Quai de gare, un soir de cafard de retour vers la grande école
Station platform, a cockroach night back to the big school
J'ai quatorze ans, elle presque autant, son petit nom c'est nicole
I'm fourteen years old, she almost as much, her little name is nicole
Elle s'en va, je reste là et je lui paye un bouquin
She goes away, I stay there and I buy her a book
Un petit message entre les pages qu'elle va lire dans le train
A small message between the pages she will read on the train
Si un beau jour je dis 'je t'aime'
If one day I say 'I love you'
Surtout ne t'en fais pas
Don't worry
Si un beau jour je dis 'je t'aime'
If one day I say 'I love you'
Ce sera sûrement à toi
It's surely going to be yours
Depuis ce temps je suis souvent tout au bord du grand amour
Since that time I am often on the verge of great love
Mais comme j'ai peur de replonger, mes promesses tournent court
But as I'm afraid to dive again, my promises run out
Pourtant j'y crois chaque fois à ce sacre bonheur
Yet I believe in this coronation every time
Et je me m'entends distinctement leur mentir de tout mon coeur
And I hear myself distinctly lying to them with all my heart
Si un beau jour je dis 'je t'aime'
If one day I say 'I love you'
Surtout ne t'en fais pas
Don't worry
Si un beau jour je dis 'je t'aime'
If one day I say 'I love you'
Ce sera sûrement à toi
It's surely going to be yours
Ça y est, cette fois je sais que tu seras la dernière
That's it, this time I know you'll be the last
T'as tout ce qu'il faut, même les défauts, pour me prendre, pour me plaire
You've got everything you need, even the flaws, to take me, to please me
Pourtant t'as pas confiance en moi et tu crois bêtement que je mens
Yet you don't trust me and you stupidly believe that I'm lying
Quand je t'écris ces mots gentils que j'écrivais jamais avant
When I write to you those kind words I never wrote before
Si un beau jour je dis 'je t'aime'
If one day I say 'I love you'
Surtout ne t'en fais pas
Don't worry
Si un beau jour je dis 'je t'aime'
If one day I say 'I love you'
Ce sera sûrement à toi
It's surely going to be yours
