Home / Lyrics Translation / ZAZ / Demain C'est Toi

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Demain C'est Toi by ZAZ from French to English.

I'm drawing paths that wait only for you

To you, child on the way, I walk ahead of your steps

I whisper your name in the breath of my voice

I'll offer you the world, you I don't yet know

I open my heart wide to you like we open our hands

I wish you joys as big as mine

Tomorrow is you

I'm learning the alphabets of each of your gestures

I sing you my dreams of open space and the Far West

I want for you love, rare and precious

All the beauty of the world within reach of your eyes

With fists heated white-hot, I forge for tomorrow

Your joys that I wish as big as mine

Tomorrow is you

I give you the keys that open every chest

I pulverize the walls of the prisons they're giving you

I run to infinity so I won't leave you

Everything I didn't say's 'cause you know it

It's 'cause you know it

To you, child who's coming like early morning

I wish you joys as big as mine

Tomorrow is you

SONG MEANING

Demain C'est Toi feels like a radiant love letter sent through time to an unborn child. With every line, ZAZ paints a hopeful roadmap where she clears paths, melts prison-like walls, and gifts all the beauty of the world to the little soul she hasn’t met yet. The song overflows with parental tenderness: she whispers the child’s name to the wind, forges a brighter tomorrow with white-hot fists, and vows that happiness will be as boundless as her own.

Beneath the gentle folk melody lies a powerful message: the future belongs to the next generation, so we must nurture it with love, freedom, and limitless possibilities. By addressing “the child who comes, like a small dawn,” ZAZ reminds us that every act of care today lights the way for tomorrow. Listening to this track feels like being wrapped in a warm promise that the world can indeed be kinder, brighter, and tailor-made for new dreams.
