those english lyrics are still wrong. these are infinitely more accurate. here ya go: -------------------------------------- Those eyes that makes kisses with mine A laugh that loses itself on his mouth Here is the untouched up picture Of the man who belongs to me When he takes me in his arms, He talks to me very softly I see La Vie en Rose He says to me words of love These words everyday And this does something to me He entered in my heart A part of happiness Of which I know the cause It’s him for me. Me for him In this life He told me that, he swore it for life And ever since I noticed that I felt My heart beating Nights of love to no longer finishing A great happiness takes its place Sorrowful problems, phases, Happy, happy until death When he takes me in his arms, He talks to me very softly I see La Vie en Rose He says to me words of love These words everyday And this does something to me He entered in my heart A part of happiness Of which I know the cause It’s you for me, me for you In this life He said that to me, swore it for life And ever since I noticed that I felt My heart beating |

| Ted Leo and the Pharmacists – Walking To Do Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
actually, i live in DC. while, rock creek park may be a park, it is in no way comparable to NYC's central park. it's actually very insignificant. and "the The Ave" is actually really "Virginia Ave." once you get on rock creek parkway, you keep going until you hit Virginia ave and the zoo isn't very far from there. |
