We were supposed to go to the cinema
forgive me, I won't go today
In the darkness, I will sit at the piano
My thought will run to the past
A little cinema
Do you remember the little, silent cinema?
Rudolf Valentino on the screen
In a quiet loge you and me
On the screen
He loves her and dies for her
We believe 'cause we are in love
For us it's true, it's not acting
It's as if the movie was about us
So we stare
Ah, we're so touched by our love
At a little cinema
Nobody plays the piano anymore
There are no shows at the little cinema
At the little silent cinema P'tit trianon
Nothing reminds us
Of the old distant moments
Like the music from silent cinema
Melancholic like an old movie
A little cinema
Do you remember the little, silent cinema?
Rudolf Valentino on the screen
In a quiet loge you and me
On the screen
He loves her and dies for her
We believe 'cause we are in love
For us it's true, it's not acting
It's as if the movie was about us
So we stare
Ah, we're so touched by our love
At a little cinema
Nobody plays the piano anymore
There are no shows at the little cinema
At the little silent cinema P'tit trianon
