Lyrics Les amants d'un jour (Live) - Edith Piaf

Me, I wipe glasses
At the back of the bar.
I've too much to do
To be able to dream
And in this place,
So cheap as to make you cry,
It seems to me that I can still
See them come in ...
They came in,
Hand-in-hand
Filled with the wonder
Of two cherubs
Full of sunlight.
They asked
In a calm voice
For a lovers' room
In the heart of the City.
And I still recall
That they looked,
Tenderly
At the run-down room
With its yellowed wallpaper.
And when I closed
The door on them,
They were so full of sunshine
Deep in their eyes
That it made me feel sad,
That it made me feel sad ...
Me, I wipe glasses
At the back of the bar.
I've too much to do
To be able to dream
And in this place,
So cheap as to make you cry,
It was side-by-side
That they found their bodies ...
They were found
Hand-in-hand
Their eyes closed
To future mornings
Full of sunshine.
They were laid
United and peaceful
On a sagging bed
In the heart of the City.
And I still recall
Having closed
In the early morning
The hotel room
Of the lovers for a day.
But they have driven
Deep in my heart
A bit of their sunshine
With so much color
That it hurts me so,
It hurts me so ...
Me, I wipe glasses
At the back of the bar.
I've too much to do
To be able to dream
And in this place,
So cheap as to make you cry,
Outside there is still a sign
Room for Rent ...
