Le Reste Du Temps Lyrics in English Francis Cabrel
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Reste Du Temps by Francis Cabrel from French to English.
Et si on dormait sous les arbres
What if we slept under the trees
Le reste du temps
The rest of the time
Deux amants posés sur des hardes
Two lovers sprawled on ragged sheets
Deux débutants
Just beginners
En dessous des cieux qui lézardent
Beneath skies that crack open
Juste en faire autant
Just trying to do the same
Tellement de choses ont changé
So much has changed
Mieux que tous les palais de marbre
Better than any marble palace
L'or des sultans
Or the sultans' gold
Quelques branchages qui nous gardent
A few branches sheltering us
Des mauvais vents
From bad winds
Je ferai tout ce qu'il te tarde
I'll do everything you crave
L'homme ou l'enfant
Man or kid
Tellement de choses ont changé
So much has changed
Dans nos jardins dérangés
In our tangled gardens
Tellement de fleurs allongées, tellement
So many flowers lying down, so many
Sous la lumière orangée
Under the orangey light
Longtemps nos corps mélangés, longtemps
Our bodies tangled for ages, for ages
Rien qui mérite qu'on en parle
Nothing worth talking about
Rien d'inquiétant
Nothing worrying
Un miroir pour que tu te fardes
A mirror so you can put on makeup
Je t'aime pourtant
But I still love you
Plus personne ne nous regarde
Nobody's watching us anymore
Ni ne nous entend
Or listening to us
Dans nos jardins dérangés
In our tangled gardens
Tellement de fleurs allongées, tellement
So many flowers lying down, so many
Sous la lumière orangée
Under the orangey light
Longtemps nos corps mélangés, longtemps
Our bodies tangled for ages, for ages
Pendant que le monde bavarde
While the world chatters on
À rien d'important
About nothing important
On pourrait dormir sous les arbres
We could sleep under the trees
Le reste du temps
The rest of the time
