Lyrics
Toute jeune,
En descendant de chez moi l’autre soir,
Je me suis sentie toute jeune.
Mon cœur battait la chanson de l’espoir,
La rue me semblait toute jeune.
Je n’entendais plus le cri des marchands,
Tout me paraissait changé.
Il m’a regardée. Comme il était grand !
Je l’avais souvent rêvé.
Puis il prit ma main sans dire un seul mot
J'étais bouleversée, vraiment.
Je lui souriais, je le trouvais beau,
Il semblait avoir vingt ans.
Il m’a serrée tout contre lui, je l’ai embrassé.
Ma tête a tourné, tourné.
J’aurais voulu pour toujours le garder,
Pourtant, il m’a quittée.
Je n’aurai jamais connu son prénom.
Pour moi, il était l’Amour.
Je ne pense qu'à lui et j’ai des frissons.
Le retrouverai-je un jour?
Je suis toute jeune et pourtant je suis seule
Et je veux rester toute seule.
Toute seule.
Lyrics translation
Any young,
Coming down from my house the other night,
I felt very young.
My heart beat the song of hope,
The street seemed young to me.
I could no longer hear the cry of the merchants,
Everything seemed different to me.
He looked at me. How tall he was !
I had often dreamed of it.
Then he took my hand without saying a word
I was upset, really.
I smiled at him, I thought he was beautiful,
He looked like he was twenty.
He held me all against him, I kissed him.
My head turned, turned.
I wish I'd kept it forever.,
Yet he left me.
I never would have known his first name.
To me, he was love.
I think only of him and I get chills.
Will I ever find him again?
I am very young and yet I am alone
And I want to be alone.
All alone.
