Je ne parle pas français [English translation]
Je ne parle pas français [English translation]
Somehow, I got lost
I have no plan where to go
Standing there with my little suitcase
Here at the Champs-Elysees
Suddenly you say to me:
"Hello, what are you looking for?"
I say: "Excuse me, I'm sorry
Unfortunately, I can't understand you"
But you just keep speaking
I find it somehow charming
And I draw two cups of coffee
On your hand, with a pen
I don't speak French
But please, do keep talking
Everything you tell me
Sounds so nice somehow
And time just stands still
I wish I could understand you
I don't speak French,
But please, do keep talking
Your long, wild hair
The little scar on your face
Even the dust on your jeans
Has spirit, when you speak
The cigarette tastes like liberty
As long as we both share it
You talk to me in body language
And I read between the lines
I hang on your lips
I don't ever want to leave here
And you keep talking and talking
But I don't understand a word
I don't speak French
But please, do keep talking
Everything you tell me
Sounds so nice somehow
And time just stands still
I wish I could understand you
I don't speak French,
But please, do keep talking
The sun slips behind the houses
Ships go past us
And all that we want
Is for the moment to last forever
Thousands of people around us
They're all talking to each other
But the language, that we speak
Only we two understand
I don't speak French
But please, do keep talking
Everything you tell me
Sounds so nice somehow
And time just stands still
I wish I could understand you
I don't speak French,
But please, do keep talking
