Monday
Tuesday
Day after day life slips away
Monday, it's just another morning
Tuesday, I only feel like living
Dancing along with every songs
Dancing along with every song
Moi je vis d'amour et de danse
I live on love and dance
Je vis comme si j'étais en vacances
I live as if I were on vacation
Je vis comme si j'étais éternelle
I live as if I were eternal
Comme si les nouvelles étaient sans problèmes
As if the news were carefree
Moi je vis d'amour et de rires
I live on love and laughter
Je vis comme si y'avait rien à dire
I live as if there's nothing to say
J'ai tout le temps d'écrire mes mémoires
I have all the time to write my memoirs
D'écrire mon histoire à l'encre bleue
To write my story in blue ink
Laissez-moi danser, laissez-moi
Let me dance, let me
Laissez-moi danser, chanter en liberté tout l'été
Let me dance, sing freely all summer long
Laissez-moi danser (Monday), laissez-moi (Tuesday)
Let me dance (Monday), let me (Tuesday)
Aller jusqu'au bout du rêve
To go all the way to the end of the dream
Monday, it's just another morning
Tuesday, I only feel like living
Dancing along with every songs
Dancing along with every song
Moi, je vis d'amour et de risque
Me, I live for love and for risk
Quand ça va pas, je tourne le disque
When things go wrong, I turn the record
Je vais, je viens j'ai appris à vivre
I go, I come, I've learned to live
Comme si j'étais libre et en équilibre
As if I were free and in balance
Moi, je vis d'amour et de rires
Me, I live for love and for laughter
Je vis comme si y'avait rien à dire
I live as if there was nothing to say
J'ai tout le temps d'écrire mes mémoires
I have all the time to write my memoirs
D'écrire mon histoire à l'encre bleue
To write my story in blue ink
Laissez-moi danser, laissez-moi
Let me dance, let me
Laissez-moi danser, chanter en liberté tout l'été
Let me dance, sing freely all summer long
Laissez-moi danser (Monday), laissez-moi (Tuesday)
Let me dance (Monday), let me (Tuesday)
Aller jusqu'au bout du rêve
Go all the way to the end of the dream
Monday, it's just another morning
Tuesday, I only feel like living
Dancing along with every songs
Dancing along with every song
Day after day life oh slips away
Laissez-moi danser, laissez-moi
Let me dance, let me
Laissez-moi danser, chanter en liberté tout l'été
Let me dance, sing freely all summer long
Laissez-moi danser (Monday), laissez-moi (Tuesday)
Let me dance (Monday), let me (Tuesday)
Aller jusqu'au bout du rêve
Go all the way to the end of the dream
Monday
Tuesday
Day after day life slips away
Day after day, life drifts away
Monday, it's just another morning
Tuesday, I only feel like living
Tuesday, I only want to feel alive
Day after day life slips and brings new day
Day after day, life slips away and brings a new dawn
