Lyrics and translation Fred Astaire - How Could You Believe Me When I Said I Love You When You Know I've Been A Liar All My Life - from 'Royal Wedding', 1951
How
could
you
believe
me
when
I
said
I
love
you
Comment
as-tu
pu
me
croire
quand
je
t'ai
dit
que
je
t'aimais
When
you
know
I've
been
a
liar
all
my
life
Alors
que
tu
sais
que
j'ai
été
un
menteur
toute
ma
vie
I've
had
that
reputation
since
I
was
a
youth
J'ai
cette
réputation
depuis
mon
enfance
You
must
have
been
insane
to
think
I'd
tell
you
the
truth
Tu
as
dû
être
folle
pour
penser
que
je
te
dirais
la
vérité

could
you
believe
me
when
I
said
we'd
marry
Comment
as-tu
pu
me
croire
quand
je
t'ai
dit
que
nous
allions
nous
marier
When
you
know
I'd
rather
hang
than
have
a
wife
Alors
que
tu
sais
que
je
préférerais
mourir
plutôt
que
d'avoir
une
femme
I
know
I
said
I'd
make
you
mine
Je
sais
que
j'ai
dit
que
je
te
ferai
mienne
But
who
would
know
that
you
would
go
for
that
old
line
Mais
qui
aurait
cru
que
tu
mordrais
à
cette
vieille
histoire
How
could
you
believe

I
love
you

que
je
t'aimais

tout,
une
belle
bague
en

A
bungalow
by
the

de

some
business
you
had
to
complete
(Fille)
Tu
as
dit
que
tu
avais
des
affaires
à
régler

(Boy)
I

To

(Fille)
Penser
que
tu
as
juré
que
notre
amour
était
réel
(Boy)
But,

that
I'm
a
heel
(Garçon)
Mais,
