Original Lyrics
Translation in French
intro
When I was young
Quand j'étais jeune
verse
I'd listen to the radio
J'écoutais à la radio
Waitin' for my favorite songs
Écrivant pour ma chanson favorite
verse
When they played I'd sing along
Quand ils passaient, je les chantais tous
It made me smile
ça me faisait sourire
verse
Those were such happy times
C'étaient des moments heureux
And not so long ago
Et il y'a peu de temps
How I wondered where they'd gone
Je me demandais où ils étaient passés
But they're back again
Mais ils sont de retour
chorus
Just like a long lost friend
Tout comme un vieil ami perdu
All the songs I loved so well
Toutes les chansons que j'aimais tellement
Every sha-la-la-la
Tous les Sha-la-la-la
Every whoa-ooh-whoa
Tous les whoa-oooh-whoa
Still shines
Brillent encore
verse
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
Tous les shing-a-ling-a-ling
chorus
That they're startin' to sing
Avec lesquels ils commencent à chanter
So fine
Tellement bien
verse
When they get to the part
Quand ils arrivent à la partie
Where he's breakin' her heart
Où il brise son coeur
It can really make me cry
ça peut vraiment me faire pleurer
Just like before
Comme autrefois
verse
It's yesterday once more
C'est hier une fois de plus
verse
Lookin' back on
Regarde en arrière
How it was in years gone by
Comment c'était dans les années écoulées
And the good times that I had
Tous les bons moments que j'ai eu
Makes today seem rather sad
Rend aujourd'hui plutôt triste
So much has changed
ça a tellement changé
verse
It was songs of love
C'etaient des chansons d'amour
That I would sing to them
Que je leur chanterais
And I'd memorize each word
Et je memoriserais chaque mot
Those old melodies
Ces vieilles mélodies
chorus
Still sound so good to me
Me sont toujours agréables
As they melt the years away
Même si elles ont fait fondre les années
Every Sha-la-la-la
Tous les Sha-la-la-la
Every whoa-ooh-whoa
Tous les whoa-oooh-whoa
Still shines
Brillent encore
verse
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
Tous les shing-a-ling-a-ling
chorus
That they're startin' to sing
Avec lesquels ils commencent à chanter
So fine
Tellement bien
verse
All my best memories
Tous mes bons souvenirs
Come back clearly to me
Me reviennent clairement
Some can even make me cry
Certains peuvent même me faire pleurer
Just like before
Comme autrefois
chorus
It's yesterday once more
C'est hier une fois de plus
Every sha-la-la-la
Tous les Sha-la-la-la
Every whoa-ooh-whoa
Tous les whoa-oooh-whoa
Still shines
Brillent encore
outro
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
Tous les shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' to sing
Avec lesquels ils commencent à chanter
So fine
Tellement bien
Every Sha-la-la-la
Tous les Sha-la-la-la
Every whoa-ooh whoa
Tous les whoa-oooh-whoa
Still shines
Brillent encore
