Des yeux qui font baisser les miens Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche Voilà le portrait sans retouche De l'homme auquel j'appartiens Quand il me prend dans ses bras Il me parle tout bas Je vois la vie en rose Il me dit des mots d'amour Des mots de tous le jours Et ça me fait quelque chose Il est entré dans mon coeur Une part de bonheur Dont je connais la cause C'est lui pour moi Moi pour lui Dans la vie Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie Et dès que je l'aperçois Alors je sens en moi, mon coeur qui bat When he takes me in his arms And whispers love to me Everything's lovely It's him for me and me for him All our lives And it's so real what I feel This is why Et dès que je l'aperçois Alors je sens en moi, mon coeur qui bat La vie La vie en rose, la vie en rose Ohh, la vie La vie en rose La vie en rose, la vie en rose La vie en rose, la vie en rose La vie en rose, la vie en rose La vie en rose, la vie en rose Je t'aime voir toujours
