Lyrics and translation Frank Sinatra - If I Only Had a Match
If
I
only
had
a
match,
then
my
cares
I'd
soon
forget.
Si
j'avais
seulement
une
allumette,
alors
j'oublierais
vite
mes
soucis.
All
I
need
would
be
a
match
if
I
had
a
cigarette.
Tout
ce
dont
j'ai
besoin,
c'est
une
allumette,
si
j'avais
une
cigarette.
If
I
had
a
cigarette,
I
could
watch
the
smoke
rings
curl.
Si
j'avais
une
cigarette,
je
pourrais
regarder
les
anneaux
de
fumée
tourbillonner.
But
I'd
really
be
all
set,
if
I
only
had
a
girl.
Mais
je
serais
vraiment
prêt,
si
j'avais
seulement
une
fille.
If
I
had
someone
like
you,
to
hurry
to
each
night,
Si
j'avais
quelqu'un
comme
toi,
pour
me
précipiter
chaque
soir,
In
a
cozy
bungalow,
we'd
know
such
sweet
delight.
Dans
un
bungalow
confortable,
nous
connaîtrions
un
tel
bonheur.
We
could
raise
a
family,
and
a
little
garden
patch,
Nous
pourrions
fonder
une
famille,
et
un
petit
jardin,
And
to
think
this
all
could
be,
if
I
only
had
a
match.
Et
penser
que
tout
cela
pourrait
être,
si
j'avais
seulement
une
allumette.
