Elle attend que le monde change
She waits for the world to change
Elle attend que changent les temps
She waits for the times to change
Elle attend que ce monde étrange
She waits for this strange world
Se perde et que tournent les vents
Get lost and the winds turn
Inexorablement, elle attend
Inexorably, she waits
Elle attend que l'horizon bouge
She waits for the horizon to move
Elle attend que changent les gens
She waits for people to change
Elle attend comme un coup de foudre
She waits like love at first sight
Le règne des anges innocents
The reign of innocent angels
Inexorablement, elle attend
Inexorably, she waits
Elle attend que la grande roue tourne
She waits for the Ferris wheel to turn
Tournent les aiguilles du temps
The hands of time are turning
Elle attend sans se résoudre
She waits without resolving
En frottant ses couverts en argent
Rubbing his silver cutlery
Inexorablement, elle attend
Inexorably, she waits
Et elle regarde des images
And she looks at pictures
Et lit des histoires d'avant
And read stories from before
D'honneur et de grands équipages
Of honor and great crews
Où les bons sont habillés de blanc
Where the good ones are dressed in white
Et elle s'invente des voyages
And she invents trips
Entre un fauteuil et un divan
Between an armchair and a couch
D'eau de rose et de passion sage
Of rose water and wise passion
Aussi purs que ces vieux romans
As pure as those old novels
Aussi grands que celui qu'elle attend
As big as the one she expects
Elle attend que le monde change
She waits for the world to change
Elle attend que changent les temps
She waits for the times to change
Elle attend que ce monde étrange
She waits for this strange world
Se perde et que tournent les vents
Get lost and the winds turn
Inexorablement, elle attend
Inexorably, she waits
