Et je cours, je cours, je cours , I've lost l'amour, l'amour, l'amour
Je suis perdu, here without you, and I'm crazy, seul à Paris
Je tu le manque, sans toi I can't, et sous la pluie, I feel sorry
Champs Elysées, alone, la nuit, le Moulin Rouge, I feel guilty
Et le soleil est plus brûlant que les oiseaux,
Et dans le ciel, I miss you so
A souvenir, a rendez-vous,
Des fleurs des fleurs des fleurs for you
Je tu le manque, sans toi I can't,
Et sous la pluie, I feel sorry
Je suis perdu here without you, and I'm crazy, seul à Paris
I remember jolie demoiselle, the last summer, comme tu étais belle
I remember, nous, la tour Eiffel , so beautiful with your sac Chanel
L'amour à la française, c'est que je t'aime, je t'aime, je t'aime, je t'aime
I give you a rendez-vous
Et je cours, je cours, je cours, I've lost l'amour, l'amour, l'amour
Je suis perdu, here without you and I'm crazy, seul à Paris
Je tu le manque, sans toi I can't et sous la pluie, I feel sorry
Champs Elysées, alone, la nuit, le Moulin Rouge, I feel guilty
Et le soleil est plus brûlant que les oiseaux
Et dans le ciel, I miss you so
A souvenir, a rendez-vous,
Des fleurs des fleurs des fleurs for you
Je tu le manque, sans toi I can't
Et sous la pluie, I feel sorry
Je suis perdu here without you...
Why should you smile you are asking ?
It takes 26 muscles to smile, and 62 muscles to frown.
Life is short but a smile takes barely a second.
Better by far that you should forget and smile than that you should remember and be sad.
A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.
If you're not using your smile, you're like a man with a million dollars in the bank and no checkbook.
Your smile makes the people you don't like angry so smile even in the bad times.
Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift, a beautiful thing.
-Smile, even if it's a sad smile, because sadder than a sad smile is the sadness of not knowing how to smile.
Because of your smile, you make life more beautiful.
If someone don't give you a smile, leave one of your own, because no one needs a smile as much as those who have none to give.
Smiling makes you feel better about yourself, eve if you don't feel like it. And it always makes other people think better of you.
There are hundreds of languages in this world, but a smile speaks them all.
°° You are not responsible for the face you have
but you're responsible for the face you make
so smile it can only be better °°
