Chance
Sylvie Vartan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Chance, je crois bien qu'il me reste une chance
Et je voudrais pour une fois la garder
Ne pas gвcher cet amour inespйrй
Chance, pour une fois que j'ai de la chance
J'avais bien peur de ne plus croire au bonheur
Mais il faut croire а l'amour du fond du cњur, yeah

Il y avait par le monde un inconnu et en deux secondes
J'ai su qu'avec lui je tenais ma chance

Depuis longtemps j'attendais ma chance
Elle est venue quand je croyais tout perdu
Je veux garder cet amour inattendu

Il y avait par le monde un inconnu
Et ma folle ronde est finie car j'ai trouvй ma chance

Je crois bien qu'il me reste une chance
Et je voudrais pour une fois la garder




Ne pas gвcher cet amour inespйrй, yeah
Chance, j'ai ma chance, ma vraie chance, oui ma chance.
