far from the Eiffel Tower
come closer out of vision
The night brings us home,
where we can be skin and bone
he buys cigarettes downstairs
then past the Chinese market
For bread and pâté au chocolat,
wake me up while I still have
We'd our breakfast in bed,
In the morning those cries
The clouds fall down, the sun shines
In the morning those cries
The clouds part and the sun shines
Come shower, get dressed,
We walk up to the doorstep,
and a song of yours and mine
and our love just beginning
J 'aime, j 'aime, j 'aime, j 'aime
Oh, gem, gem, gem, je t 'aime
