Lyrics and translation Ben Folds Five - Brick (Radio Mix)




Brick (Radio Mix)
Brick (Radio Mix)
6 a.m.
6 h
Day after Christmas
Le lendemain de Noël
I throw some clothes on in the dark
Je m'habille dans le noir
The smell of cold
Il fait froid
Car seat is freezing
Le siège de voiture est gelé
The world is sleeping
Le monde dort
I am numb
Je suis engourdi
Up the stairs to her apartment
J'monte les escaliers jusqu'à son appart
She is balled up on the couch
Elle est en boule sur le canapé
Her mom and dad went down to Charlotte
Ses parents sont à Charlotte
They're not home to find us out
Ils ne sont pas là pour nous trouver
And we drive
Et on roule
Now that I have found someone
Maintenant que j'ai trouvé quelqu'un
I'm feeling more alone
Je me sens plus seul
Than I ever have before
Que jamais auparavant
She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
Elle est une brique et je me noie lentement
Off the coast and I'm headed to nowhere
Au large de la côte et j'me dirige vers nulle part
She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
Elle est une brique et je me noie lentement
They call her name at seven-thirty
Ils l'appellent à 7 h 30
I pace around the parking lot
Je fais les cent pas sur le parking
And I walk down to buy her flowers
Et je descends lui acheter des fleurs
And sell some gifts that I got
Et vendre des cadeaux que j'ai eus
Can't you see
Tu ne vois pas
It's not me you're dying for
Ce n'est pas pour moi que tu meurs
Now she's feeling more alone
Maintenant, elle se sent plus seule
Then she ever has before
Qu'elle ne l'a jamais été auparavant
She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
Elle est une brique et je me noie lentement
Off the coast and I'm headed to nowhere
Au large de la côte et j'me dirige vers nulle part
She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
Elle est une brique et je me noie lentement
As weeks went by
Au fil des semaines
It showed that she was not fine
Ça a montré qu'elle n'allait pas bien
They told me: "Son it's time to tell the truth," and
Ils m'ont dit : "Mon fils, c'est le moment de dire la vérité", et
She broke down and I broke down
Elle s'est effondrée et je me suis effondré
'Cause I was tired of lying
Parce que j'étais fatigué de mentir
Driving back to her apartment
En retournant à son appart
For the moment we're alone
Pour le moment où on est seuls
Yeah she's alone
Ouais, elle est seule
And I'm alone
Et je suis seul
Now I know it
Maintenant, je le sais
She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
Elle est une brique et je me noie lentement
Off the coast and I'm headed to nowhere
Au large de la côte et j'me dirige vers nulle part
She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
Elle est une brique et je me noie lentement
