Kolé séré nou téké ka dansé
Si nou té pren tan pou nou ekspliké

Kolé séré kolé séré

Tightly Hugged

I would not have imagined
That I would see you again,
So many years have passed.
I see that you have not changed.

I, I did not expect,
I would run into you again.
I had even forgotten,
What I could reproach you for.
In just a glance, my eyes popped.

I could not resist,
But the love was sweet.
We were not playing.
If only we had taken the time to talk.

Tightly hugged, we would be dancing.
If only we had taken the time to chat,
Tightly hugged, we would be dancing.
If only we had taken the time to explain,
Tightly hugged, tightly hugged.
Tightly hugged, tightly hugged.

I would not have imagined,
That I would see you again.
And to forget you,
I had ruined everything, broken everything.

All that I said, I said poorly.
I did not know how to negotiate with you.
Look at me today,
I cannot find anything to say.

You are right here next to me, smiling.
It gives me the desire.
Take me back in your arms,
So that we can start over.

If only we had taken the time to talk.
Tightly hugged, we would be dancing.
If only we had taken the time to chat,
Tightly hugged, we would be dancing.
If only we had taken the time to explain,
Tightly hugged, tightly hugged.
Tightly hugged, tightly hugged.

Tightly hugged, we would be dancing.
If only we had taken the time to chat,
Tightly hugged, we would be dancing.
If only we had taken the time to explain,
Tightly hugged, tightly hugged.
Tightly hugged, tightly hugged.
