la dame en bleu
Michel Louvain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
La dame en bleue seule à sa table
Je me sens fou de l'avoir vue
Comme j'aimerais qu'elle me regarde
Je n'ai jamais vu s'ennuyer
Une femme avec tant de charme
Et si j'allais lui parler
Peut-être qu'elle pourrait m'aimer
À cause d'un regard
Maintenant plus rien ne nous sépare
Je suis amoureux
De la dame en bleu
Toi ma belle, belle inconnue
Tu m'attires et tu me charmes
Tu m'as rendu amoureux
De la dame en bleu
Dis-moi qu'on se reverra
Que ce n'est pas l'histoire d'un soir
Je veux te garder dans mes bras
De peur de ne pas te revoir
Toi ma belle, belle inconnue
Vient danser encore une fois
J'imagine ton corps nu
Qui m'invite à chaque pas
À cause d'un regard
Maintenant plus rien ne nous sépare
Je suis amoureux
De la dame en bleu
Toi ma belle, belle inconnue
Tu m'attires et tu me charmes
Tu m'as rendu amoureux
De la dame en bleu
À cause d'un regard
Maintenant plus rien ne nous sépare
Je suis amoureux
De la dame en bleu
Toi ma belle, belle inconnue
Tu m'attires et tu me charmes
Tu m'as rendu amoureux
De la dame en bleu
