Ne me quitte pas
Il faut oublier
Tout peut s'oublier
Qui s'enfuit déjà
Oublier le temps
Des malentendus
Et le temps perdu
A savoir comment
Oublier ces heures
Qui tuaient parfois
A coups de pourquoi
Le cœur du bonheur
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
If you go away on this summer day
Then you might as well take the sun away
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
When our love was new and our hearts were high When the day was young, and the night was long And the moon stood still for the night bird's song
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
But if you stay, I'll make you a day
Like no day has been nor will be again
We'll sail on the sun, we'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees and worship the wind
Then if you go, I'll understand
Leave me just enough love to fill my hand
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
If you go away, as I know you will
You must tell the world to stop turning
'til You return again, if you ever do
For what good is love without loving you?
Can I tell you this, as you turn to go
I'll be dying slowly 'til that next hello?
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
But if you stay, I'll make you a night
Like no night has been nor will be again
I'll sail on your smile, I'll ride on your touch
I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much
But if you go, no, I won't cry though the good is gone from the word goodbye
