Mildred Bailey - A Cigarette and a Silhouette - translation of the lyrics into French




A Cigarette and a Silhouette
Une cigarette et une silhouette
A cigarette and a silhouette
Une cigarette et une silhouette
create a mood that is blue
Créent une ambiance bleue
for the cigarette helps me grIn
Car la cigarette m'aide à sourire
and the silhouette looks like you
Et la silhouette te ressemble
and easy chair where I rest my hair
Et un fauteuil je repose mes cheveux
a single light burning low
Une seule lumière qui brûle faiblement
where the smoke takes the shape of cloud
la fumée prend la forme d'un nuage
and the light is the moon of glow
Et la lumière est la lueur de la lune
all through this dreamy heaven
Dans tout ce rêve céleste
I go back two days gone by
Je retourne deux jours en arrière
when the moon was real
Quand la lune était réelle
and you were real
Et tu étais réel
and my hopes were in the sky
Et mes espoirs étaient dans le ciel
if this memory only clings to me
Si ce souvenir ne me quitte pas
I wont regret being blue
Je ne regretterai pas d'être bleue
for i can forget with a cigarette and a silhouette of you
Car je peux oublier avec une cigarette et une silhouette de toi
