The hours pass
And I wait for you
With a beating heart
The hours pass
And I wait for you
With a beating heart
It's just a long journey
To the land of infidelity
Go on, you'll come back wiser
With more maturity
I wait for you, while others
Love is a countdown
I love you and always will
I wait for you
It had all started badly.
Oh, yes...
very badly indeed.
this was four or five years back -
I'd just finished
my military service,
and when I came home,
I met Irne...
waiting for me at the station,
right where she'd seen me off
18 months earlier.
Sweet Irne!
So I'd just finished
my military service,
and when I came home,
I met Irne
waiting for me at the station,
right where she'd seen me off
18 months earlier...
with Martine.
Charming Martine!
Irne, Martine, and I
had known each other a long time.
We were inseparable
childhood friends.
We lived in the provinces,
in the same city...
all three of us.
Depending on the days
and their moods,
I'd go out with Martine,
or I'd go out with Irne.
Sometimes I'd even go out with both,
especially on Sundays.
We'd go dancing together.
We'd take walks
when the weather was nice.
I remember...
there was also -
what was her name again?
Thrse!
She was nice, Thrse.
She was very sweet,
and from a good family.
Her father was a notary
and regional councillor.
Her mother did watercolors.
They'd given her
Latin, piano, sewing.
They'd taught her everything.
In those days,
when I knew her,
she'd just finished
her schooling at the convent.
But quickly,
too quickly, she went bad.
I could just as well
have married Martine.
Why not?
Martine... or Irne.
And even lots of others.
Florence,
I first met on the terrace
of the Caf de Paris.
No, that's not right.
It wasn't on the terrace,
but inside
the Caf de Paris.
Not so.
I know what I'm saying.
It was on the terrace.
What am I talking about!
It wasn't the terrace...
Make up your mind!
The terrace is the terrace.
Inside is inside.
I'm starting to get -
It's hot.
Let's go sit on the terrace.
Yes, on the terrace.
After that, obviously,
Florence and I
saw each other again.
We'd meet as if by chance...
More and more often,
almost on a daily basis.
I LOVE YOU:
Then one thing
leads to another, like it or not.
You never know
but they happen.
For Florence and me,
it all happened so fast.
I didn't even realize.
One fine day in spring,
Florence suddenly decided
to invite me to her home.
She got it into her head
to have me meet her parents.
An obsession.
And I said all right, of course...
totally unsuspecting.
Coming?
Go in.
Papa.
Pleased to meet you.
Mama.
Pleased to meet you.
Mr. and Mrs. Girard
I should have known.
My grandmother.
Florence adored her parents,
especially her mother.
There were pictures of her
all over the house.
Is that you?
You studied dance?
- A little.
- I like dance.
Will you have a drink?
I declined all drink and smoke,
as if I had no faults.
This might amuse you, children.
Shall we?
to make a good impression.
I succeeded only too well.
- Who's this little girl?
- That's Papa.
That's cousin Elisa.
Your grandmother's goddaughter.
And that's her husband...
who's up there in the frame.
