She had rings on every finger
Loads of bracelets around her wrists
And then she sang with a voice
That, immediately, charmed me

She had eyes, opal eyes
That fascinated me, that fascinated me
There was the oval of her pale face
Of a femme fatale that was fatal to me
Of a femme fatale that was fatal to me

We met, we recognized each other
We lost sight of each other, we lost sight of each other again
We found each other, we warmed up
Then we separated

Each one for himself went back
Into the whirlwind of life
I saw her again one night, oh, oh, oh
It's been quite a while
It's been quite a while

To the sound of banjos I recognized her
That curious smile that I liked so much
Her voice so fatal, her beautiful pale face
Moved me more than ever

I got drunk listening to her
Alcohol makes you forget time
I woke up feeling
Kisses on my burning forehead
Kisses on my burning forehead

We met, we recognized each other
We lost sight of each other, we lost sight of each other again
We found each other, we separated
Then we warmed up

Each one for himself went back
Into the whirlwind of life
I saw her again one night, oh dear
She fell back into my arms
She fell back into my arms

When we met, when we recognized each other
Why lose sight of each other, lose sight of each other again?
When we found each other, when we warmed up
Why separate?

So both of us went back
Into the whirlwind of life
We continued to spin
Both of us entwined
Both of us entwined

Both of us entwined
