I used to know a little square
Back in Paris when I was small
All summer long it had a fair
Wonderful fair with swings and all
I used to love my little fair
And at the closing, every day
I could be found
Dancing around
A merry-go-round
That used to play:

“Oh mon amour…
A toi toujours…
Dans tes grands yeux…
Rien que nous deux...”

All summer long my little fair
Made every day a holiday
Night after night it used to glare
People came there from far away
Everyone sang the little tune
All over town you heard it played
Even Peppi
From Napoli
He sang to Marie
This serenade:

“Oh mon amour…
A toi toujours…
Dans tes grands yeux…
Rien que nous deux...”

I can’t forget my little square
And even though I’m far away
I can’t forget my little fair
Maybe it’s there, still there today…
Sometimes I hear my little tune
And in a dream of long ago
And in my brain
Ran the little refrain
The old French refrain
I used to know:

“Oh mon amour…
A toi toujours…
Dans tes grands yeux…
Rien que nous deux...”
