Il est venu le temps de l'amour automne,le temps de l'insouciance et des rires perdus,
il a soufflé le vent des soirs monotones et lents
l'amour automne, est venu doucement.
Il est si froid le temps de l'amour hiver,
quand plus rien ne se crée et que tout se perd
la neige a recouvert princesses et chevaliers blancs
l'amour hiver a glacé les amants
Comme il est loin le temps de l'amour printemps,
son parfum éphémère, ses manèges d'antan
il dure qu'un instant, et puis, il est derrière
l'amour printemps, c'est celui des enfants.
English translation :AUTUMN
LOVE

Came the time of autumn love,
The time of
nonchalance
and lost laughter,
The
wind
blew in the slow
monotonous evenings
Autumn love came slowly.
The time of winter love
is
so cold,
When nothing
grows
and all is lost
The snow covered princesses and white knights
Winter love
froze lovers

How far
away
is the time of spring love,
Its ephemeral
fragrance,
the fairground rides
of yesteryear
It lasts only a moment, and then, it is
passed
Spring love is the Love
of children.

Oh leave the curtains drawn
And don’t bother staying onLet me pretend that I’m not myself
For a little while, seeThen I’m back on my feetIn the same old skin I know so well
Oh leave me in my little tuneI promise I’ll be back soon
Oh it’s hard to get byWhen you’re afraid to crySo you close your lips and cast your eyes down
You’ve got so much to tell
And so much to yellSo why do you whisper still
Will you tell me if you get boredAnd you don’t feel like staying anymore
Oh and everytime you’re hereNo I don’t want you near,But I can’t take it when you’re gone
So leave me for a while
But leave me with a smileSo that I know you’ll be back for more
Oh please be patient with meThis is not how I wanted to be

Oh I’ll always be there
To show you that I careBut I’m just not very good with words
So I hope you’ll understand
That a squeeze of my hand
Means that I’m all yours
Oh please be patient with me
This is not how I wanted to be

And will you tell me if you get boredAnd you don’t feel like staying anymore

I’ve been down and under

to help me clear my headOne more night by my own side won’t get me out of bed‘cause I’ve been down and under so long
They told me just to wait it outthese blues will come and gotold me just to wait it outthese blues will come and gobut days keep getting colder and the sun don’t seem to show‘cause I’ve been down and under so long
I’ve been down and under
don’t know what’s going onI’ve been down and under

Les jambes des femmesSont des ciseauxElles tranchent la vieEn petits morceauxComme des becs d’oiseaux enivrésVolant au-dessus de la mer
Moi j’aime avoir les pieds sur terreRacines au sol et tête en l’airPour contempler le ciel d’azurEt le spectacle de ces fruits murs
Les mains des femmesDes papillonsElles parlent et jouentCaressent aussiElles sont des griffes de lionnes sauvagesTiennent la vie
Et les hommes aussi
Ma chère MadeleineN’est pas comme çaDe ces dix doigts
M’étreint le cœurSes belles gambettesSont toujours prêtes
Pour une ballade
A bicyclette

English translation :
Les Jambes des Femmes
Ladies’s legs
Are scissorsThey cut life upInto little piecesLike beaks of drunken birdsFlying over the sea

Myself, I like having my feet on the groundRooted to the soil and my head in the cloudsTo contemplate the azur skyAnd the spectacle of ripened fruits
Ladies’ handsAre butterfliesThey talk and playAnd caress
They are the claws of wild lionessesGripping lifeAnd, at the same time, men
My dear MadeleineIs that not howThese ten fingersTighten my heartHer beautiful legsAre always

readyFor a bicycle ride
