Translation of the song lyrics C'était déjà toi - Laurent Voulzy

C'était déjà toi (original)

Et ce grand vide là dans mon cœur…
Et ce désir infini d'âme sœur…
Quand je faisais la tête ailleurs, Danser des polissonnes
Sur Avalon
A c'était déjà toi, déjà toi
Car le rêve que je rêvais…
Et cette image que j’imaginais…
I was living in another space
And my tears every night… sad and alone
It was already you
Déjà toi
Il y a longtemps, longtemps que je t’aime
In the night I dream you whisper my name
Où que j’aille, où que j’aille, je parle de toi
And your silent is here in my heart
We’re so close and so far apart
Ce rêve je ne peux m’en lasser
Tu viendrais m’enlacer…
Sur Avalon
Ce sera déjà toi
Already you
Il y a longtemps longtemps que je t’aime
In the night, I dream you whisper my name
Où que j’aille, où que j’aille, je parle de toi
Où es tu?
Where are you?
M’entends tu?
Who are you?
Mon amour
My love
Où que j’aille, où que j’aille, je parle de toi

(translation)

And that great emptiness there in my heart...
And this endless desire for a soul mate...
When I was sulking somewhere else, dancing naughty girls
About Avalon
A it was already you, already you
Because the dream that I dreamed...
And this image that I imagined...
I was living in another space
And my tears every night… sad and alone
It was already you
Already you
I've loved you for a long, long time
In the night I dream you whisper my name
Wherever I go, wherever I go, I'm talking about you
And your silent is here in my heart
We're so close and so far apart
This dream I can't get enough of
You would come hug me...
About Avalon
It will already be you
Already you
I've loved you for a long time
In the night, I dream you whisper my name
Wherever I go, wherever I go, I'm talking about you
Where are you?
Where are you?
Can you hear me?
Who are you?
My love
Mon Amour
Wherever I go, wherever I go, I'm talking about you
