Me Voilà Seul
Charles Aznavour
Alone Here I Am
Here I am alone, Suddenly alone
It had to happen one day
I couldn't fill the void
That had grown between us
Here I am alone, it was written
I wasn't easy to live with
Even though married, I loved being free
So of course she left
I feel silly and embarrassed
Standing in the middle of my room
Not knowing what to do with my limbs
Like a child with a heavy heart
Here I am alone, I searched for her
With my damn character
I wonder what I'm going to do
Now that I've messed everything up
Women, they don't understand us
I drank a little, oh! not a lot
But even a little she didn't like
And I had all my old buddies
It's true they're not always great
But my buddies
But I saw them, she didn't like it
Here I am alone, in this setting
Where everywhere my eyes land
There are memories that come up
As if to tear me apart even more
Here I am alone, serves me right
Happiness at the bottom, you have to earn it
When you ignore it, it goes bankrupt
That's when you regret it
I have flaws, who doesn't
Changing isn't always easy
We act like fools
We think we're strong and then, there
Here I am alone, I did everything for it
So I don't think she'll come back
I think I'll be very sad
Because my heart is bursting with love
I have flaws, who doesn't
Changing isn't always easy
Here I am alone
Alone
