Ma Dernière Chanson Pour Toi Lyrics in English Joe Dassin

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ma Dernière Chanson Pour Toi by Joe Dassin from French to English.
Elle était si simple, la première
She was so simple, the first one
Celle des amours buissonnières
The one of carefree loves
Elle ne parlait que de toi
She only talked about you
Et voilà, j'arrive à la centième
And here I am, reaching the hundredth
Elle te dit encore 'je t'aime'
She still tells you 'I love you'
Ma dernière chanson pour toi
My last song for you
La première, je l'ai trouvée sans le vouloir
The first one, I found it unintentionally
Je n'ai eu qu'à écouter ma guitare
I just had to listen to my guitar
J'avais presque perdu la raison
I had almost lost my mind
Dans mon imagination
In my imagination
Tu étais plus belle que toi
You were more beautiful than yourself
Elle était naïve, la première
She was naive, the first one
Je l'ai faite pour te plaire
I made it to please you
Elle ne parlait que de toi
She only talked about you
Et voilà, j'arrive à la millième
And here I am, reaching the thousandth
Elle va te faire de la peine
She will hurt you
Ma dernière chanson pour toi
My last song for you
Je ne sais pas bien comment je vais l'écrire
I don't really know how I'm going to write it
Il me reste trop de choses à te dire
I still have too many things to tell you
Elle sera si triste, la dernière
It will be so sad, the last one
J'aurais déjà dû la faire
I should have already made it
Je recule à chaque fois
I keep hesitating every time
Elle sera terrible, mais quand même
It will be terrible, but still
Elle te dira que je t'aime
It will tell you that I love you
Ma dernière chanson pour toi
My last song for you
