Y a quelqu'un d'autre dans ta glace
There's someone else in your ice
Entre les potions et les crèmes
Between potions and creams
Tous les petits pots qui s'entassent
All the little pots that pile up
Tu vois le temps est passé quand même
You see time is up anyway
On croyait faire du sur-place
We thought we were on the spot
À ça, on s'en est donné de la peine
That's what we've been bothered to do
On se dépense, on se démène
We're spending, we're struggling
Et même sous les pas d'une reine, la grande aiguille se déplace
And even under the footsteps of a queen, the great needle moves
On va viser l'éternité
We're going to aim for eternity
On est tellement bien ici
We're so good here
On va tout faire comme si
We're going to do everything as if
On était partis pour rester
We were gone to stay
Entre les chaos du parcours
Between the chaos of the course
Les demi-tours, les impasses
The U-turns, the dead ends
Les grandes nuits, les petits jours
The big nights, the little days
Et tout c'qui raye la surface
And it's all that scratches the surface
On tombe chacun à son tour
We're all falling in turn
Entre les griffes du rapace
Between the claws of the raptor
Le seul remède, c'est l'amour
The only cure is love
D'ailleurs, c'est pour ça qu'on court d'un bout à l'autre de l'espace
In fact, that's why we run from one end of space to the other
On va viser l'éternité
We're going to aim for eternity
On est tellement bien ici
We're so good here
On va tout faire comme si
We're going to do everything as if
On était partis pour rester
We were gone to stay
Rester, rester, rester
Stay, stay, stay
On n'est même pas pressés
We're not even in a hurry
Rester, rester, rester
Stay, stay, stay
Dans un coin de mes pensées
In a corner of my thoughts
Une vie à t'enlacer
A life to embrace you
Mille fois recommencer
A thousand times start again
Et c'est pour ça qu'on va rester, rester, rester
And that's why we're going to stay, stay, stay
J'aurais aimé te l'apporter
I would have liked to have brought it to you
Sur un beau coussin de dentelle
On a beautiful lace cushion
La niche où se cachent les clés
The niche where the keys hide
De la mécanique éternelle
Eternal mechanics
Et l'horloge est hors de porté
And the clock is out of focus
Et ce n'est pas là l'essentiel
And that's not the point
Elle peut continuer de tourner
It can continue to run
Elle peut tout emporter, je te trouve chaque jour plus belle
She can take anything with me, I think you're more beautiful every day
On va viser l'éternité
We're going to aim for eternity
On est tellement bien ici
We're so good here
On va tout faire comme si
We're going to do everything as if
On était partis pour rester
We were gone to stay
Rester, rester, rester
Stay, stay, stay
On est loin d'être lassés
We are far from tired
Rester, rester, rester
Stay, stay, stay
Dans un coin de mes pensées
In a corner of my thoughts
Une vie à t'enlacer
A life to embrace you
Mille fois recommencer
A thousand times start again
On va rester, rester, rester
We're going to stay, we're going to stay, we're going to stay
On n'est même pas pressés
We're not even in a hurry
Rester, rester, rester
Stay, stay, stay
Pour tous ceux qu'on a blessé
For all those who have been injured
Qu'on aurait dû embrasser
That we should have kissed
Autant tout recommencer
You might as well start all over again
Outro
On va viser l'éternité
We're going to aim for eternity
On est tellement bien ici
We're so good here
On va tout faire comme si
We're going to do everything as if
On était partis pour rester
We were gone to stay
