Mon Amant de St. Jean

I don't know why she went to dance
At Saint-Jean, at the musette
But when this guy stole a kiss from me
She shivered, was caught

How not to lose my mind
Held by daring arms
Because one always believes
In sweet words of love
When they are said with the eyes

She, who loved him so much
She found him the most beautiful in Saint-Jean
She remained intoxicated
Without will
Under his kisses

Without thinking, she gave him
The best of her being
Smooth talker every time he lied
She knew it, but she loved him

How not to lose my mind
Held by daring arms
Because one always believes
In sweet words of love
When they are said with the eyes

She, who loved him so much
She found him the most beautiful in Saint-Jean
She remained intoxicated
Without will
Under his kisses

But alas, in Saint-Jean as elsewhere
A promise is just a deception
She was crazy to believe in happiness
And to want to keep her heart

How not to lose my mind
Held by daring arms
Because one always believes
In sweet words of love
When they are said with the eyes

She, who loved him so much
She found him the most beautiful in Saint-Jean
She remained intoxicated
Without will
Under his kisses

She, who loved him so much
She found him the most beautiful in Saint-Jean
He doesn't love her anymore
It's in the past
Let's not talk about it

He doesn't love her anymore
It's in the past
Let's not talk about it
