| La route de San Francisco (original) | La route de San Francisco (translation) |
|---|---|
| C’etait en plein ete | It was in the middle of summer |
| La route rougeoyant | The glowing road |
| Et toute seule je marchais | And all alone I walked |
| Sans savoir ou aller | Without knowing where to go |
| Il est venu vers moi | He came to me |
| Et sans savoir pourquoi | And without knowing why |
| J’ai su que c’etait lui que j’attendais | I knew it was him I was waiting for |
| Refrain | Chorus |
| Californie | California |
| Sous le soleil du mois d’aout | Under the August sun |
| On a marche sur la route | We walked down the road |
| De San Francisco | From San Francisco |
| Comme deux amis | like two friends |
| C’etait le destin sans doute | It was fate no doubt |
| Qui nous a mis sur la route | Who put us on the road |
| De San Francisco | From San Francisco |
| On a marche ensemble | We walked together |
| Un moment sans rien dire | A moment without saying anything |
| Et c’est lui il me semble | And that's him it seems |
| Qui m’a fait un sourire | who gave me a smile |
| Je n’ai pas resiste | I did not resist |
| Quand il m’a pris la main | When he took my hand |
| Le soleil se couchait | The sun was setting |
| Sur le chemin | On the road |
| Refrain | Chorus |
| La nuit s’est refermee | The night has closed |
| Sur nos corps enlaces | On our intertwined bodies |
| Je sais que je ne l’oublierai jamais | I know I'll never forget it |
| Refrain 2 fois | Chorus 2 times |
| Californie | California |
| Sous le soleil du mois d’aout | Under the August sun |
| On a marche sur la route | We walked down the road |
| De San Francisco | From San Francisco |
