Je ne parle pas français [English translation]

I somehow got lost

Have no clue where I'm going

I'm standing with my small suitcase

Here at the Champs-Élysées

Suddenly you speak to me

"Salut, qu'est-ce que vous cherchez?" 1

I say: "Par-don, I'm sorry

Unfortunately I can't understand you"

But you keep talking

I find it somehow charming

And draw two cups of coffee

On your hand

Je ne parle pas français 2

But please keep talking

Everything you're talking about

Sounds somehow nice

And time just stops

I wish I could understand you

Je ne parle pas français 2

But please keep talking

Your long, wilde hair

The small scar on your face

Even the dust on your jeans

Has esprit3, when you speak

The cigarette tastes like liberté4

As long as we share it

You speak in body language

And I read between the lines

I hang on your lips

I don't want to go

And you talk and talk

Even though I can't understand a word

Je ne parle pas français 2

But please keep talking

Everything you're talking about

Sounds somehow nice

And time just stops

I wish I could understand you

Je ne parle pas français 2

But please keep talking

The sun falls behind the houses

Ships pass us by

And all we want

Is for this moment to stay a little longer

Around us over a thousand people

They talk over one another

But the language which we speak

Only we can understand

Je ne parle pas français 2

But please keep talking

Everything you're talking about

Sounds somehow nice

And time just stops

I wish I could understand you

Je ne parle pas français 2

But please keep talking
