Sous le ciel de Paris - Edith Piaf (karaoke)

Confessions

Under the Paris sky
Flies a melody
Hmmm Hmmm
It was born of today
In the heart of a boy.
Under the Paris sky
Lovers walk
Hmmm Hmmm
Their happiness is built
On a tune made for them.

Under the Bercy Bridge
A philosopher sits,
Two musicians, a few strollers
Then people by the thousands,
Under the Paris sky,
They sing until evening
Hmmm Hmmm
A lovers’ hymn
Of the old city.

Near Notre Dame
Occasional tragedies are played out.
Yes but in Paname*
All can be fixed.
Some rays
Of a summer sun,
The accordion
Of a seaman
Hope flourishes
In the Paris sky

Under the Paris sky
Flows a river of joy.
Hmmm Hmmm
It sleeps in the night.
The tramps and beggers …
Under the Paris sky
God’s creatures
Hmmm Hmmm
Come from around the world
To chat with each other

And the Paris sky
Has its own secret:
For twenty centuries it has been in love
With our Ile Saint Louis;
And when it smiles at the sky,
It puts on its blue robe.
Hmmm Hmmm
When it rains on Paris
It’s because it’s unhappy.
When it’s too jealous
Of the millions of lovers,
Hmmm Hmmm
It growls at us
With resounding thunder.
But the sky of Paris
Is not long cruel
Hmmm Hmmm
And to apologize
It offers a rainbow.
