La dolce vita

Christophe Christophe

The Sweet Life

Every endless night, I cruised on my scooter
In my satin vest, it was the sweet life
I was looking for adventure until the early morning
I felt like Ben-Hur as I drove with one hand

But then I met you, and everything changed

The trap was easy, you fell into my arms
We strolled in the city, it was the sweet life
And the way you used to snuggle against the lapel of my off-white tuxedo
Couldn't bore me, even in the darkness
I still see you

Elsa, Elsa, I don't forget you
Elsa

Why did you leave? I didn't understand

I searched for a long time, at night to replace you
And sometimes for a few hours, it was the sweet life
But that way you used to snuggle against the lapel of my off-white tuxedo
I never found it again
The sun sets
on my crumbling memory

Every endless night, I drag an old disarray
In my vest of sorrow, far from the sweet life
And that way you used to snuggle against the lapel of my off-white tuxedo
I want to forget it. But in my broken dreams
I still see you

Elsa, Elsa. You're still there
Elsa. Elsa.
