Je me réveille d'une nuit sans fin
I wake up from an endless night
Celle qui présage mes jours au loin
The one who portends my days in the distance
Je répète les mouvements
I repeat the movements
D'une vie placée
Of a life placed
Au rythme
To the rhythm
De c'que l'on est
Of what we are
J'arrive comme j'ai quitté
I arrive as I left
Je danse sans savoir avancer
I dance without knowing how to move forward
Je prononce toujours
I always pronounce
Les mêmes idées
The same ideas
Par crainte d'oublier
For fear of forgetting
Mais quand je tire
But when I shoot
Au sort
To fate
Les chemins traversés
The paths crossed
Je pense à toi
I think of you
Et à c'qu'on s'est donné
And what we gave ourselves
Qu'on regarde les moments
Let us look at the moments
Défier le temps
Defy time
Et que nos peaux brillent
And let our skins shine
Au fil des journées
As the days go by
Si on s'arrête
If we stop
C'est pour ne plus penser
It's to stop thinking
C'est pour attraper ces instants volés
It's to catch these stolen moments
Je me vois encore dépasser
I still see myself surpassing
Les fleurs qui parsèment les allées
The flowers that dot the paths
D'une vie connue
Of a known life
Le temps d'un seul été
The time of a single summer
D'une vie imaginée
Of an imagined life
Mais quand je tire
But when I shoot
Au sort
To fate
Les chemins traversés
The paths crossed
Je pense à toi
I think of you
Et à c'qu'on s'est donné
And what we gave ourselves
Qu'on regarde les moments
Let us look at the moments
Défier le temps
Defy time
Et que nos peaux brillent
And let our skins shine
Au fil des journées
As the days go by
Si on s'arrête
If we stop
C'est pour ne plus penser
It's to stop thinking
C'est pour attraper ces instants volés
It's to catch these stolen moments
J'ai peur de perdre
I'm afraid of losing
J'ai peur d'attendre
I'm afraid to wait
Trop longtemps
Too long
Je cours contre le temps
I'm racing against time
J'ai peur de perdre
I'm afraid of losing
J'ai peur d'attendre
I'm afraid to wait
Trop longtemps
Too long
Je cours contre le temps
I'm racing against time
Qu'on regarde les moments
Let us look at the moments
Défier le temps
Defy time
Et que nos peaux brillent au fil des journées
And may our skin shine as the days go by
