Les oiseaux ce soir s'en vont vers le sud
Birds tonight go south
J't'ai rien d'mandé, tu m'as aimé
I have nothing to ask you, you loved me
Tu te moques bien de ma solitude
You don't care about my loneliness
J't'ai rien d'mandé, tu m'as quitté
I have nothing to ask you, you left me
Je n'ai jamais su ce qu'il fallait te dire
I never knew what to tell you
On ne sait pas comment parler au vent
We don't know how to talk to the wind
Va t'en, ma vie commence
Go away, my life begins
Va t'en, quelle importance
Go away, what does it matter
Tu m'as bien oublié, pourquoi pas moi?
You've forgotten me, why not me?
Demain je me délivre
Tomorrow I free myself
Demain je vais revivre
Tomorrow I'm going to relive
J'existerai après comme avant toi
I'll exist after you like before you
À paris la nuit quelques fois c'est beau
Betting at night sometimes it's beautiful
Je n't'ai rien dit, tu m'as souri
I didn't tell you, you smiled at me
Y'avait un pianiste qui jouait faux
There was a pianist who played fake
Je n't'ai rien dit, tu m'as suivi
I didn't tell you, you followed me
Il aurait suffit d'un mot pour te garder
It would have only been a word to keep you
Si parfois je l'ai su, je l'ai perdu
If sometimes I knew, I lost it
Va t'en, ma vie commence
Go away, my life begins
Va t'en, quelle importance
Go away, what does it matter
Tu m'as bien oublié, pourquoi pas moi?
You've forgotten me, why not me?
Demain je me délivre
Tomorrow I free myself
Demain je vais revivre
Tomorrow I'm going to relive
J'existerai après comme avant toi
I'll exist after you like before you
On oublie n'importe quoi
We forget anything
Et pourquoi pas toi?
And why not you?
Cette année l'hiver ne sera pas long
This year the winter will not be long
J't'ai rien donné et c'est fini
I gave you nothing and it's over
J'aimais bien dormir dans tes cheveux blonds
I liked sleeping in your blond hair
J't'ai rien donné, tu m'as tout pris
I gave you nothing, you took everything from me
J'ai appris depuis à dire des histoires
I've since learned to tell stories
À parler aux enfants et c'est trop tard
Talking to the kids and it's too late
Va t'en, ma vie commence
Go away, my life begins
Va t'en, quelle importance
Go away, what does it matter
Tu m'as bien oublié, pourquoi pas moi?
You've forgotten me, why not me?
Demain je me délivre
Tomorrow I free myself
Demain je vais revivre
Tomorrow I'm going to relive
J'existerai après comme avant toi
I'll exist after you like before you
