If I Were A Carpenter
Si j'étais un charpentier
If
I
were
a
carpenter
and
you
were
a
lady
Si
j'étais
un
charpentier
et
que
tu
sois
une
dame
Would
you
marry
me
anyway,
would
you
have
my
baby?
M'épouserais-tu
quand
même,
aurais-tu
mon
bébé ?
If
a
tinker
were
my
trade,
would
you
still
find
me
Si
mon
métier
était
de
raccommoder,
me
trouverais-tu
encore
Carrying
the
pots
I
made
following
behind
me?
Portant
les
pots
que
j'ai
faits,
me
suivant ?
Save
my
love
through
loneliness,
save
my
love
through
sorrow.
Sauve
mon
amour
de
la
solitude,
sauve
mon
amour
du
chagrin.
I′ve
given
you
my
onliness,
give
me
your
tomorrow.
Je
t'ai
donné
mon
unique
amour,
donne-moi
ton
demain.
If
I
worked
my
hands
in
wood,
would
you
still
love
me?
Si
je
travaillais
le
bois
de
mes
mains,
m'aimerais-tu
toujours ?
Answer
me,
baby,
yes,
I
would,
I'd
put
you
above
me.
Réponds-moi,
chérie,
oui,
je
le
ferais,
je
te
placerais
au-dessus
de
moi.
If
I
were
a
miller,
at
a
mill
wheel
grinding
Si
j'étais
un
meunier,
à
la
meule
qui
tourne
Would
you
miss
your
coloured
box
and
those
soft
shoes
shining?
Manquerait-il
à
ton
cœur
la
boîte
colorée
et
ces
souliers
doux
qui
brillent ?
Save
my
love
through
loneliness,
save
my
love
through
sorrow.
Sauve
mon
amour
de
la
solitude,
sauve
mon
amour
du
chagrin.

given
you

your
tomorrow.

t'ai
