Je t’aime – a murmur at dawn’s first light
Je t’aime – a whisper when we kissed goodnight.
Je t’aime, I Love You, Je t’aime
I’d give the world to hear you tell me again – Je t’aime.
In the fragrance of gardenias, I sense you near.
In the words of a song, it’s your voice I hear.
In a gentle breeze I feel your caress
Birds in flight our love express.
Je t’aime, I love you, Je t’aime
I’d give the world to hear you tell me again – Jetaime
Je t’aime – a greeting. Je t’aime – good bye
A symphony, a lullaby.
Je t’aime, I love you, Je t’aime
I’d give the world to hear you tell me again – Je t’aime.
Our dream was shattered, but our love endures
Always and forever, as faith assures.
No one else will ever take your place.
I long to return to your embrace
Je t’aime, I love you, Je t’aime.
I’d give the world to hear you tell me again – Jet’aime.
Gleeful as a circus, solemn as a prayer
Whenever you say it, I am there.
Je t’aime, I love you, Je t’aime
I’d give the world to hear you tell me again – Je t’aime.
Eternity is the promise of tomorrow
Filled with joy, free of sorrow.
So welcome me at heaven’s door
And we’ll be together forever more
Je t’aime, I love you, Je t’aime
I’d give the world to hear you tell me again – Je t’aime.
