Je suivais la mort dans l'âme
I followed death in the soul
Sue, perdu dans Manhattan
Sue, lost in Manhattan
Le manteau beige et les lunettes noires
The beige coat and black glasses
La neige et le désespoir
Snow and despair
sa vie comme elle était!
his life as it was!
Et nos larmes qui montaient
And our tears rising
Mais ce n'est pas tant
But it's not so much
Suzanne qui me plait tant
Suzanne who I like so much
C'est le mystère qui est dedans
It's the mystery that's inside
Le mystère dedans
The mystery inside
Le mystère dedans
The mystery inside
Je suivais musique et paroles
I followed music and lyrics
Mon chemin de rossignol
My nightingale path
Chantant mon chant émouvant
Singing my soulful song
On était plus jeunes avant
We were younger before
La folie fée qui m'a touché
The fairy madness that touched me
En l'embrassant, ma bouche a tremblé
As I kissed him, my mouth trembled
Mais ce n'est pas tant
But it's not so much
Ma vie qui me plait tant
My life that I like so much
C'est le mystère qui est dedans
It's the mystery that's inside
Le mystère dedans
The mystery inside
Mon amour comme ses yeux brillent
My love how her eyes shine
Quand elle jette pour moi ses espadrilles
When she throws away her sneakers for me
Pourtant la voilà repartie
Yet here she goes again
Retrouver l'autre abruti
Find the other idiot
Qui lui fout des marrons
Who gives him chestnuts
Quand il est rond
When it's round
Mais ce n'est pas tant
But it's not so much
Cette fille qui me plait tant
This girl that I like so much
C'est le mystère qui est dedans
It's the mystery that's inside
Le mystère dedans
The mystery inside
La vie nous dit et nous contredit
Life tells us and contradicts us
Tout se dédit de ce qu'on a dit
Everything is said about what we said
Les discours de tous ces bandits
The speeches of all these bandits
Les statues de jocrisse qu'on hisse
The jocrisse statues that are hoisted
Qu'on embrasse et puis qu'on dévisse
That we kiss and then unscrew
Les avions en piqué dans ce désir de kiss
The planes dive into this desire to kiss
Les chansons inhabitées
The uninhabited songs
Les guitares de Keith
Keith's guitars
Mais ce n'est pas tant
But it's not so much
Ce monde qui me plait tant
This world that I like so much
C'est le mystère qui est dedans
It's the mystery that's inside
Le mystère dedans
The mystery inside
Ce n'est pas tant
It's not so much
Ce monde qui me plait tant
This world that I like so much
C'est le mystère qui est dedans
It's the mystery that's inside
Le mystère dedans
The mystery inside
Le mystère dedans
The mystery inside
Le mystère dedans
The mystery inside
