Le Doigt Sur Ton Étoile Lyrics in English by Indochine

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Doigt Sur Ton Étoile by Indochine from French to English.
Je vis au milieu des nuages
I live among the clouds
J'attends mon atterrissage
I'm waiting for my landing
Mon arrivée est prévue
My arrival is scheduled
Juste dans les temps
Just in time
Je marcherais nu sur la rue
I'd walk naked in the street
Après tout ce que j'y aurais vu
After all I would've seen there
J'aurais dû sauver la terre
I should've saved the Earth
Mais je ne vais pas le faire
But I'm not going to do it
Personne ne sait qui je suis en vrai
Nobody knows who I really am
Personne ne sait ce que je fais
Nobody knows what I do
Accroché à ton étoile
Clinging to your star
Personne ne sait
Nobody knows
Tutu tutu
Tutu tutu
Tutu tutu
Tutu tutu
J'aime bien regarder ton visage
I really like looking at your face
Les yeux tournés vers les nuages
Eyes turned towards the clouds
On aime tout ce qui est sale
We like everything that's dirty
Le doigt sur ton étoile
A finger on your star
Comme jamais personne n'a fait ce qu'on voulait
As nobody ever did what we wanted
Personne n'a fait ce qu'on aimait
Nobody did what we loved
On fera tout ce qu'on voudra
We'll do everything we want
Le doigt sur ton étoile
A finger on your star
Tutu tutu
Tutu tutu
Tutu tutu
Tutu tutu
Si tu pouvais savoir
If only you knew
Quand je pense à toi
When I think of you
Tout ce que je fais
Everything I do
Rien qu'en pensant à toi
Just by thinking of you
Si tu pouvais savoir
If only you knew
Quand je pense à toi
When I think of you
Tout ce que je me fais
Everything I do to myself
Rien qu'en pensant à toi
Just by thinking of you

atterrissage — landing

Atterrissage means "landing" and is typically used for planes or spacecraft. It's a more specific and less common word than simply "arrival."

In the song, the narrator sings, "J'attends mon atterrissage" (I'm waiting for my landing), creating a unique metaphor for a significant moment or transition in life. This imagery of a personal "landing" makes the word intriguing and memorable, inviting listeners to ponder its deeper meaning within the song's context.
