lyrics
Françoise Hardy stepped into a party
Everyone there knew her name
The dying embers of late September
Françoise was a flickering flame
I longed to meet her so I went to talk
When she passed by near the door
I lost my mojo with the lights down low
Should I go now Françoise
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
I could hardly stop my heartbeat
Racing like a butterfly near a flame
Could not remember how I should tell her
That to me she was much more than a name
I longed to tell her how I loved her so
Françoise je vous adore
Then I saw her as she turned to go
And so went dear Françoise
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Françoise Hardy
