Je Te Donnerai
Charles Aznavour · Charles Aznavour [2011]
Tout l'amour du monde qui sommeille en moi
Je te donnerai toutes les richesses
Que notre jeunesse garde au fond de soi.
Cela simplement pour avoir encore
Ton âme et ton corps, jusqu'au bout du temps
Notre vie, je sais, fera sa fortune
Des joies qu'une à une, je te donnerai.
Je te donnerai, pour nos nuits en fièvre
Des mots que tes lèvres me diront tout bas
Je te donnerai des instants de gloire
Des cris de victoire quand on s'aimera.
Pour que le bonheur se colle à ma vie
J'aurai du génie pour combler ton coeur
Notre amour parfait'sera magnifique
Car c'est fantastique, ce que je te donnerai.
