They told me this is where you came a lot
_____
I thought 'don't go' and I came anyway
_____
I wasn't used to getting brushed off anymore
_____
But since you were from the South, I took a Mistral
_____
I wanted anything as long as it was with you
_____
Even become friends, even drive in Paris
_____
You don't need a degree to know
_____
That since you were from the South, you took your time
_____
The girl from the South, she'd put
_____
Her whole homeland into my life
_____
The girl from the South, I waited there for her to leave
_____
The girl from the South, when she was cold
_____
I'd have done anything
_____
Girls from the South, I'm telling you
_____
Then we became pals and pals are less good
_____
But fighting as two, well it's better than alone
_____
Before you it was hard and cold like the night
_____
But since you were from the South, you warmed my life
_____
The girl from the South, she'd put
_____
Her whole homeland into my life
_____
The girl from the South, I waited there for her to leave
_____
The girl from the South, when she was cold
_____
I'd have done anything
_____
Girls from the South, I'm telling you
_____
The girl from the South, she's like a Sun
_____
Who shines and puts a smile on waking
_____
She's my most beautiful view and my most beautiful summer
_____
She put the Mediterranean on my street
_____
And two rings later in silver paper
_____
I shelved our story, that winning Mistral
_____
The day I pleased you still puzzles me
Since you came from the South
