Lyrics and translation Kevin Coyne - Big White Bird
Coyne
Coyne
We
are
all
on
a
boat
Nous
sommes
tous
sur
un
bateau
And
the
boat
it
floats
Et
le
bateau
flotte
Across
our
dreams
that
we're
learning
À
travers
nos
rêves
que
nous
apprenons
Though
we
fought
and
we
sought
Bien
que
nous
ayons
combattu
et
cherché
But
we
never
truly
thought
Mais
nous
n'avons
jamais
vraiment
pensé
Of
all
our
dreams
that
have
been
burning
À
tous
nos
rêves
qui
brûlaient
We
sleep
then
we
wake
Nous
dormons
puis
nous
nous
réveillons
I
look
at
you,
you
turn
away
Je
te
regarde,
tu
te
détournes
With
a
face
so
black
and
full
of
yearning
Avec
un
visage
si
noir
et
plein
d'aspiration
So
don't
you
trap
my
golden
wings
Alors
ne
piège
pas
mes
ailes
dorées
Cause
my
wings
are
golden
things
Parce
que
mes
ailes
sont
des
choses
dorées
Made
to
fly,
made
to
cry
Faites
pour
voler,
faites
pour
pleurer
And
made
to
die
for
you
Et
faites
pour
mourir
pour
toi
You've
got
to
live,
live
your
life
Tu
dois
vivre,
vivre
ta
vie
Don't
take
out
pistols
and
knives
Ne
sors
pas
les
pistolets
et
les
couteaux
Just
live,
live
your
life
Vivre
juste,
vivre
ta
vie
And
you'll
be
learning
Et
tu
apprendras
You've
got
to
live,
live
your
life
Tu
dois
vivre,
vivre
ta
vie
Don't
take
out
pistols
and
knives
Ne
sors
pas
les
pistolets
et
les
couteaux
Just
live,
live
your
life
Vivre
juste,
vivre
ta
vie
And
you'll
be
learning,
learning,
learning,
learning,
learning
Et
tu
apprendras,
apprendras,
apprendras,
apprendras,
apprendras
