Non, je n'ai rien oublié [English translation]

I would've never thought we'd meet again

Chance is strange, it causes things

And fate that's always in a hurry, a moment takes a pause

No, I haven't forgotten anything.

I smile despite myself, just by looking at you.

If the months, the years often leave their mark on beings,

You, you haven't changed at all, only your hairstyle maybe.

No, I haven't forgotten anything.

Married? Me? Come on, I have no such desire

I love my freedom, and then, between you and me

I haven't met the woman of my life

But let's go for a drink, and let's talk about you.

What have you been up to? Are you rich and content?

You live alone in Paris? And that marriage...

Between us, your parents must've died of fury.

No, I haven't forgotten anything.

Who could've told me that one day, with no interference,

Fate would bring us suddenly face to face?

I thought everything dies along with the time that passes

No, I haven't forgotten anything.

I don't really know what to say, nor where to start

Memories abound, invade my mind

My past is coming back from the bottom of its defeat

No, I haven't forgotten anything.

At the age when I was wearing my heart on my sleeve,

Your father, having different ambitions for you,

Broke our love, made our tears gush out

For a groom chosen by his standards.

I wanted to see you again but you were cloistered

I wrote to you hundreds of times, but always to no reply

It took me long before I gave up

No, I haven't forgotten anything.

Time flies and the cafe is soon closing

Come, I'll walk you through the dead streets

Like in the times of kisses stolen in your doorway

No, I haven't forgotten anything.

Every season was our love season

And we were not afraid of winter, nor of autumn

It's always spring when we reminisce our twenties

No, I haven't forgotten anything.

It was good to feel again your presence

I feel differently, a bit lighter

One often needs a dive into adolescence

It's gentle coming back to the sources of the past

I would want, if you do too, without feeling forced,

To see you again, well, if it's possible.

If you feel like it and you're available

If you haven't forgotten anything

Like me, who hasn't forgotten anything.
