En ce temps-là,
nous vivions ensemble.En ce temps-là l'amour nous aimait.Heureux destin quand la vie rassembleCeux qui se ressemblentEt qui se cherchaient.En ce temps-là,
c'étaient des voyages.En ce temps-là,
nous changions toujoursNos horizons,
campagnes et villages,Grandes villes ou plages,Sans changer d'amour.A présent tout seul,
je voyage aussi.Je revois campagnes et villagesEt parfois,
devant mon piano,
assis,Je fredonne cet air du bel âge.En ce temps-là,
ce furent des problèmesVite résolus,
sans trop de soucis.Nul ne peut rien contre ceux qui s'aimentEt qui trouvent quand mêmeLes méchants gentils.En ce temps-là,
mais quand donc était-ce ?Oh,
pas très loin.Qu'importe,
à vrai dire,Car désormais,
ces beaux jours sincèresVivront leur jeunesseDans mon souvenirEt mon cœur,
toujours,
tendrement dira :"Qu'il fut,
doux,
chérie,
ce temps-là."
