C'est toujours la même histoire [English translation]

I've known well the guy who came across the girl

I've known well the girl smiling to the guy

La la la...

He asked her for thread and needles

To stitch a heart up on his wool coat

La la la...

And she gave it all, the thread and needles

And then her girl's heart on top of that

{Chorus:}

It's always the same story

I barely dare tell you about it

I pretended to believe it

Pretend to listen to me

Now then, I saw the girl making Sundays up

To dance love in her lover's arms

La la la...

Si love was pure, if life was fair

They could've loved each other until the end of times

La la la...

He first lied without her wanting to understand

But she wanted to hang herself on the day he left

{Chorus}

I've known well the guy who left the girl

I've known well the girl who was crying for the guy

Ah ah ah...

She cried for a long time and, one thing leading to another,

Her tears were growing old but weren't healing

Ah ah ah...

Her heart had caught cold

It's more serious than it sounds

I know something about it

The girl, it's me
