Le premier pas [English translation]

Make the first move...

I'd like her to make the first move.

I know it is not the done thing,

However, I'd like so much to see her come to me,

For, I don't dare to, you see...

Look for the right manner

of seeing , approaching,

talking to, pleasing her,

not being too pushy,

to tell her words of love

not knowing beforehand

whether she will enjoy or refuse

O, this first move....

Make the first move...

I'd like her to make the first move.

We can wait for each other this way,

staring at each other for ages, for so long,

and live our life each one alone..

I will meet her, let's say,

at the foot of the stairs,

Then, just like every day,

'' How are you ?'' she wiil say,

but this time, only time,

O, she will take my arm,

and she will lead me to her home..

where we shall take..

the first step towards love,

in her bed, day after day,

To me, she'll reveal her body,

letting me have all the remorse

for not having said earlier,

O, the first word...

Yes, the first word..

I'd like her to say the first word.

At night, I dream of it, silly !...

If she only,

wanted to whisper furtively,

In that case, I think that I would

do the first move....
