Y'avait Du Soleil

In all the noise of the music
Mechanical pianos
Electric carousels
One day at the Saint-Cloud fair
In a game, I see a big guy
With a whole crew
Bang, the egg and bang, the pipe
And the girl hit the mark every time
All around, we were laughing
And since I was so close
He offered me nougat, some sweet bread
Right off the bat, we were two pals

There was sunshine that day
I remember it all, it’s far away now
But it still spins in my head
He was laughing even leaving the fair
A little port, two fingers of echo
Tomorrow we’ll see each other again, buddy
I didn’t want to fall into his arms
Yeah, but here we are
There was sunshine that day

I remember our first rides
On my chill motorcycle
Him in front, me behind
That’s how joy revved in our hearts
Especially our first Sunday
Stopped under the branches
He had a free pass
To give me all the happiness
The ceiling was the sky
So, it felt natural
In the soft grass, we first picked
Flowers, and then love again, again

There was sunshine that day
And the lilacs, I remember it all
How he laughed on the thick grass
Even his laughter was a caress
It sang everywhere in the nests
I sighed: It’s paradise
Tell me we’ll never part
As long as you want
There was sunshine that day

La-la-la
Tell me we’ll never part
As long as you want
There was sunshine that day
