Les Champs-Élysées [English translation]

I was walking on the avenue

My heart open to the unknown

I wanted to say hello

to anybody

Anybody was you

and I said anything to you.

Speaking to you was enough

to soften you.

On the Champs-Elysees

On the Champs-Elysees

In the sun, in the rain

At midday or at midnight

There's everything you want

On the Champs-Elysees

You told me, "I have a date

In a basement with some mad guys

Who play guitar

From dusk til dawn"

So I went with you

We sang, we dansed

And we didn't even think

of kissing.

On the Champs-Elysees

On the Champs-Elysees

In the sun, in the rain

At midday or at midnight

There's everything you want

On the Champs-Elysees

Last night, two strangers

And this morning on the avenue

Two lovers, dazed

by the long night

And from l'Etoile to the Concorde

An orchestra of a thousand chords

All the morning birds

sing of love

On the Champs-Elysees

On the Champs-Elysees

In the sun, in the rain

At midday or at midnight

There's everything you want

On the Champs-Elysees

On the Champs-Elysees

On the Champs-Elysees

In the sun, in the rain

At midday or at midnight

There's everything you want

On the Champs-Elysees
