Lyrics and translation Daniel Lavoie - Que cherche-t-elle




Que cherche-t-elle
What is she looking for
Le coeur léger dans la nuit bohème
My heart feels light in the Bohemian night
Que cherche-t-elle
What is she looking for
s′en va-t-elle?
Where has she gone?
Le parfum oublié d'un premier je t′aime
The forgotten scent of our first words of love
Que cherche-t-elle loin de moi?
What is she looking for away from me?
Quelques mots farouches, un sourire de porcelaine
A few harsh words, a porcelain smile
Que cherche-t-elle?
What is she looking for?
s'en va-t-elle?
Where has she gone?
Est-ce de l'ennui, est-ce de la peine?
Is it boredom, is it pain?
Que cherche-t-elle loin de moi?
What is she looking for away from me?
Longtemps à laisser tourner la Terre
For a while we let the Earth rotate
Sans dire un mot
Without uttering a word
Comptant sonner l′heure
Hoping to hear the clock strike
Doucement à rêver sans oser faire
Softly dreaming without daring to take action
Que cherche-t-elle?
What is she looking for?
s′en va-t-elle?
Where has she gone?
Elle a beau me jurer que rien n'a changé
She may swear to me that nothing has changed
Que cherche-t-elle
What is she looking for
s′en va-t-elle?
Where has she gone?
Dans le trouble de ses yeux je redeviens étranger
In the confusion of her eyes, I become a stranger again
Que cherche-t-elle loin de moi?
What is she looking for away from me?
Longtemps à laisser tourner la Terre
For a while we let the Earth rotate
Sans dire un mot
Without uttering a word
Comptant sonner l'heure
Hoping to hear the clock strike
Doucement à rêver sans oser faire
Softly dreaming without daring to take action
Que cherche-t-elle?
What is she looking for?
s′en va-t-elle?
Where has she gone?
Elle a beau me jurer que rien n'a changé
She may swear to me that nothing has changed
Que cherche-t-elle?
What is she looking for?
s′en va-t-elle?
Where has she gone?
Dans le trouble de ses yeux je redeviens l'étranger
In the confusion of her eyes, I become a stranger again
Que cherche-t-elle loin de moi?
What is she looking for away from me?
