Tout Là-haut Lyrics in English ZAZ

Home / Lyrics Translation / ZAZ / Tout Là-haut

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tout Là-haut by ZAZ from French to English.

If we were to go up there

If we were to rise above

You would see that the world is beautiful

Beautiful

If we were to seek out the echo

That heals sorrows and fears

Maybe you will find the words

The words

Beyond the deceitful appearances

Behind our masks of circumstance

Under our masks sewn with hope

Lie the cracks of childhood

Of childhood

Quietly, we're not too bad up there

We taste the stars up there

We forget our certainties

We cherish solitude

To make a stop up there

To nurture the calm up there

We no longer play with artifice

We know why we exist

Finally

Come on, come

If we were to go up there

To better soak in the colors

Would we be able to silence our ego

To untangle the true from the false

To search within ourselves for the best

Free like the heart of birds

Up there

Beyond false appearances

In our adolescent stones

Under our masks tinted with carelessness

Lie the wounds of childhood

Of childhood

Quietly, we're not too bad up there

We taste the stars up there

We forget our certainties

We cherish solitude

To make a stop up there

To nurture the calm up there

We no longer play with artifice

We know why we resist

Finally

Come on, come on, come on

Come on

If we were to go up there

To better adorn ourselves with softness

You would see everything with a new eye

If we were to take out our paintbrushes

To draw with all our heart

The outlines of our ideals

Up there

Beyond foolish appearances

In the wake of existence

Under our masks sewn with hope

Carry the burns of childhood

Of childhood

Quietly, we're not too bad up there

We taste the stars up there

We forget our certainties

We cherish solitude

To make a stop up there

To nurture the calm up there

We no longer play with artifice

We know why we exist

Free, we're not too bad up there

We taste the stars up there

We forget our certainties

We cherish solitude

To make a stop up there

To drop the veil up there

We no longer play with artifice

We know why we resist

Finally

Come on

SONG MEANING

In "Tout Là-haut" ZAZ invites us to climb "way up there" above the bustle of everyday life. From this lofty viewpoint the world suddenly looks brighter, colors feel richer and we can finally taste the stars. The song paints that altitude as a place of quiet where ego softens, childhood scars start to heal and we trade our daily masks for honest, wide-eyed wonder.

Floating in this calm sky we are urged to pause, listen to our own echo and rediscover the words that matter. Solitude becomes sweet, certainties dissolve and we remember why we exist — or even why we resist. With each gentle refrain of « Allez, viens » ZAZ beckons us to join her in sketching fresh ideals, letting old fears fall away and feeling as free as birds at heart. The message is both simple and uplifting: gain some height, nurture your inner peace and watch how beautifully life unfolds.
