Edith Piaf

Just finished listening to Edith Piaf's "La Vie En Rose". I have heard this song since I was a kid but I never knew it's title as well as it's meaning... The song and it's meaning really touches the hearts of those in love...

Here's a translation of the song:

I thought that love was just a word
They sang about in songs I heard
It took your kisses to reveal
That I was wrong and love is real


Hold me close and hold me fast
The magic spell you cast
This is la Vie en Rose


When you kiss me heaven sighs
And though I close my eyes
I see la Vie en Rose


When you press me to your heart
I'm in a world apart,
A world where roses bloom


And when you speak, angels sing from above
Everyday words seem to turn into love songs


Give your heart and soul to me
And life will always be
La Vie en Rose
