Tous les au-revoir se ressemblent [English translation]

All farewells seem alike

but not all goodbyes do.

If it's for us to remain together

and close our eyes,

is it easier to have the proof we love each other

or rather the courage to let each other go?

A plane takes off,

another one is desired.

Those who remain on the ground

don't ever go that far!

A boat leaves,

another one returns.

Whatever the place may be,

one never sees, never sees too far ahead.

All farewells remain weak

but not all goodbyes do.

The confessions we pull out of each other,

who suffers them for both of us?

Should we do and say nothing to remain together

or rather let the worse come?

A plane takes off,

another one is desired.

Those who remain on the ground

don't ever go that far!

A boat leaves,

another one returns.

Whatever the place may be,

one never sees, never sees too far ahead.

A boat leaves,

another one returns.

Whatever the place may be,

one never sees too far ahead.

A plane takes off,

another one is desired.

Those who remain on the ground

don't ever go, ever that far.

(A plane takes off...)

A plane takes off!

(A plane takes off...)

Another one returns!

(A plane takes off...)

A plane takes off!

(A plane takes off...)
