Retour Au Quartier Lointain(original) |
| La rue monte en lacets |
| Chaque virage se mérite |
| Et tu te sens perdu |
| Comme tu reconnais tout |
| Tu ne sais que leur dire |
| Pas même «ça passe trop vite «» Nous ne t’en voulons pas «Dit la main sur ta joue: |
| Quartier lointain |
| En te levant ce jour |
| Tu ne soupçonnais pas |
| L’intention de tes pas |
| Et tu t’es réveillé |
| Dans ce lieu où le temps |
| Avait à te causer |
| D’une jeunesse distraite |
| Du sable plein les doigts |
| Oh mon amour perdu |
| Que reste-t‘il de quoi? |
| La rue monte en lacets |
| Concentré dans l’effort |
| Tu n’as hier pas vu |
| Tout ce qui s’y tramait |
| Ni entendu les voix |
| De ceux qui t’attendraient |
| Ceux qui te revoyant |
| Semblent t’attendre encore: |
| Quartier lointain |
| (translation) |
| The street winds up |
| Every bend is worth it |
| And you feel lost |
| How you recognize everything |
| You don't know what to tell them |
| Not even "it goes by too fast" "We don't blame you" Said the hand on your cheek: |
| Distant neighborhood |
| When you wake up this day |
| You didn't suspect |
| The intention of your steps |
| And you woke up |
| In this place where time |
| Had to talk to you |
| Of a distracted youth |
| Fingers full of sand |
| Oh my lost love |
| What's left of what? |
| The street winds up |
| Concentrated in the effort |
| You didn't see yesterday |
| Everything that was going on |
| Nor heard the voices |
| Of those who would wait for you |
| Those who see you again |
| Still seem to be waiting for you: |
| Distant neighborhood |
