Les Amoureux Des Bancs Publics : traduction de Français vers Anglais
People who see things wrongly think that the green benches
That we see on the sidewalks
Are made for the disabled or the potbellied
But it's absurd because in truth, they are there, it's well known
To welcome for a while the budding lovers
Lovers who smooch on public benches
Public benches, public benches
Not caring at all about the oblique gaze of honest passersby
Lovers who smooch on public benches
Public benches, public benches
Telling each other pathetic "I love you's"
Have quite likable little faces
They hold hands, talk about tomorrow, about the azure blue paper
That will cover the walls of their bedroom
They already see themselves gently, her sewing, him smoking in a sure well-being
And choose the names of their first baby
Lovers who smooch on public benches
Public benches, public benches
Not caring at all about the oblique gaze of honest passersby
Lovers who smooch on public benches
Public benches, public benches
Telling each other pathetic "I love you's"
Have quite likable little faces
When the holy family machine crosses on its path two of these rude ones
It boldly shoots venomous words at them
Nevertheless, the whole family
The father, the mother, the daughter, the son, the Holy Spirit
Would like from time to time to be able to behave like them
Lovers who smooch on public benches
Public benches, public benches
Not caring at all about the oblique gaze of honest passersby
Lovers who smooch on public benches
Public benches, public benches
Telling each other pathetic "I love you's"
Have quite likable little faces
When the months have passed, when their beautiful flaming dreams will be calmed
When their sky will be covered with heavy clouds
They will realize, moved, that it's by chance on the streets, on one of these famous benches
That they lived the best part of their love
Lovers who smooch on public benches
Public benches, public benches
Not caring at all about the oblique gaze of honest passersby
Lovers who smooch on public benches
Public benches, public benches
Telling each other pathetic "I love you's"
Have quite likable little faces
