I don't know why she went dancing
_____
At Saint-Jean, at the musette dances
_____
But when that guy stole a kiss from her
_____
She shivered, was smitten
_____
How could you not lose your head
_____
Held tight by those daring arms?
_____
'Cause you always believe the sweet words of love
_____
When they're spoken with the eyes
_____
She thought he was the handsomest in Saint-Jean
_____
Powerless under his kisses
_____
No longer thinking, she gave him
_____
Smooth-talker every time he lied
_____
She knew it, but she loved him
_____
How could you not lose your head
_____
Held tight by those daring arms?
_____
'Cause you always believe the sweet words of love
_____
When they're spoken with the eyes
_____
She thought he was the handsomest in Saint-Jean
_____
Powerless under his kisses
_____
But alas, in Saint-Jean like elsewhere
_____
A vow is just a sham
_____
She was crazy to believe in happiness
_____
And to want to keep her heart
_____
How could you not lose your head
_____
Held tight by those daring arms?
_____
'Cause you always believe the sweet words of love
_____
When they're spoken with the eyes
_____
She thought he was the handsomest in Saint-Jean
_____
Powerless under his kisses
_____
She thought he was the handsomest in Saint-Jean
He doesn't love her anymore
Let's not talk about it anymore
He doesn't love her anymore
Let's not talk about it anymore
