Si La Vie Avance Lyrics in English Boulevard des Airs

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Si La Vie Avance by Boulevard des Airs from French to English.
Time flies and that's all
We breathe in spite of ourselves
We do what we can
We talk we keep on talking
Before we die
We truly do our best
He said life is terraces
And sunsets
He said dreams are the prose of life
You gotta always believe in them
If life moves on, if life moves on, it ends one day
And me, when I think about it
And me, when I think about it
I'm filled with love
If life moves on, if life moves on
It ends one day
And me when I think about it, and me when I think about it
I'm filled with love
He said that at his age, it's time to head for the clouds
A smile till the end
He said every time that everything will vanish
Vanish in turn
The sky and then the earth, our kids and our dads
And then us in the middle
Life ain't much, some dreams and some prose
But make of it what you want
If life moves on, if life moves on
It ends one day
And me when I think about it, and me when I think about it
I'm filled with love
If life moves on, if life moves on
It ends one day
And me when I think about it, and me when I think about it
I'm filled with love
If life moves on, if life moves on
It ends one day
And me when I think about it, and me when I think about it
I'm filled with love
If life moves on, if life moves on
It ends one day
And me when I think about it, and me when I think about it
I'm filled with love

SONG MEANING

“Si La Vie Avance” invites you to sit at a sun-drenched French terrace and watch the world glide by. Boulevard des Airs reminds us that time slips through our fingers, yet in that flow we keep breathing, talking, and dreaming. Life may be “not much—just some dreams and a bit of prose,” but the band turns those humble ingredients into a glowing postcard of sunsets, café laughter, and the quiet courage of doing our best.

The chorus repeats like a gentle mantra: “If life moves on, it ends one day, and when I think about it I’m filled with love.” Rather than mourning what will disappear, the song urges us to let that awareness flood us with gratitude. Celebrate the small moments, believe in your dreams, and smile right up to the clouds. By the end you will feel the bittersweet truth that our limited time is exactly what makes every heartbeat, every conversation, and every burst of sunlight so precious.
