Bye-bye, mon amour [English translation]

Bye-bye, my love

forever

since rumor has it that we must break up.

Bye-bye for life.

The book is closed.

It ended before it began.

What good is it to want to hide from ourselves

that we did not find

what love ought to bring us?

We did our best

and far from the heart and far from the eyes,

let's remain friends and bid adieu.

Adieu, bye-bye, my love

forever

since rumor has it that we must break up.

Bye-bye for life.

The book is closed.

It ended before it began.

~~~~~

Too bad for me, too bad for us.

We were fooling ourselves, that's all

and we will never share the same roof.

We retain a beautiful memory

and since it had to end this way,

let's remain friends and bid adieu.

Adieu, bye-bye, my love

forever

since rumor has it that we must break up.

Bye-bye for life.

The book is closed.

It ended before it began—

it ended before it began—

it ended before it began.
