Habanera

Love is a rebellious bird
That no one can tame
And it is in vain that we call it
If it suits him to refuse
Nothing works, threat or prayer
One speaks well, the other remains silent
And it's the other one that I prefer
He said nothing but I like him

Love... Love is a rebellious bird
Love... That no one can tame
Love... And it is in vain that we call it
Love... If it suits him to refuse

Love is a gypsy child
He has never, never known a law
If you do not love me, I love you
If I love you, beware
Beware
If you do not love me
If you do not love me, I love you
Beware
But if I love you, if I love you
Beware

The bird you thought to surprise
Beat its wings and flew away
Love is far, you can wait for it
You no longer wait, it is here
All around you quickly quickly
It comes, goes away, then it returns
You think you have it, it avoids you
You think you avoid it, it holds you

Love... All around you quickly quickly
Love... It comes, goes away, then it returns
Love... You think you have it, it avoids you
Love... You think you avoid it, it holds you

Love is a gypsy child
He has never, never known a law
If you do not love me, I love you
If I love you, beware
Beware
If you do not love me
If you do not love me, I love you
Beware
But if I love you, if I love you
Beware

Love is a gypsy child
He has never, never known a law
If you do not love me, I love you
If I love you, beware
Beware
If you do not love me
If you do not love me, I love you
Beware
But if I love you, if I love you
Beware
