Ma vie en l'air [English translation]

Everything promised to be so different

Everything looked a bit bigger to us

Whe were supposed to wake up

on the same pillow,

that should never have gotten old.

Now when boredom comes,

its whiteness settles down

You fall from your pedestal

and our fondling and our pretty habits

are losing height fast.

Shall you follow me,

I'll run from you.

Shall you run from me,

I'll follow you.

That's my life,

and I spint it to the ground

while I still have time

Still have time

While I still have time

to change.

That's it, I'm flying away.

Shall you follow me,

I'll run from you.

Shall you run from me,

I'll follow you.

That's my life,

and I want it to keep flying.

Our love did not last the winter.

I dreamed so much of seeing you again

I had so many one night lovers

Who would have thought that living together

would make us old before time,

before them all?

Now one evening as I climbed the stairs

I saw Love on the landing,

and his smile, his old sweater, his habits

suddenly soared up again.

Shall you follow me,

I'll run from you.

Shall you run from me,

I'll follow you.

That's my life,

and I spint it to the ground

while I still have time

Still have time

While I still have time

to change.

That's it, I'm flying away.

Shall you follow me,

I'll run from you.

Shall you run from me,

I'll follow you.

That's my life,

and I want it to keep flying.

My love, will we last the winter?

Shall you follow me,

I'll run from you.

Shall you run from me,

I'll follow you.

That's my life,

and I want it to keep flying.

My love, will we last the winter?
