La Vie En Rose
Marielle Colbert Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hold me close and hold me fast
This magic spell you cast
This is la vie en rose.
When you kiss me heaven sighs
And though I close my eyes
I see la vie en rose.
When you press me to your heart
I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom
And when you speak, angels sing from above
Everyday words seem to turn into love songs




Give your heart and soul to me
And life will always be la vie en rose.
