I’ll only let you down again
Like I did before
Treat you like a clown again
You don’t need this no more
You should know by now
Just what I am
You’ve heard it all before, the last time
I’ll only make you cry again
Like I did before
I’ll only tell you lies again
You shouldn’t take it no more
You should know by now
Just who I am

You’ve seen it all before, the last time

I’ll only make you smile again
Like I did before
Make it all worthwhile again
Then maybe more
You should know by now
Just what I am

I promised you before, the last time

You fall in love with me again
Like you did before
But when I’m not who you want me to be again
You won’t love me no more

If you don’t know by now, just who I am
You’ve heard it all before, you’ve seen it all before, we’ve done all this before, the last time

And I don’t think we should go through all this again

Tout était beau, tout était bleu, du ciel jusqu'à ses yeux
Tout s'est passé en un instant, comme un jeu d'enfant

Je n'avais rien connu de mieux, mon amoureux
Cœurs légers, baisers hors du temps, mon bel amant

Rêve éveillé, cheveux au vent
Et se cacher comme un jeu d'enfant

Sans un mot, nous faisions tous deux l'amour en feu
Non, plus rien n'était important, aussi brûlant

La fin de l'été c'est déchirant
Pour tout oublier comme un jeu d'enfant

Son regard glissa peu à peu comme un adieu
Les garçons ne sont pas sérieux à 17 ans
Comme un jeu d'enfant...
English translation :
LIKE A CHILDREN’S GAME

Everything was beautiful, everything was blue, from heaven to his eyes

Everything happened in a moment like a children’s game

I’d never known anything better, my love

Light hearts, timeless kisses, my beautiful lover

Dreams wide awake, hair blowing in the wind

And hiding like a children’s game

Without a word, we made love, we were on fire

No, nothing was as important anymore,

The end of summer is heartbreaking

Forgetting everything, like a children’s game

His gaze slipped slowly away like a goodbye

Boys of 17 are not serious

Like a children’s game …
