I agree.. although the song's music may be kitsch like, I so so love what Joe Dassin wanted to express by his words... sigh... I think it is the basic definition of love at its greatest. Seriously, don't you think that (with English translation):
Et si tu n'existais pas (And if you didn't exist)
Dis-moi comment j'existerais (Tell me how would I exist?)
Je pourrais faire semblant d'etre moi (I could pretend to be me)
Mais je ne serais pas vrai (But I would not be true)
Et si tu n'existais pas (And if you didn't exist)
Je crois que je l'aurais trouve (I think I would have found it)
Le secret de la vie, le pourquoi (The secret of life, the 'why')
Simplement pour te creer (Simply to create you)
Et pour te regarder (And to look at you)
is a very powerful and romantic imagery/ statement?? ... my heart melts...
