A Perpétuité Lyrics in English Pierre Bachelet
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song A Perpétuité by Pierre Bachelet from French to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Je disais qu'elle n'était pas née
I said she wasn't born
Celle qui pourrait m'enchainer
The one who could chain me
Au fond de sa cage dorée
At the bottom of his golden cage
C'est moi qui ai tendu les mains
It was I who stretched out my hands
Quand les menottes du destin
When the handcuffs of destiny
Ont fait de moi son prisonnier
Made me his prisoner
Et je l'aime à perpétuité
And I love him forever
C'est elle qui m'a condamné
It was she who condemned me
Mais on ne choisit pas
But we don't choose
Je suis un fou un aliéné
I'm crazy and insane
On devrait me faire enfermer
I should be locked up
Mais on ne choisit pas
But we don't choose
On ne choisit pas
We don't choose
Mais qui pourra donc secourir
But who can help
Celui qui ne veut pas guérir
The one who doesn't want to heal
Je suis malade d'etre amoureux
I'm sick of being in love
Et pour un seul de ses sourires
And for just one of his smiles
Je suis pret à vivre le pire
I'm ready to experience the worst
Mais c'est le meilleur que je veux
But it's the best I want
Et je l'aime à perpétuité
And I love him forever
C'est elle qui m'a condamné
It was she who condemned me
Mais on ne choisit pas
But we don't choose
Je suis un fou un aliéné
I'm crazy and insane
On devrait me faire enfermer
I should be locked up
Mais on ne choisit pas
But we don't choose
On ne choisit pas
We don't choose
J'ai beau ne pas croire aux sorcières
Although I don't believe in witches
On m'avait dit que sur la Terre
I was told that on Earth
L'amour blanchirait mes cheveux
Love would turn my hair white
Lorsque je regarde en arrière
When I look back
Le hasard me brise les nerfs
Chance breaks my nerves
Et ce soir je passe aux aveux
And this evening I confess
Oui je l'aime à perpétuité
Yes I love him forever
C'est elle qui m'a condamné
It was she who condemned me
Mais on ne choisit pas
But we don't choose
Je suis un fou un aliéné
I'm crazy and insane
On devrait me faire enfermer
I should be locked up
Mais on ne choisit pas
But we don't choose
On ne choisit pas
We don't choose
