Tous Les Divorcés

There’s the first love, that’ll be the first heartbreak
It’ll last forever, at least for eternity
We’re a bit more than just a guy, she’s more than all the women
Not quite grown-ups yet, but it brings us to tears

When you love for the first time, it’s for a lifetime
You realize the second time, that it’s not the last yet
Those who didn’t believe, in unkeepable vows
They won’t fall hard, but we don’t rise high, when we’re sensible

All the divorced, loved each other, tenderly
Every other weekend, they tell their kids
What’s more important
The first love or the most recent

There’s the second love, less spectacular
But still worth the trip, nothing to envy from its big brother
We gratefully take what life gives back
We want to believe but we suspect this time it’s the one

There’s the third love, now we know the song
And let’s not think, that passions are done
It’s just as consuming, as the ones before
Just because we love multiple times, doesn’t mean we don’t really love

All the divorced, loved each other, tenderly
Every other weekend, they tell their kids
What’s more important
The first love or the most recent
What’s more important
The first love or the most recent

There’s the fourth, the fifth, the sixth
You stop the elevator at the floors that suit you
Some only know one, the one from the start
Others know plenty, never admit defeat

There are the unfortunate, who need a hug
Who haven’t known love and think they don’t deserve it
That’s false, there’s no age, to find your soulmate
Besides, I often tell my wife not to lose hope

All the divorced, loved each other, tenderly
Every other weekend, they tell their kids
What’s more important
The first love or the most recent

All the divorced, loved each other
All the divorced, loved each other
All the divorced, loved each other
All the divorced, loved each other

All the divorced, loved each other
All the divorced, loved each other
All the divorced, loved each other
All the divorced, loved each other
All the divorced, loved each other
