I was strolling down the avenue, heart wide open to the unknown
I felt like saying hello to anybody
Anybody, and it was you, I told you just anything
All it took was talking to you to win you over
In the sun, in the rain, at noon or at midnight
There's everything you want on the Champs-Elysées
You told me "I've got a date in a basement with some crazies
Who live with a guitar in hand, from evening till morning"
So I went with you, we sang, we danced
And we didn't even think about kissing
In the sun, in the rain, at noon or at midnight
There's everything you want on the Champs-Elysées
Last night two strangers and this morning on the avenue
Two lovers all dizzy from the long night
And from the Étoile to the Concorde, an orchestra with a thousand strings
All the birds at break of day sing love
In the sun, in the rain, at noon or at midnight
There's everything you want on the Champs-Elysées
In the sun, in the rain, at noon or at midnight
There's everything you want on the Champs-Elysées
In the sun, in the rain, at noon or at midnight
There's everything you want on the Champs-Elysées
In the sun, in the rain, or at midnight
There's everything you want on the Champs-Elysées
