Tu étais trop jolie, trop jolie
You were too pretty, too pretty
Mon amour
My love
Ton rire était trop frais
Your laugh was too fresh
Et ton corps trop parfait
And your body too perfect
Tu aimais tant la vie, tant la vie
You loved life so much, life so much
Au grand jour
In broad daylight
Que j´en restais parfois
That I sometimes remained
Tout ému près de toi
All moved near you
Mais le vent s´est levé
But the wind has picked up
Dans nos cœurs étonnés
In our astonished hearts
Et quand l´hiver glacé
And when the frozen winter
Est passé
Happened
Il a tout dévasté
He ruined everything
Emportant mon bonheur, ton bonheur
Carrying my happiness, your happiness
Pour toujours
For all time
Tu étais trop jolie pour moi mon amour
You were too pretty for me my love
Les jours se succèdent au jour
The days follow each other
Et la pluie fait place au soleil
And the rain gives way to the sun
Mais rien jamais rien n´est pareil
But nothing ever nothing is the same
Bien que le monde tourne en rond
Although the world is turning in circles
L´été revient chaque saison
Summer comes back every season
Mais le bonheur est sans retour
But happiness is irretrievable
Tu étais trop jolie, trop jolie
You were too pretty, too pretty
Mon amour
My love
Tu étais une enfant
You were a child
Vivant intensément
living intensely
Moi je n´ai pas compris, pas compris
I didn't understand, didn't understand
Lors qu´un jour
When one day
La vie que je tenais
The life that I held
S´est enfuie à jamais
ran away forever
Les jours, les mois s´en vont
The days, the months go by
De saison en saison
From season to season
Mais dans mon cœur brisé
But in my broken heart
Déchiré
Torn
Ils ont tout dévasté
They destroyed everything
Emportant mon bonheur, ton bonheur
Carrying my happiness, your happiness
Pour toujours
For all time
Tu étais trop jolie pour vivre mon amour
You were too pretty to live my love
