These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
C'est un garçon triste qui connaît bien l'attente, c'est un gosse oublié
He's a sad boy who knows the wait well, he's a forgotten kid
Oui c'est un garçon triste, et son coeur de brocante à prendre ou à laisser
Yes he is a sad boy, and his heart of flea market to take or leave
Comme les garçons tristes, il invente, il résiste pour se faire remarquer
Like the sad boys, he invents, he resists to be noticed
Comme si la tristesse cette mauvaise, cette sorcière l'avait fait s'envoler
As if the sadness this bad, this witch had made it fly away
Et comme les garçons tristes, il dessine sans répit
And like the sad boys, he draws without respite
De quoi se consoler
What to console yourself
Un frisson, un délice, un instant, un abri
A thrill, a delight, a moment, a shelter
Quelque chose à rêver
Something to dream about
J'aime ce garçon triste, comme a chaque sourire il semble s'excuser
I love this sad boy, as has every smile he seems to apologize
J'aime comme il sait croire comme il sait s'éblouir simplement d'exister
I like how he can believe how he can simply dazzle to exist
Je chante un garçon triste qui se donne des grands airs pour ne pas se noyer
I sing a sad boy who gives himself great airs so as not to drown
Comme tout les garçons tristes il aime jouer au cador jouer au roi du quartier
Like all sad boys he likes to play cador playing the king of the neighborhood
Et puis ce garçon triste est entré dans ma vie
And then this sad boy came into my life
Il a tout dérangé
He disturbed everything
Mes rêves et leurs esquisses mes souvenirs, mes délires
My dreams and their sketches my memories, my delusions
Il a tout emporté
He took it all away
C'est pour un garçon triste que j'ai posé mes armes doucement à ses pieds
It was for a sad boy that I laid my arms gently at his feet
Et pour ce garçon triste je suis prête à souffrir, je suis prête à trembler
And for this sad boy I'm ready to suffer, I'm ready to tremble
Il est comme une promesse, il est comme un vacarme, il est mon naufragé
He's like a promise, he's like a din, he's my castaway
Il est ma seule tendresse, mon amour, mon alarme, mon enfant, mon péché
It is my only tenderness, my love, my alarm, my child, my sin
Hmm, hmm, hmm-hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm-hmm
Hmm, hmm-hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm-hmm, hmm
Outro
Il est comme une promesse, il est comme un vacarme, comme un naufragé
He's like a promise, he's like a din, like a castaway
Il est ma seule tendresse, mon amour, mon alarme, mon prince et mon péché
It is my only tenderness, my love, my alarm, my prince and my sin
