Lyrics and translation George Benson - That Sunday, That Summer

That Sunday, That Summer

(If I had to choose just one day)

If I had to choose just one day
To last my whole life through
It would surely be that Sunday
The day that I met you

Newborn whippoorwills were calling from the hills
Summer was a-coming in but fast
Lots of daffodils were showing off their skills
Nodding all together, I could almost hear them whisper
"Go on, kiss her, go on and kiss her"

If I had to choose one moment
To live within my heart
It would be that tender moment
Recalling how we started
Darling, it would be when you smiled at me
That way, that Sunday, that summer

(Newborn whippoorwills were calling from the hills)
(Summer was a-comin' in but fast)
(Lots of daffodils were showin' off their skills)
(Nodding all together, I could almost hear them whisper)
("Go on, kiss her, go on and kiss her")

If I had to choose one moment
To live within my heart
It would be that tender moment
Recalling how we started
Darling, it would be when you smiled at me
That way, that Sunday, that summer

(If I had to choose just one day)

Ce dimanche, cet été

(Si je devais choisir un seul jour)

Si je devais choisir un seul jour
Pour durer toute ma vie
Ce serait sûrement ce dimanche
Le jour où je t'ai rencontrée

Les jeunes engoulevents appelaient des collines
L'été arrivait vite
Beaucoup de jonquilles se montraient
Hochant la tête ensemble, j'ai presque entendu leur murmure
"Vas-y, embrasse-la, vas-y et embrasse-la"

Si je devais choisir un moment
Pour vivre dans mon cœur
Ce serait ce moment tendre
Se rappelant comment nous avons commencé
Chérie, ce serait quand tu as souri à moi
De cette façon, ce dimanche, cet été

(Les jeunes engoulevents appelaient des collines)
(L'été arrivait vite)
(Beaucoup de jonquilles se montraient)
(Hochant la tête ensemble, j'ai presque entendu leur murmure)
("Vas-y, embrasse-la, vas-y et embrasse-la")

Si je devais choisir un moment
Pour vivre dans mon cœur
Ce serait ce moment tendre
Se rappelant comment nous avons commencé
Chérie, ce serait quand tu as souri à moi
De cette façon, ce dimanche, cet été

(Si je devais choisir un seul jour)
