Si tu disais "on y va"
If you said, 'let's go'
Si tu disais "j'en ai tellement marre d'être ici"
If you said, 'I've had enough of being here'
Je t'écouterais, crois-moi
I would listen to you, believe me
Je n'hésiterais pas
I wouldn't hesitate
Que ce soit pour une ville
Whether it's for a city
Ou pour un bled, un bout de terre paumé
Or for some backwater, a lost piece of land
Crois-moi, ça me défriserais pas
Believe me, it wouldn't frizz my hair
Je serai prêt comme si j'attendais
I would be ready as if I were waiting
Si tu disais "jusque là"
If you said, 'up to there'
On s'est contenté de rien
We settled for nothing
Et ça va un peu
And it's going a bit
Je t'approuverais, crois-moi
I would agree with you, believe me
Je répondrais "c'est vrai"
I would reply 'it's true'
Chaque pan de mur, chaque fissure
Every wall section, every crack
Je connais trop le dessin de cet endroit-là
I know this place's layout too well
Oh, si tu disais ça
Oh, if you said that
Je serais prêt comme si j'attendais
I would be ready as if I were waiting
Si tu disais "on y va"
If you said 'let's go'
Si tu disais que pour nous, c'est le bon moment
If you said that for us, it's the right time
Je t'approuverais, crois-moi
I would agree with you, believe me
Je suis prêt depuis longtemps
I've been ready for a long time
Mais tu ne dis rien de tout ça
But you say none of this
Tu ne décides rien
You don't decide anything
Je ne sais pas si tu as idée
I don't know if you have an idea
De ce qu'on pourrait faire
Of what we could do
Je me demande pourquoi tu es là
I wonder why you're here
Si tu disais "on y va"
If you said 'let's go'
Si tu disais "j'en ai tellement marre d'être ici"
If you said 'I'm so tired of being here'
Je t'écouterais, crois-moi
I would listen to you, believe me
Je n'hésiterais pas
I wouldn't hesitate
Si tu disais ça
If you said that
Si tu disais
If you said
Si tu disais
If you said
