Lyrics of Celui qui savait pas pleurer - Édith Piaf

Celui qui savait pas pleurer (original)

C’est l’histoire d’un type moyen
Qui n’avait jamais pu pleurer
Il en avait pas les moyens
Pourtant, il aurait bien aim?
Car de pleurer,?
A vous soulage
Et?
A vous met du baume dans l’c?
Ur
Mais lui, il avait pass?
L'?
Ge
D’apprendre le chagrin par c?
Ur
Il essayait de se concentrer
Pour s'?
Mouvoir?
L’improviste
Mais non: il savait pas pleurer
Et c’est?
A qui le rendait triste
Pour se payer ce petit instant
O?
L’on est vraiment malheureux
Y s’fabriquait des emb?
Tements
Inventait des ennuis s?
Rieux
Et pour?
A, il savait s’y prendre
A en juger par son pass?
Il avait m?
Me tent?
De se pendre
Preuve qu’il aimait pas rigoler
Quand s’pr?
Sentait un beau malheur
Tout de suite il lui faisait du charme
Mais il avait beau s’crever l’c?
Ur
Il pouvait pas trouver une larme
?
A lui a pass?
Subitement
Rencontrant pr?
S d’une fontaine
O?
Se d?
Barbouillait l’printemps
Une gosse qui avait de la peine
Dans son petit tablier de toile
Elle pleurait comme une enfant
Il a vu ses yeux pleins d'?
Toiles
Alors il en a fait autant
Un type comme?
A, c’est pas commun
Car il?
Tait pas comme nous autres
Puisque, pour qu’il ait du chagrin
Il lui fallait l’chagrin des autres
La gosse?
Tait toute seule au monde
Tout' seule le jour, tout' seule la nuit
Et puis surtout, elle?
Tait blonde
Alors il l’a prise avec lui
Il est content puisque c’est elle
Qui lui a appris?
Pleurer
Mais la le?
On?
Tait trop belle
La fille aussi… Tout a rat?
Il est devenu bien malheureux
Tromp?
Plus qu’il ne le m?
Rite
Et tous les jours, il pleure un peu
Maintenant qu’il sait, il en profite

This is the story of an average guy
Who could never cry
He couldn't afford it
Still, he would have liked?
Because to cry,?
To relieve you
And?
A puts balm in your heart?
Ur
But he had passed?
L'?
Ge
To learn grief by c?
Ur
He was trying to concentrate
For if?
Move?
The improvisation
But no: he didn't know how to cry
And it's?
Who made him sad
To pay for this little moment
Where?
We are really unhappy
Were emb made?

Made up trouble s?
Rieux
And for?
A, he knew how to do it
Judging by his background?
He had m?
Tempt me?
To hang himself
Proof that he did not like to laugh
When is it?
Felt a beautiful misfortune
Right away he charmed her
But no matter how much he died
Ur
He couldn't find a tear
?
What happened to him?
Suddenly
Meeting pr?
S of a fountain
Where?
Se d?
Smeared the spring
A kid who was in pain
In her little canvas apron
She was crying like a child
He saw her eyes full of?
canvases
So he did the same
A guy like?
A, it's not common
Because he?
Don't be like us
Since, for him to have sorrow
He needed the grief of others
The kid?
Was all alone in the world
All alone by day, all alone at night
And above all, her?
was blonde
So he took her with him
He's happy since it's her
Who taught him?
Weep
But the the?
We?
You were too beautiful
The girl too... All a rat?
He became very unhappy
Cheat?
More than he m?
Rite
And every day he cries a little
Now that he knows, he enjoys it
