Michèle [English translation]

You were barely 15 years old

Your wore ribbons in your hair (6)

You lived close to

The Grand Palace

I called you every morning

And together we took the train

To go to School

Seated next to you

I waited at recess

To go to a Cafe

Drink a (hot) chocolate

And then embrace you (1)

One day you turned 17 years old

Your hair flew in the wind

And often you sang

Oh! Yesterday!

Those Thursday afternoons

We went to a gray cinema (2)

To see the films of Marilyn

Michele, a night in December

The snow fell on the roofs

We were you and me

Falling asleep together

For the first time

The time passed sweetly (3)

And (the) Prince Charming was dethroned (4)

Who offered you trips

In his clouds

I was told that you're married

In April last spring

That you live in Paris

Michele, It's been good so far

The streets, the joyful cafes

Even the trains of the suburbs

Are making fun of you, mocking me

Michele, It's been good so far

The streets, the joyful cafes

Even the trains of the suburbs

Are making fun of you, mocking me...

Are mocking me !
