Elle a dit: 'tu sais, nous deux, c'est fini!
She said, 'You know, the two of us, it's over!
A quoi? a sert de s'accrocher?
To what? has served to hang on?
Il faut savoir garder sa dignit?
Do you have to know how to keep your dignit?
Et puis... j'aime pas voir un homme pleurer
And then... I don't like to see a man cry
Il vaut mieux qu'on se quitte bons amis
It's better if we leave each other good friends
Comprends, aide-moi, et souris
Understand, help me, and smile
Alors il a fait comme elle demandait
So he did as she asked
Devant elle, en partant, il chantait
In front of her, as he left, he sang
L?-l?-l?
L?-l?-l?
Elle a dit: 'tu sais, nous deux, c'est fini!
She said, 'You know, the two of us, it's over!
A quoi? a sert de s'accrocher?
To what? has served to hang on?
Il faut savoir garder sa dignit?
Do you have to know how to keep your dignit?
Et puis... j'aime pas voir un homme pleurer
And then... I don't like to see a man cry
Quand il s'est couch? seul dans son grand lit
When he went to bed? alone in his big bed
Alors d'un coup, il a compris
So all of a sudden, he understood
Que? a serait plus dur qu'il ne pensait
That? a would be harder than he thought
Et tout seul dans son lit, il pleurait
And all alone in bed, he cried
Il a dit: 'j'peux pas croire que c'est fini!
He said: 'I can't believe it's over!
Je sens que je vais m'accrocher
I feel like I'm going to hang on
C'est tr? s beau de garder sa dignit?
Is that a very good thing? s beautiful to keep his dignit?
Et? a fait tellement de bien de pleurer
And? did so much good to cry
Quand je pense au jour qui va se lever
When I think of the day that's going to rise
Aux choses qu'il me faudra cacher
To the things I'll have to hide
Je sens que j'pourrai jamais m'habituer
I feel like I'll never get used to it
Pour finir dignement, il s'est
To finish with dignity, he
Aaaah-aaaah-aaaah
Aaaah-aaaah-aaaah
Tout seul il pleure dans l'? ternit?
All alone he cries in the? Tarnishes?
