La vie en rose
Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong Lyrics

The song La vie en rose was originally written by French singer Edith Piaf in 1945, and has since been covered by many artists including Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. The lyrics express a sense of euphoria and enchantment that the singer experiences when they are with their lover. The first verse talks about the magic spell that the lover has cast on the singer, making everything seem like a rose-colored dream. The second verse talks about how the singer experiences a feeling of heavenly bliss when they are kissed by their lover, and how even with their eyes closed, they can still see and feel this rose-colored dream.

In the third verse, the singer talks about how their lover takes them to a world apart, where roses bloom, and where they can be together in a state of perpetual happiness. The fourth verse talks about how the lover's words are like music to the singer's ears, elevating every ordinary moment into a love song. In the final verse, the singer implores their lover to give their heart and soul to them, promising that if they do so, life will always be like la vie en rose.
