A quoi ça sert l'amour ? (part. Théo Sarapo)

What's love for?
We always tell
Senseless stories
What's the use of loving?

Love can't be explained!
It's just something
That comes from who knows where
And suddenly takes you

I heard it said
That love makes you suffer
That love makes you cry
What's the use of loving?

What's love for?
To give us joy
With tears in our eyes
It's sad and wonderful!

Yet it's often said
That love is disappointing
That one out of two
Is never happy

Even when it's lost
The love you've known
Leaves you with a taste of honey
Love is eternal!

All this is very nice
But when it's all over
You're left with nothing
But immense sorrow

All that now
Seems tearing you apart
Tomorrow, will be for you
A memory of joy!

In short, if I understood
Without love in life
Without its joys, its sorrows
Have we lived for nothing?

But yes! Look at me!
Every time I believe in it
And I always will
That's what love is for!
But you, you're the last
But you, you're the first!
Before you, there was nothing
With you, I am well!
You're the one I wanted
You're the one I needed!
You who I will always love
That's what love is for!
