Lyrics and translation Paul Simon - Graceland - Live




Graceland - Live
Graceland - En direct
The Mississippi Delta
Le delta du Mississippi
Was shining like a National guitar
Brillant comme une guitare nationale
I am following the river, down the highway
Je suis la rivière, sur la route
Through the cradle of the Civil War
À travers le berceau de la guerre civile
I′m going to Graceland, Graceland
Je vais à Graceland, Graceland
Memphis, Tennessee
Memphis, Tennessee
I'm going to Graceland
Je vais à Graceland
Poorboys and pilgrims with families
Pauvres garçons et pèlerins avec des familles
And we are going to Graceland
Et nous allons à Graceland
And my traveling companion is nine years old
Et mon compagnon de voyage a neuf ans
He is the child of my first marriage
C'est l'enfant de mon premier mariage
But I′ve reason to believe
Mais j'ai des raisons de croire
We both will be received
Que nous serons tous les deux accueillis
In Graceland
À Graceland
She comes back to tell me she's gone
Elle revient pour me dire qu'elle est partie
As if I didn't know that
Comme si je ne le savais pas
As if I didn′t know my own bed
Comme si je ne connaissais pas mon propre lit
As if I′d never noticed
Comme si je n'avais jamais remarqué
The way she brushed her hair from her forehead
La façon dont elle se brossait les cheveux de son front
And she said losing love
Et elle a dit perdre l'amour
Is like a window in your heart
C'est comme une fenêtre dans votre cœur
Everybody sees you're blown apart
Tout le monde voit que vous êtes en morceaux
Everybody sees the wind blow
Tout le monde voit le vent souffler
I′m going to Graceland
Je vais à Graceland
Memphis, Tennessee
Memphis, Tennessee
I'm going to Graceland
Je vais à Graceland
Poorboys and pilgrims with families
Pauvres garçons et pèlerins avec des familles
And we are going to Graceland
Et nous allons à Graceland
And my traveling companions
Et mes compagnons de voyage
Are ghosts and empty sockets
Sont des fantômes et des orbites vides
I′m looking at ghosts and empties
Je regarde des fantômes et des vides
But I've reason to believe
Mais j'ai des raisons de croire
We all will be received
Que nous serons tous accueillis
In Graceland
À Graceland
There is a girl in New York City
Il y a une fille à New York
Who calls herself the human trampoline
Qui s'appelle le trampoline humain
And sometimes when I′m falling, flying
Et parfois quand je tombe, vole
Or tumbling in turmoil I say
Ou que je suis en pleine tourmente, je dis
Whoa, so this is what she means
Whoa, c'est ce qu'elle veut dire
She means we're bouncing into Graceland
Elle veut dire que nous rebondissons à Graceland
And I see losing love
Et je vois perdre l'amour
Is like a window into your heart
C'est comme une fenêtre dans votre cœur
And everybody sees you're blown apart
Et tout le monde voit que vous êtes en morceaux
Everybody feels the wind blow
Tout le monde sent le vent souffler
In Graceland, in Graceland
À Graceland, à Graceland
I′m going to Graceland
Je vais à Graceland
For reasons I cannot explain
Pour des raisons que je ne peux pas expliquer
There′s some part of me wants to see Graceland
Une partie de moi veut voir Graceland
And I may be obliged to defend
Et je pourrais être obligé de défendre
Every love, every ending
Chaque amour, chaque fin
Or maybe there's no obligations now
Ou peut-être qu'il n'y a plus d'obligations maintenant
Maybe I′ve a reason to believe
Peut-être que j'ai des raisons de croire
We all will be received
Que nous serons tous accueillis
In Graceland
À Graceland
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, in Graceland, Graceland, Graceland
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, à Graceland, Graceland, Graceland
I'm going to Graceland
Je vais à Graceland
