Les Champs-Elysées

I strolled on the avenue
With an open heart to the unknown
I wanted to say hello to anyone
To anyone and it was you
I said anything
It was enough to talk to you
To tame you

On the Champs-Elysées
On the Champs-Elysées
In the sun, in the rain, at noon or at midnight
There is everything you want
On the Champs-Elysées

You told me: I have a meeting
In a basement with crazy people
Who live with a guitar in hand
From evening till morning
So I accompanied you
We sang, we danced
And we didn't even think
About kissing

On the Champs-Elysées
On the Champs-Elysées
In the sun, in the rain, at noon or at midnight
There is everything you want
On the Champs-Elysées

Last night two strangers
And this morning on the avenue
Two lovers all dizzy
From the long night
And from the Star to the Concorde
An orchestra with a thousand strings
All the birds of dawn
Sing of love

On the Champs-Elysées
On the Champs-Elysées
In the sun, in the rain, at noon or at midnight
There is everything you want
On the Champs-Elysées
