Peut-être Lyrics in English Calogero

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Peut-être by Calogero from French to English.
Maybe she'll have kids
Maybe she'll have two moms
Maybe her ocean eyes will close on a lover, maybe
Maybe she'll play violin
Maybe she'll tame lions
She'll build planes all by herself behind the bars of a prison
Maybe or maybe not
Maybe she'll live, she'll see
All the choices we can make
That reassure people on this earth
Maybe or maybe not
I hope she'll choose
To fulfill her childhood dreams
To let her carriage go by
Maybe she'll love for a moment
Maybe she'll leave some blanks
Maybe she'll die at twenty
Or she'll play at being Jeanne Calment, maybe
Maybe she'll follow him to London
Maybe she'll dye her hair blonde
She'll disguise the Mona Lisa and she'll p*ss off everyone
Maybe or maybe not
Maybe she'll live, she'll see
All the choices we can make
That reassure people on this earth
Maybe or maybe not
I hope she'll choose
To fulfill her childhood dreams
To let her carriage go by
To let her carriage go by
Maybe or maybe not
Maybe she'll live, she'll see
All the choices we can make
That reassure people on this earth
Maybe or maybe not
Like you, she'll decide
To fulfill her childhood dreams
To let her carriage go by

SONG MEANING

Peut-être is Calogero’s joyful ode to possibility. Line after line, he paints a thousand futures for an imaginary girl: she might play violin, tame lions, build airplanes, fall in love, or dye her hair blonde in London. Each maybe opens another door, reminding us that life is a vast playground of choices where nothing is fixed and everything can still happen.

Behind the playful list of what she "might" do lies a gentle message: whatever path she picks, the most important choice is to chase her childhood dreams and let her own carriage roll by. The song celebrates freedom, curiosity, and the courage to invent your own story—exactly the spirit every language learner needs on their own adventure.
