Lyrics and translation Art Tatum - It's Only a Paper Moon (Live Version)




It's Only a Paper Moon (Live Version)
Ce n'est qu'une lune de papier (Version Live)
Say, it's only a paper moon
Dis, ce n'est qu'une lune de papier
Sailing over a cardboard sea
Navigant sur une mer de carton
But it wouldn't be make-believe
Mais ce ne serait pas un conte de fées
If you believed in me
Si tu croyais en moi
Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Oui, ce n'est qu'un ciel de toile
Hanging over a muslin tree
Suspendu au-dessus d'un arbre de mousseline
But it wouldn't be make-believe
Mais ce ne serait pas un conte de fées
If you believed in me
Si tu croyais en moi
Without your love
Sans ton amour
It's a honky tonk parade
C'est un défilé honky-tonk
Without your love
Sans ton amour
It's a melody played in a penny arcade
C'est une mélodie jouée dans une salle d'arcade
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
C'est un monde Barnum et Bailey
Just as phony as it can be
Tout aussi faux qu'il puisse être
But it wouldn't be make-believe
Mais ce ne serait pas un conte de fées
If you believed in me
Si tu croyais en moi
Say, it's only a paper moon
Dis, ce n'est qu'une lune de papier
Sailing over a cardboard sea
Navigant sur une mer de carton
But it wouldn't be make-believe
Mais ce ne serait pas un conte de fées
If you believed in me
Si tu croyais en moi
Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Oui, ce n'est qu'un ciel de toile
Hanging over a muslin tree
Suspendu au-dessus d'un arbre de mousseline
But it wouldn't be make-believe
Mais ce ne serait pas un conte de fées
If you believed in me
Si tu croyais en moi
Without your love
Sans ton amour
It's a honky-tonk parade
C'est un défilé honky-tonk
Without your love
Sans ton amour
It's a melody played in a penny arcade
C'est une mélodie jouée dans une salle d'arcade
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
C'est un monde Barnum et Bailey
Just as phony as it can be
Tout aussi faux qu'il puisse être
But it wouldn't be make-believe
Mais ce ne serait pas un conte de fées
If you believed in me
Si tu croyais en moi
It's phony it's plain to see
C'est faux, c'est évident
How happy I would be
Comme je serais heureux
If you believed in me
Si tu croyais en moi
