L'amour en France [English translation]

Your eyes in my eyes

And your hand in my hand:

That is love in France.

A bike on the edge of the road:

That is love in France.

All the mandolins on Earth

Play our melody,

We close our eyes

To be in Italy.

The shining Sun,

The singing birds:

That is love in France.

And you, who love me

As much as I love you,

You know that as long as there are

Hearts pulsing

For a song

With daily words

That will always be love in France.

The spring, summer, autumn

And then winter all pass by,

I am always with you

By the sea,

You are the most beautiful woman,

You will always be the one with

Which it will never be over.

The aeroplane that brings you midday:

That is love in France.

The waves that rock our flowery dreams:

That is love in France.

When, sometimes, it happens

To have a fight out of jealousy,

We know that we will

Make peace anyway.

A crying baby,

A hand that's reaching out:

That is love in France.

And you, who love me

As much as I love you,

You know that as long as there are

Hearts pulsing

For songs

With daily words

That will always be love in France.

An accordion

Playing at a ball:

That is love in France.

A girl is leaving you and that hurts you:

That is love in France.

All the mandolins on Earth

Play our melody,

We close our eyes

To be in Italy.

That is love in France...
