Souvenirs, souvenirs [English translation]

Memories, memories

I find you in my heart again

And again you make flower

All my dreams of happiness

I remember a night of dancing

Cheek to cheek

Our holiday meetings

When we played the fool

Memories, memories

Of our beautiful summer days

When we left to gather

A thousand flowers, a thousand kisses

And to better keep in my head

The joys of the beautiful season

Memories, memories

We still have our songs

Memories, memories

Somewhere in the morning

Where the sun seemed to laugh

All along our paths

We had in the bottom of our pockets

Only a little hope

But, we left like Gavroche 1

The heart rather chatty

Memories, memories

You come back into my life

Lighting the future

When my sky is too grey

They say that time carries you away

And yet I am certain

Memories, memories

You will stay my friends
