Lyrics and translation The Bangles - If She Knew What She Wants

If She Knew What She Wants

Oooooh
If she knew what she wants
(He'd be giving it to her)
If she knew what she needs
(He could give her that too)
If she knew what she wants
(But he can't see through her)
If she knew what she wants
He'd be giving it to her
Giving it to her
But she wants everything
(He can pretend to give her everything)
Or there's nothing she wants
(She don't want to sort it out)
He's crazy for this girl
(But she don't know what she's looking for)
If she knew what she wants
He'd be giving it to her
Giving it to her
I'd say her values are corrupted
But she's open to change
Then one day she's satisfied
And the next I'll find her crying
And it's nothing she can explain
If she knew what she wants
(He'd be giving it to her)
If she knew what she needs
(He could give her that too)
If she knew what she wants
(But he can't see through her)
If she knew what she wants
He'd be giving it to her
Giving it to her (giving it to her)
Some have a style
That they work hard to refine
So they walk a crooked line
But she won't understand
Why anyone would have to try
To walk a line when they could fly

No sense thinking I could rehabilitate her
When she's fine, fine, fine
She's got so many ideas traveling around in her head
She doesn't need nothing from mine
If she knew what she wants
(He'd be giving it to her)
If she knew what she needs
(He could give her that too)
If she knew what she wants
(But he can't see through her)
If she knew what she wants
He'd be giving it to her
Giving it to her
But she wants everything
(He can pretend to give her everything)
Or there's nothing she wants
(She don't want to sort it out)
He's crazy for this girl
(But she don't know what she's looking for)
If she knew what she wants
He'd be giving it to her
Giving it to her
(He'd be giving it to her)
(He could give her that too)
(But he can't see through her)
Ooooooh
Giving it to her
Giving it to her now

Si elle savait ce qu'elle veut

Ooooooh
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
(Je te le donnerais)
Si tu savais ce dont tu as besoin
(Je pourrais te le donner aussi)
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
(Mais je ne peux pas voir à travers toi)
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
Je te le donnerais
Je te le donnerais
Mais tu veux tout
(Je peux prétendre te tout donner)
Ou bien il n'y a rien que tu veuilles
(Tu ne veux pas le découvrir)
Je suis fou de toi
(Mais tu ne sais pas ce que tu cherches)
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
Je te le donnerais
Je te le donnerais
Je dirais que tes valeurs sont corrompues
Mais tu es ouverte au changement
Un jour, tu es satisfaite
Et le lendemain, je te trouve en larmes
Et c'est quelque chose que tu ne peux pas expliquer
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
(Je te le donnerais)
Si tu savais ce dont tu as besoin
(Je pourrais te le donner aussi)
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
(Mais je ne peux pas voir à travers toi)
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
Je te le donnerais
Je te le donnerais (je te le donnerais)
Certains ont un style
Qu'ils travaillent dur à raffiner
Alors ils marchent sur une ligne brisée
Mais tu ne comprendras pas
Pourquoi quelqu'un devrait essayer
De marcher sur une ligne alors qu'il pourrait voler

Inutile de penser que je pourrais te réhabiliter
Quand tu es bien, bien, bien
Tu as tellement d'idées qui te traversent la tête
Tu n'as besoin de rien de la mienne
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
(Je te le donnerais)
Si tu savais ce dont tu as besoin
(Je pourrais te le donner aussi)
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
(Mais je ne peux pas voir à travers toi)
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
Je te le donnerais
Je te le donnerais
Mais tu veux tout
(Je peux prétendre te tout donner)
Ou bien il n'y a rien que tu veuilles
(Tu ne veux pas le découvrir)
Je suis fou de toi
(Mais tu ne sais pas ce que tu cherches)
Si tu savais ce que tu veux
Je te le donnerais
Je te le donnerais
(Je te le donnerais)
(Je pourrais te le donner aussi)
(Mais je ne peux pas voir à travers toi)
Ooooooh
Je te le donnerais
Je te le donne maintenant
