italian

When he knows° he will get some loving and some wine

And I, for the very first time

I felt myself at last a

Woman, woman° a woman with you

Woman, woman° a woman with you..

You looked like ° you belonged to a story of yore

Where used to° gallop all-white horses,

You had a serious face°

but your smile was so bright

I walked up ° directly to your light.

And today°no matter what,

We are making love,

Close to you , the time spent feels so short,

Because you are a man and that you are so kind

and that you know ° how to °make life shine.

YOU are merry ° as an Italian

when he knows° he will get some loving and some wine.

It's still like° the very first time

when, at last, I could become a

Woman,woman, a woman with you..

Woman,woman, a woman with you..
