La valse des lilas
Michel Legrand
The Lilac Waltz
You can't live like you do
With a memory that's nothing but a regret
Without a friend and without another secret
Just a few tears
For these few pages of melancholy
You closed the book of your life
And you thought everything was over
But all the lilacs
All the lilacs of May
Will never end
Will never end
Celebrating the hearts of people who love each other, love each other
As long as time goes on
Until the last
Until the last spring
The sky will be
The sky will be twenty years old
The lovers will be just as much
If you see the days getting lost in the depths of the nights
Memories abandoning your life
It's because they can't do anything against forgetting
