Don't tell our friends

Don't tell our friends
That I love you more than anything
Don't tell our friends
What there is between us
 
We have made so much fun of them
On matters of love
That they would be too glad
To have a good laugh themselves
 
Don't tell our friends
That we feel only good when we´re together
Don't tell our friends
That I do what you want
 
And that I am dismal
When I don't see you
Don't tell our friends
That is none of their business
 
Don't tell our friends
That it was you who gave me
The silver medal
That I wear on my wrist
 
You had it around your neck
When you took it off
And said: "It's for you"
And then you kissed me
 
Don't tell our friends
That everything seems to have changed for us
That we suddenly
Would like to be much older
 
So we could go away, you and me
Very very far away
And could that day
Tell our friends about it
 
So we could go away, you and me
Very very far away
And could that day
Tell our friends about it

This would be a perfect song to be played at a wedding reception because it describes what love is like between a man and a woman.

Overall a good translation, but I think it can be improved with a few small changes :smile:

Here are my suggestions:

Ce q'uil il y a entre nous
What we have between us

Au sujet de l'amour
About love

And that I'm sad
Et que j'ai du chagrin

à mon poignet
on my wrist

Et tu m'as embrassée
And kissed me

Et pouvoir ce jour-là
En parler aux copains
And on that day
Tell our friends about it
