Elle a quitté la maison
She left home
Elle part avec un garçon
She leaves with a boy
Ses parents n'avaient pas compris
His parents didn't understand
Qu'à 16 ans, on s'éveille et change sa vie
That at 16, you wake up and change your life
Le sais-tu
Do you know
Mais elle leur a échappé
But she escaped them
Avant d'apprendre à voler
Before learning to fly
N'aimait-elle pas la maison
Didn't she love the house
N'avons nous pas été bons
Have we not been good?
Nous n'avions vécu que pour elle
We had only lived for her
Et son enfance était cernée de dentelles
And her childhood was surrounded by lace
Le sait-elle
Does she know
Nous lui avions tout donné
We gave him everything
On ne peut pas l'expliquer
We can't explain it
Elle voulait vivre sa vie
She wanted to live her life
Faire comme ses amies
Do like her friends
Elle allait goûter ses envies
She was going to taste her desires
Comprendre et voir le monde sans les interdits
Understand and see the world without prohibitions
De la nuit
Of the night
Vivre et partir avec lui
Live and go with him
Et se faire un peu jolie
And make yourself a little pretty
L'amour est un jeu cruel
Love is a cruel game
Et fragiles sont ses ailes
And fragile are its wings
Son bonheur est comme un nuage
Her happiness is like a cloud
Quand elle croit le saisir, c'est déjà l'orage
When she thinks she grabs it, it's already a storm
Le sais-tu
Do you know
Son rêve est anéanti
His dream is shattered
Tâché de gouttes de pluie
Stained with raindrops
Sylvie rentre à la maison
Sylvie comes home
Elle a perdu le garçon
She lost the boy
Son histoire quand même était belle
His story was still beautiful
Son bonheur et l'amour pour demain seront éternels
His happiness and love for tomorrow will be eternal
D'autres ont raté leur départ
Others missed their departure
Mais il n'est jamais trop tard
But it's never too late
