Ma Belle Amie, you were a child of the sun
And the sky and the deep blue sea
Ma Belle Amie, apres tout les beau jours
Je te dis merci merci

You were the answer to all my questions before we were through
I want to tell ya that I adore ya and always do
That you amaze me by leaving me now to start a new
My Belle Amie, I'm in love with you

Let the bells ring, let the birds sing
Let's give my substitute a big kiss
Let the bells ring, let the birds sing
For the man after him waits here
For the man after him waits here

Ma Belle Amie, you were a child of the sun
And the sky and the deep blue sea
Ma Belle Amie, it was a time when you thought
That your only friend was me

You were the answer to all my questions before we were through
I want to tell ya that I adore ya and always do
That you amaze me by leaving me now to start a new
Ma Belle Amie, I'm in love with you

Let the bells ring, let the birds sing
Let's give my substitute a big kiss
Let the bells ring, let the birds sing
For the man after him waits here
For the man after him waits here

Ma Belle Amie, you were a child of the sun
And the sky and the deep blue sea
Ma belle amie, apres tout les beau jours
Je te dis merci merci

You were the answer to all my questions before we were through
I want to tell ya that I adore ya and always do
That you amaze me by leaving me now to start a new
Ma Belle Amie, I'm in love with you
Ma belle amie, I'm in love with you
