It was succeeded as French representative at the 1963 contest by Alain Barrière with "Elle était si jolie".

Un premier amour, premier amour, premier amour
Ne s'oublie jamais, s'oublie jamais, s'oublie jamais
Un premier amour on le cherche toujours
Dans d'autres amours toute sa vie on court après
Il nous a troublé et fait rêver, et fait trembler
Ce premier amour, premier amour, premier amour
Mais l'enfant qu'on est, l'enfant qu'on est resté
Frémira toujours au souvenir de cet amour
Et toi, et toi que j'aimais
Qu'as-tu fait de toi, qu'as-tu fait sans moi
Et moi, moi qui t'ai perdu, qu'ai-je fait de plus
Qu'ai-je fait de tant de bonheur, savions nous d'ailleurs
Qu'un premier amour, premier amour, premier amour
Ne s'oublie jamais, s'oublie jamais, s'oublie jamais
Qu'un premier amour on le cherche toujours
Dans d'autres amours toute sa vie on court après
De tous ces baisers qu'on s'est volés plus que donnés
Ces gestes innocents nous engageaient pour si longtemps
Non les enfants d'alors que nous étions encore
N'ont pas soupçonné tant ils étaient émerveillés
Qu'un premier amour, leur premier amour, était si fort
