FR:
Quand mes pensées vont parfois,
Vers des lieux distants

Là ou j’étais autrefois

Je vois palpitant


paraître un pays au-delà du grand océan

paraître des bribes de joie,

de tendresse
je ne pourrai oublier les couleurs,

le vent
les gens, la sérénité,

le
bonheur présent
là-bas
je pouvais ralentir le tempo le temps

je chantais à en ravir la paresse

comme autrefois,

comme autrefois
en douceur

rechercher la cadence
comme autrefois,

comme autrefois
lentement pour trouver résonance



si mon passé quelques fois m’est si apaisant

c’est qu’il recèle l’émoi d’un ailleurs distant


là-bas je savais que l’on peut sourire autrement


je chantais fou de joie, de tristesse



comme autrefois, comme autrefois

en douceur rechercher la cadence
comme autrefois,

comme autrefois
lentement pour trouver résonance

ENG:
When my thoughts go sometimes
To distant places
Where I once was
I see a land
a land beyond the great ocean
brief glimpses of joy, of tenderness
I can't forget the colors, the wind
the people, the serenity, the happiness of the moment
over there I could slow down the tempo of time
I would sing to the joy of idleness

as in days gone by, as in days gone by
gently in search of the cadence
as in days gone by, as in days gone by
slowly to find resonance


if my past is sometimes so soothing to me
it's because it conceals the stirrings of a distant elsewhere
there I knew that one could in a different way
i would sing crazy with joy, with sadness

as in days gone by, as in days gone by
gently in search of the cadence
as in days gone by, as in days gone by
slowly to find resonance

Yeah
You know what I’m saying
It feels a little different here today but
You know, uh
Come check the groove
Now baby love, come check the groove

But the minute you walked on by me

You really, really turned me on
