Champs élysées (english version)

I was walking on
the street, my heart opened for the unknown
I just felt like saying hello to somebody. And that's how I met
you
I said nothing special to you
but it was enough to make you confiding
On the Champs-Elysees
whether the sun is shining, it's raining, it's midday or midnight
Everything can happen to you on the Champs-Elysees
You told me: "I'll meet up with some guys in the cell
who spend the whole day with a guitar in the hand."
That's why I was walking along with you, we were singing, we were
dancing
but we didn't think of kissing
On the Champs-Elysees
whether the sun is shining, it's raining, it's midday or midnight

Everything can happen to you on the Champs-Elysees
Last evening we were nothing but two strangers and today
on the street, two lovers, completely dopy of a long night
From Etoile* to Concorde**, an orchestra of thousand chorals
All the birds are singing of love in the morning
On the Champs-Elysees
whether the sun is shining, it's raining, it's midday or midnight

Everything can happen to you on the Champs-Elysees
