    Default Paris, le forte

    I am looking for the French lyrics of this song that I heard online I think it is called "Paris, le forte" by Ettienne Daho. It has played in my head in a loop. I love the song and once I get the french words I can translate. Thank you a head of time for any help.

    I found this song - hopefully it's the one you want:

    Paris le Flore
    Etienne Daho


    Après-midi, Paris c'est fun, en terrasse, attablé
    Regards lourds de sens et connivence pour qui cherche une main
    Je n'attends vraiment rien, je viens pour y lire des bouquins
    Artaud, Miller puis faut qu'j'aille
    Trainer sans raison
    De pleurs en frimes, Paris déprime, Saint-Germain s'illumine
    Se fondre à la foule, dans la ville aux rencontres faciles
    Je n'fais guère attention, les dessins qu'j'ai dans ces cartons
    Sont mon unique passion
    L'art est ma raison
    Chorus
    Si jamais d'aventure, je recherche l'aventure
    Café Paris, Le Flore, où tu me dis "je t'adore"
    Après minuit, Paris c'est fun, attablé, détaché
    Regards lourds de sens et connivence pour qui cherche une main
    Je n'attends vraiment rien, je viens pour y lire des bouquins
    Artaud, Miller puis faut qu'j'aille
    Trainer sans raison.

    Sorry Nat, something went wrong with that link.
    [fixed now]

    Here's the Stevie Wonder lyrics:

    When was the last time
    That they heard you say
    Mother or father, I love you
    And when was the last time
    That they heard you say
    Daughter or son, I love you

    Ones you say you cherish everyday
    Can instantly be taken away
    Then youd say I know this cant be true
    When you never took the time
    To simply tell them I love you

    When was the last time
    That they heard you say
    Sister or brother, I love you
    And when was the last time
    That they heard you say
    Darling or best friend, I love you

    The one for whom youd give your very life
    Could be taken in the twinkling of an eye
    Through your tears youd ask why did you go
    Knowing youd didnt always show
    Just how much you loved them so

    These three words
    Sweet and simple
    These three words
    Short and kind
    These three words
    Always kindles
    An aching heart to smile inside

    I know a family
    Who hasnt a cent to their name
    And yet the joy and love they have between them
    They always claim
    And when ones called from life
    The survived mourn the lost
    And will never be the same
    Yet they rejoice
    In knowing they gave them their all

    These three words
    Sweet and simple
    These three words
    Short and kind
    These three words
    Always kindles

    (repeat and fade)


    I can't find a song called "These Three Words" by Jamie Cullum.
    Here's a site with many of the songs he has recorded and their lyrics:

    ps. You're English is fine - I understand you ok.

    Only reference to Jamie Cullum singing this song I found on Jazz Festival page: NORTH SEA JAZZ FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS 2007 (2 DVDs)

    Terrence Blanchard & Metropole Orchestra feat. Jamie Cullum -
    These Three Words

    But i never heard this myself either.

    Anyways, it's a beautiful song, and good luck with your gig, Nat

    Thanks a lot Fab, i'm really happy. Now i must work for learn it !!!! But i adore singing and it's my job too !!!!!!!! i seen the Stevie Wonder's vidéo....Wouaw, he's a really great vocalist !!!! I sing few songs of him like : "part time lover" and "free" and "i wish". It's not easy to singing but it's really interesting for the vocal technic (maybe it's a french expression ???!!!).
    Lollipop i'm very happy you love Jamie !!!! I'm really fan too !!! I meet him after one of his gig in San Sebastiaan in spain. But it was too short and i can't had a conversation with him, just a kiss, a photograph and an autograph.....
    i will want meet him again in another context, but it's not easy, i'm in France et he is in england !!!! My dream is a musical bandys (i'm not sure for this word !!!) with him, or backing vocal on his song.. But it's a dream............
    I'm happy to meet you and you also Fab by this website, thanks
    Kiss Nat
