Trousse chemise [English translation]

In the small wood of Trousse Chemise

When the sea is gray and we are a little gray also

In the small wood of Trousse Chemise

We made mistakes , do you remember?, both of us

We went to Trousse Chemise

Stalked by old ladies behind their shutters

We went with a flower on the ear

With two bottles of real Muscadet

we swam in Trousse Chemise

The beach deserted was for no one but us

we bathed in the discovery

The sea was green, and you were a little green

We had in the woods of Trousse chemise

Lunch on the grass, but then suddenly

I wanted in a great momentum

to conjugate the verb to "love the next one".

And I knocked down in Trousse Chemise

Despite your prayers to reluctantly

And I spilled the wine from our glasses

Your light dress and your seventeen

When we got back from Trousse Chemise

The sea was gray, you were no longer gray

When we returned life took you back...

You packed your suitcase.. you never came back.

They cut the wood in Trousse Chemise

It rains on the beach off-seasons

They cut wood, the wood of the cage

Where my heart was too nice in its prison.
