lyrics

Chanson de malheur

Comme un songe éveillé,
Dans une rue de Montmartre...

J'ai toujours rêvé, tu sais,
De te rencontrer en vrai, baiser sucré,
De marcher à tes côtés, léger,
Peut-être même de t'embrasser, baiser salé,

Tu étais mon idole de jeunesse, ma faiblesse,
Cet être inaccessible, cet artiste invincible,
Tu étais, plus que tout, une partie de mon âme,
Qui réchauffait mon cœur quand l'amour faisait mal...

Je n'ai pas voulu briser le rêve de tes 20 ans,
Que tu t'attaches à moi et que tu comprennes que je n'étais qu'un rôle...
La chanson de ma vie elle n'est pas toujours drôle,
C'est une chanson sans fleurs,
Et maintenant te reste mon malheur.

---Solo---

Je n'ai pas voulu briser le rêve de tes 20 ans,
Que tu t'attaches à moi et que tu comprennes que je n'étais qu'un rôle...
La chanson de ma vie elle n'est pas toujours drôle,
C'est une chanson sans fleurs,
Et maintenant te reste mon malheur.

J'avais toujours rêvé, tu sais,
De te rencontrer en vrai,
Maintenant c'est fait !
Le monde réel a tué en un instant,
Mon doux rêve d'enfant,
Oh j'ai froid dedans !

J'ai toujours rêvé, tu sais,
De te rencontrer en vrai, baiser sucré,
De marcher à tes côtés, léger,
Peut-être même de t'embrasser, baiser salé,

Tu étais mon idole de jeunesse, ma faiblesse,
Cet être inaccessible, cet artiste invincible...



English translation:

Song of Misfortune

Like a waking dream,
In a street in Montmartre…

I have always dreamed, you know,
To meet you in real, sweet kiss,
To walk next to you, lightly,
Maybe even to kiss you, salty kiss,

You were my youth idol, my weakness,
This unreachable being, this unbeatable artist,
You were, more than anything else, a part of my soul,
Who warmed up my heart when love was painful…

I didn't want to break the dream of your twenty years,
That you grow attached to me and that you realize that I was nothing but a role...
The song of my life, it isn't always funny,
It's a song without flowers,
And now my misfortune is all that you have left.

---Solo---

I didn't want to break the dream of your twenty years,
That you grow attached to me and that you realize that I was nothing but a role...
The song of my life, it isn't always funny,
It's a song without flowers,
And now my misfortune is all that you have left.

I had always dreamed, you know,
To meet you in real,
Now it's done!
The real world has killed only a moment,
My sweet childhood dream,
Oh, I feel cold inside!

I have always dreamed, you know,
To meet you in real, sweet kiss,
To walk next to you, lightly,
Maybe even to kiss you, salty kiss,

You were my youth idol, my weakness,
This unreachable being, this unbeatable artist…
