Lyrics

Elle a dit: «Tu sais, nous deux, c’est fini!
A quoi? A sert de s’accrocher?
Il faut savoir garder sa dignit?,
Et puis… J’aime pas voir un homme pleurer…
Il vaut mieux qu’on se quitte bons amis,
Comprends, aide-moi, et souris… «Alors il a fait comme elle demandait:

Alors d’un coup, il a compris

Aaaah-aaaah-aaaah…
Tout seul il pleure dans l'? Ternit…

Understand, help me, and smile ... " so he did as she asked:
Before her, as he left, he sang

She said, " You know, both of us, it's over!
To what? What's the point of holding on?
Do you have to know how to keep your dignity?,
And then... I don't like to see a man cry ... " when did he go to bed? Alone in his big bed,
Then suddenly he understood
What? A would be harder than he thought,
And all alone in his bed, he cried…
Ah-ah-ah…
He said, " I can't believe it's over!
I feel like I'm gonna hang on…
Is that tr? Is it good to keep his dignity?
And? It was so good to cry.
When I think of the day that will rise,
To the things I'll have to hide,
I feel that I can never get used to it ... " to finish with dignity, it was…
Aaaah-aaaah-aaaah…
Alone he cries in the? Tarnish…
