Some rhymed couplets, a joyous refrain, it's 1943 in Paris and Edith Piaf is singing of her love in this classic chanson, words by Edith Piaf, music by Alèc Siniavine: It's a year before she met singer/actor Yves Montand, but he dominates this video because his pictures most suit the romantic text. Others in her list of lovers, Greek singer/songwriter Georges Moustaki ("Milord"),world boxing champion Marcel Cerdan, American actor Eddie Constantine, French actors Jacques Pills and Paul Meurisse, French songwriter Henri Contet, ("Padam, Padam")and hairdresser/singer Théo Sarapo. Charles Aznavour makes an appearance but was reported not to be serious lover.
Thanks to philipchek of YouTube and Paris who guides non-francophones through the vagaries of chanson and the French language and helped with this translation. See his channel for English songs with French subtitles.

The REAL Love of Edith's life, was Marcel Cerdan!! He was killed in an airplane crash, coming from Paris to New York, to see her.

Dans la vie on est peau d’balle
Quand notre cœur est a clou.
Sans amour on n’est rien de tout.
