Lyrics and translation Laura Osnes - “He Was Tall”




“He Was Tall”
“Il était grand”
He was tall, very tall
Il était grand, très grand
And his eyes were clear and blue
Et ses yeux étaient clairs et bleus
He was slim, very slim
Il était mince, très mince
In his coat of snowy hue
Dans son manteau couleur neige
When he walked across the ballroom floor
Quand il traversait la salle de bal
He was like a thing divine
Il ressemblait à une chose divine
And all the ladies turned their heads
Et toutes les dames tournaient la tête
And naturally I turned mine.
Et naturellement, j'ai tourné la mienne.
The chandeliers were shooting stars;
Les lustres étaient des étoiles filantes;
The drums and horns and soft guitars
Les tambours, les cors et les guitares douces
Were sounding more like nightingales;
Sonnèrent comme des rossignols;
The window curtains blew like sails;
Les rideaux de fenêtres flottaient comme des voiles;
And I was floating just above the floor
Et je flottais juste au-dessus du sol
Feeling slightly taller than before
Me sentant légèrement plus grande qu'avant
He was tall, very tall
Il était grand, très grand
And his eyes were clear and blue...
Et ses yeux étaient clairs et bleus...
