Suzanne Vega - In The Eye

Lyrics and translation Suzanne Vega - In The Eye

In The Eye

Dans l'œil

If you were to kill me now right here

Si tu devais me tuer maintenant, ici même,

I would still look you in the eye

Je te regarderais toujours dans les yeux,

And I would burn myself into your memory

Et je me graverais dans ta mémoire

As long as you were still alive

Tant que tu serais encore en vie.

I would live inside of you

Je vivrais en toi,

I′d make you wear me like a scar

Je te ferais me porter comme une cicatrice,

And I would burn myself into your memory

Et je me graverais dans ta mémoire

And run through everything you are

Et je parcourrais tout ce que tu es.

I would not run

Je ne fuirais pas,

I would not turn

Je ne me retournerais pas,

I would not hide

Je ne me cacherais pas.

I would not run

Je ne fuirais pas,

I would not turn

Je ne me retournerais pas,

I would not hide

Je ne me cacherais pas.

I would live inside of you

Je vivrais en toi,

I'd make you wear me like a scar

Je te ferais me porter comme une cicatrice,

And I would burn myself into your memory

Et je me graverais dans ta mémoire

And run through everything you are

Et je parcourrais tout ce que tu es.

I would not run

Je ne fuirais pas,

I would not turn

Je ne me retournerais pas,

I would not hide

Je ne me cacherais pas.

I would not run

Je ne fuirais pas,

I would not turn

Je ne me retournerais pas,

I would not hide

Je ne me cacherais pas.

In the eye

Dans l'œil.

If you were to kill me now right here

Si tu devais me tuer maintenant, ici même,

I would still look you in the eye

Je te regarderais toujours dans les yeux,

And I would burn myself into your memory

Et je me graverais dans ta mémoire

As long as you were still alive

Tant que tu serais encore en vie.

I would not run

Je ne fuirais pas,

I would not turn

Je ne me retournerais pas,

I would not hide

Je ne me cacherais pas.

I would not run

Je ne fuirais pas,

I would not turn

Je ne me retournerais pas,

I would not hide

Je ne me cacherais pas.

In the eye

Dans l'œil.

In the eye

Dans l'œil.

Look me in the eye

Regarde-moi dans les yeux.

In the eye

Dans l'œil.

In the eye

Dans l'œil.
