Bruxelles Je T’aime

We don't have the New York towers
We don't have daylight six months a year
We don't have Beaubourg or the Seine
No, we're not the city of love, but, well, you see

And surely from tonight the sky will cover a storm
But after the storm, with beers, people will party

Brussels, I love you, Brussels, I love you. I missed you
Brussels, I love you, Brussels, I love you. You're my favorite
Brussels, I love you, Brussels, I love you. I missed you
You're the most beautiful, yes, you're the most beautiful

Paris calls me when I want to go home
When the gray sky and rain are missing
I feel better when I see you
Cities are beautiful, but I only think of you
When I miss my country and my city
I don't forget you

We don't have the longest of all stories
We know, we haven't always won
And usually, I have the attitude even if it's hard to keep hope
When we're not the first

The Marolles, Flagey, Saint-Gilles, Laeken, to whom I owe my name

Brussels, I love you, Brussels, I love you. I missed you
Brussels, I love you, Brussels, I love you. You're my favorite
Brussels, I love you, Brussels, I love you. I missed you
You're the most beautiful, yes, you're the most beautiful

Paris calls me when I want to go home
When the gray sky and rain are missing
I feel better when I see you
Cities are beautiful, but I only think of you
When I miss my country and my city
I don't forget you

And if one day, they separate and we have chosen a side
It would be the worst nightmare, all for a language story
I have lived my most beautiful stories, in French and in Flemish
Let me say it in Flemish, thank you Brussels for my name
And if one day, they separate and we have chosen a side
It would be the worst nightmare, all for a language story
I have lived my most beautiful stories, in French and in Flemish
Let me say it in Flemish, thank you Brussels for my name

Brussels, I love you, Brussels, I love you. I missed you
Brussels, I love you, Brussels, I love you. You're my favorite
Brussels, I love you, Brussels, I love you. I missed you
You're the most beautiful, yes, you're the most beautiful

When the gray sky and rain are missing

Cities are beautiful, but I only think of you
When I miss my country and my city

Cities are beautiful, but I only think of you
When I miss my country and my city
I don't forget you
