Do you recall when we met?
How you sang, just to me,
all night long.
I called you my "Chansonette"
For to me you were like your song.

Chansonette, Chansonette,
Love was born when we met,
For ever and a day,
let me stay by your side.
Ev'ry gleam of the moon
Brings a dream of the tune,
That melody divine,
always mine as my guide.
The rose that blooms on each tomorrow
Its fragrance shall borrow from you.
Chansonette, Chansonette,
You will never regret
Forever to be known as
my own Chansonette.

Chansonette, Chansonette,
Love was born when we met,
For ever and a day,
let me stay by your side.
Ev'ry gleam of the moon
Brings a dream of the tune,
That melody divine,
always mine as my guide.
The rose that blooms on each tomorrow
Its fragrance shall borrow from you.
Chansonette, Chansonette,
You will never regret
Forever to be known as
my own Chansonette.
My Chansonette, my Chansonette.
