[Verse 1]
Tu es la
Devant moi
Et tu me regardes
Le coeur en croix
Et...
Je suis la
Immobile
Et je te regarde
Le coeur fragile
Voila...il y a deux jours a peine
Que je t'ai rencontre
Mes reves se dechainent
Et j'ai peur de t'aimer
Je me jette vers toi
Mais je veux m'arreter
Et si je crie de joie
Je ne sais plus parler

[You are there
In front of me
And you're looking at me
With your heart in cross
And...
I am here
Standing still
And I'm looking at you
With my fragile heart
There it is...only two days ago
That I've met you
My dreams get loose
And I'm afraid of loving you
I'm jumping at you
But I want to stop myself
And if I shout out my joy
I no longer know how to talk]

Tu es la
Devant moi
Et tu me caresses
Du bout des doigts
Et...
Tout commence aujourd'hui
Et la vie nous laisse
Devant la vie
Plus rien ne peut nous arreter
L'amour est devant nous
Et pour lui resister
Il faudrait etre fous
J'ai envie de pleurer
Je n'y arrive pas
Oui le monde a change
Depuis que tu es la

[You are there
In front of me
And you're caressing me
With your fingertips
And...
Everything begins today
And life leaves us
Facing the life
Nothing can stop us now
Love is in front of us
And to resist to it
We should be crazy
I want to cry
I can't do it
Yes the world has changed
Since you are there]

[Outro]
Tu es la
Tu es la
Et j'ai le coeur qui bat

[You are there
You are there
And my heart beats]
