Anglais: I was walking down the avenue and my heart wanted something unknown(new) I felt like saying good day to anybody To anybody and that was you, and I said something (anything) It was enough to me to talk to you to make you mine At Champs Élysées, at Champs Élysées If it's raining or if sun is shining, if it's noon or midnight You have anything you want at Champs Élysées You told me "I have a meeting in the basement with the fools who live with guitars in their hands from evening till morning" So I joined you, we sang and we danced But we never even thought of kissing or hugging. At Champs Élysées, at Champs Élysées If it's raining or if sun is shining, if it's noon or midnight You have anything you want at Champs Élysées...!
