PAROLES

[Verse 1]
We don’t have New York towers
We don’t have daylight six months a year
We don’t have Beaubourg nor the Seine
We are not the city of love
But hey, you see
And surely that from this evening
The sky will cover a hurricane
But after the storm, with beers
People will party

[Chorus]
Brussels, I love you
Brussels, I love you
I had missed you
Brussels, I love you
Brussels, I love you
You’re my favourite
Brussels, I love you
Brussels, I love you
I had missed you
You’re the prettiest
Yes, you’re the prettiest

[Post-Chorus]
Paris calls me when I want to go home
When I miss grey sky and rain
I feel better when I see you
Cities are beautiful but I only think about you
When I miss my country and my city I don’t forget you

[Verse 2]
We don’t have the longest of all histories
We know it, we haven’t always won
And usually, I got the attitude, even if it’s hard to keep hope
When we’re not the firsts
Les Marolles, Flagey, Saint-Gilles, Laeken, to whom I owe my name

[Chorus]
Brussels, I love you
Brussels, I love you
I had missed you
Brussels, I love you
Brussels, I love you
You’re my favourite
Brussels, I love you
Brussels, I love you
I had missed you
You’re the prettiest
Yes, you’re the prettiest

[Post-Chorus]
Paris calls me when I want to go home
When I miss grey sky and rain
I feel better when I see you
Cities are beautiful but I only think about you
When I miss my country and my city I don’t forget you

[Verse 3]
And if one day she come to split and we’d have to choose our side
It would be the worst of nightmares, all this for a matter of languages
I lived my most beautiful stories in French and in Flemish
Laat me het zeggen in het Vlaams, dank je Brussel voor m’n naam
And if one day she come to split and we’d have to choose our side
It would be the worst of nightmares, all this for a matter of languages
I lived my most beautiful stories in French and in Flemish
Laat me het zeggen in het Vlaams, dank je Brussel

[Chorus]
Brussels, I love you
Brussels, I love you
I had missed you
Brussels, I love you
Brussels, I love you
You’re my favourite
Brussels, I love you
Brussels, I love you
I had missed you
You’re the prettiest
Yes, you’re the prettiest

[Post-Chorus]
Paris calls me when I want to go home
When I miss grey sky and rain
I feel better when I see you
Cities are beautiful but I only think about you
When I miss my country and my city I don’t forget you
Paris calls me when I want to go home
When I miss grey sky and rain
I feel better when I see you
Cities are beautiful but I only think about you
When I miss my country and my city I don’t forget you
