Lyrics and translation Richard Thompson - She Said It Was Destiny
She Said It Was Destiny
Elle a dit que c'était le destin
Is
this
the
togetherness
she
meant
- so
rosy
Est-ce
la
communion
que
tu
voulais
dire
- si
rose
I
thought
we'd
share
a
continent
- so
cosy
Je
pensais
que
nous
partagerions
un
continent
- si
douillet
I
thought
love's
passions
really
Je
pensais
que
les
passions
de
l'amour
seraient
vraiment
Would
be
more
touchy-feely
Plus
tactiles
She
said
it
was
Destiny
Tu
as
dit
que
c'était
le
destin
She
said
it
was
written
somewhere
Tu
as
dit
que
c'était
écrit
quelque
part
But
if
it
was
destiny
Mais
si
c'était
le
destin
Why
am
I
over
here
and
she's
over
there
Pourquoi
suis-je
ici
et
toi
là-bas
She
said
it
was
in
the
stars
Tu
as
dit
que
c'était
dans
les
étoiles
Something
that
just
had
to
be
Quelque
chose
qui
devait
arriver
But
Venus
aligned
with
Mars
Mais
Vénus
alignée
sur
Mars
Always
really
takes
it
out
of
me
Me
fait
toujours
vraiment
souffrir
O
I'm
not
proud
of
my
deceit
- you
know
that
Oh,
je
ne
suis
pas
fier
de
ma
tromperie
- tu
le
sais
To
come
so
near
and
then
retreat
- you
know
that
De
t'approcher
et
de
reculer
- tu
le
sais
One
beat
before
I
fell
Un
battement
avant
de
tomber
Somewhere
I
heard
a
bell
- ring,
ring
Quelque
part
j'ai
entendu
une
cloche
- tintinnabule
She
said
it
was
Destiny
Tu
as
dit
que
c'était
le
destin
She
said
it
was
written
somewhere
Tu
as
dit
que
c'était
écrit
quelque
part
But
if
it
was
destiny
Mais
si
c'était
le
destin
Why
am
I
over
here
and
she's
over
there
Pourquoi
suis-je
ici
et
toi
là-bas
There's
clouds
across
my
crystal
ball
- too
misty
Il
y
a
des
nuages
sur
ma
boule
de
cristal
- trop
brumeux
Was
I
too
quick
to
give
it
all
- when
she
kissed
me
Étais-je
trop
rapide
pour
tout
donner
- quand
tu
m'as
embrassé
She's
thrown
a
net
on
me
Tu
m'as
jeté
un
filet
Razor
wire
geometry
Géométrie
de
fil
barbelé
She
said
it

Destiny
Tu
as
dit
que
c'était
le
destin
She
said
it
was

Tu
as
dit
que
c'était

quelque
part
But
if

over
here
and
she's
over
there
Pourquoi
suis-je
ici
et
