Vous étiez belle, Madame [English translation]

You were beautiful, Madame,

When I saw you that day,

You were beautiful, Madame,

When you walked on his arm,

You were so well dressed,

You were so well made up*,

That I could not resist myself

From envying you

You were beautiful, Madame,

And he looked so pleased with you,

You were beautiful, Madame,

And I thought, I'll admit to you

That I could never again

Go back to the man that I loved

Because everyday life,

It kills love

~ ~ ~

You were beautiful, Madame,

When I saw you that day,

You were beautiful, Madame,

But deep down I don't blame you

Since he's handsome and he pleases you,

Enjoy it if you want,

Me, I know for sure that you aren’t going

To keep him

They were beautiful, Madame,

The women that knew him before you,

As beautiful as you are, Madame,

But believe me, thats not all

Me, I shared with him

So many joys and worries,

Maybe you'll understand one day,

That that's love

~ ~ ~

You were beautiful, Madame,

But when he gets bored one day

Of this story, Madame,

So this time, as always,

He'll come back and I will

Pretend to believe in his regrets,

Life will continue for us

And thats all...
