Il est flou
It's blurry
Flou le paysage
Blurry is the landscape
Tu rougis
You blush
Même quand il fait noir trop pour t'y voir
Even when it's too dark to see you there
Cachée dans ton lit
Hidden in your bed
Tu fuis
You flee
Le regard d'autrui
The gaze of others
Pourtant la vie...
Yet life...
Parler d'avenir
Talking about the future
T'effraie et si c'était un souffle où le vide
Frights you, and what if it were a breath where emptiness
Tu voudrais juste t'endormir
You just want to fall asleep
Quoique l'on en dise
No matter what they say
Je vais oublier tes doutes pour l'autre rive
I will forget your doubts for the other side
Au moins le temps d'un rire
At least for the time of a laugh
L'eau
The water
Coule dans ton manteau
Flows in your coat
Me glacer
Chill me
Me plonger dans ta réalité
Immerse me in your reality
T'évader dans du
To escape you in some
Satin
Poursuivre un chemin
Pursue a path
Le tien mais là
Yours, but here
Parler d'avenir
Talk of the future
T'effraie et si c'était un souffle où le vide
Frightens you, and what if it were a breath where the void
Tu voudrais juste t'endormir
You just want to fall asleep
Quoique l'on en dise
No matter what they say
Je vais oublier tes doutes pour l'autre rive
I will forget your doubts for the other shore
Au moins le temps d'un rire
At least for the time of a laugh
Parler d'avenir
Talk of the future
T'effraie et si c'était un souffle où le vide
Frightens you, and what if it were a breath where the void
Tu voudrais juste t'endormir
You just want to fall asleep
Quoique l'on en dise
Though they may say otherwise
Je vais oublier tes doutes pour l'autre rive
I will forget your doubts for the other side
Au moins le temps d'un rire
At least for the time of a laugh
Au moins le temps d'un rire
At least for the time of a laugh
