Je n'ai qu'un souvenir
Qui ne soit rien qu'à moi,
Je revois son sourire
Mais ca ne suffit pas.
Il y a des gens heureux
Qui vivent autour de moi,
Ce sont les amoureux
Mais ils ne savent pas.
Les amoureux qui passent
Ne se retournent pas,
Mais il reste la trace,
Dans mon coeur de leurs pas.
On est aimé souvent,
Mais on n'aime qu'une fois
J'aurais voulu longtemps
Mais elle ne voulait pas.
Quand je vois ceux qui s'aiment
Passer tout près de moi,
Ils me font de la peine,
Car ils ne savent pas.
Il me reste un espoir
C'est celui d'oublier
Mais j'y pense chaque fois
Que je les vois passer.
English lyrics: Trần Hữu Nhơn
The love's gone away.
Nothing in memory,
That means something really
Her smile I still see
But not enough for me.
There are many people
So happy around me,
They're in love, I can see
But they don't know what could be.
The love's gone away,
Won't return someday,
Just a trace being part
Of the past in my heart.
We were loved so often,
Only once didn't happen,
I'd wanted for so long
But she didn't want to belong.
When I saw those in love
Passing by me too close,
The pains in me arose,
'Cause they didn't really know.
Just one hope I have left
That it is to forget
But it's back in my head
With the lovers I've met.
