Ballade pour un sourire
Sylvie Vartan
Ballad for a Smile
I waited for you almost a whole year
And now you're here
So fragile still that I’m scared to move
When you fall asleep in my arms
We’re gonna spend a lot of time
Close to each other trying
To understand each other, to love each other
And soon you’ll see
The first flower, how pretty it’ll look in your amazed eyes
And I already know that after I pick it, you’ll come give it to me
You’ll know the rain and the wind
And sunny mornings, the disappointments and friendship
And then one day will come
When you’ll leave, without asking me since that’s just how life is
I won’t be able to help but cry like you do
Today
But for now, all I need is your smile
To wipe away all the clouds in my thoughts
That are only for you
I waited for you almost a whole year
And now you're here
I waited for you almost a whole year
And now you're here...
