Questa notte o mai
Georgine, Georgette
tu ritornerai
Georgine, Georgette
questa notte o mai
ti rivedrò
per qualcosa che è nell'aria
e che non so
Forse tu non sai
Georgine, Georgette
quello che potrebbe guidarti da me
non si ripeterà
e perciò ritornerai
stanotte o mai
. . . . .
Georgine, Georgette
. . . . .
Forse tu non sai
Georgine, Georgette
quello che potrebbe guidarti da me
non si ripeterà
e perciò ritornerai
stanotte o mai...

Original version
Did I hear you say "Je vous adore"?
Have you ever said these words before?
Do you really means with all your night
All the pretty little things you've said
While holding me tight
This wonderful night?
If you wonder why I speak this way
Not so long ago I was Fool for a Day
Now hold me
If you want to kiss me
Darling make it all so right
Promise it will never be
Just for tonight?

Revised version
Could we make it just for us tonight?
On the table, only candlelight
Could we find some violins that say
All the little things we've thought and felt today?
Could we stop a while at old Maxime's
for a final round of absinthe and dreams?
Then, when the moment's right
Take advantage of this mood, just for tonight?
