[Intro]
Il me plaît d'être avec toi
Je ne sais pas où
Où le temps s'est enfui
Oh je t'aime mon chéri

[Chorus]
Funny how time flies when you're having fun
Ooh, baby
Funny how time flies when you're having fun (Fun)
Oh, baby

[Verse 1]
I don't know where it all went
Time passed us by
Just when it seemed the fun began
Ooh

[Chorus]
Funny how time flies when you're having fun, please stay
Funny how time flies (Please stay) when you're having fun, mmm

[Verse 2]
But time never ends
Let's find the time
To get together once again, someday soon

[Chorus]
Funny how time flies when you're having fun, mmm, yeah, ooh
Funny how time flies when you're having fun (Fun)

[Bridge]
Don't you ever leave (Funny how time flies when you're having fun)
Don't you ever go
Say you love me so (Funny how time flies when you're having fun)
Mmm

[Chorus]
Funny how time flies when you're having fun (When you're having fun, yeah)
Funny how time flies when you're having fun

[Outro]
Je ne sais pas où le temps s'est enfui
Il me plaît d'être avec toi
I really don't know where all the time went
I really have to go
Stop, stop
Oh, I really have to go
Oh, I really have to go
One more time?
Oh je t'aime mon chéri
Oh, oh, oh
Š'il vous plaît
Š'il vous plaît

Janet Damita Jo Jackson is an iconic R&B/pop artist who has sold over 100 million records worldwide and has amassed a number of awards in her illustrious music career.

Born in Gary, Indiana on May 16, 1966, Janet is the youngest of the Jackson family, who rose to prominence a few years after her birth when they signed with Motown Records. Janet joined the family business when she appeared on The Jacksons variety show in 1976, leading to her role as Penny Gordon in Season 5 of the CBS sitcom Good Times. She released two overlooked albums in the early 1980s—Janet Jackson (1982) and Dream Street (1984)—and continued to act during this time, appearing in Diff'rent Strokes and Fame.

The legend of Janet was created after she connected with the legendary Minneapolis production duo Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis to work on her seminal third album, Control. Control and her following album, 1989’s Rhythm Nation 1814, featured several #1 pop hits and made her a worldwide superstar. The trio would go on work on Janet’s subsequent hit albums, including janet., The Velvet Rope, as well as her 2015 comeback album, Unbreakable.
