La Valse de l'amour [English translation]

It's the waltz of love

That we sing in the suburbs

It's the romance

That everyone dances

Waiting for love.

There's always a heart

Which is searching for another heart,

So begins

A romance.

It's the waltz of love.

He lived just opposite her house.

He thought : "Oh my God, she's pretty!"

She thought : "There's nothing better than him."

It's the waltz of love

That we sing in the suburbs

It's the romance

That everyone dances

Waiting for love.

There's always a heart

Which is searching for another heart,

So begins

A romance.

It's the waltz of love.

There's always a boy for a girl.

There's always a girl for a boy,

So, for the little that a girl be kind

The story arranges itself in a tender way.*

It's the waltz of love

That we sing in the suburbs

It's the romance

That everyone dances

Waiting for love.

There's always a heart

Which is searching for another heart,

So begins

A romance.

It's the waltz of love.
