Lyrics and translation The Kinks - Mindless Child of Motherhood (Stereo Version)
I've
been
traveling
a
long
time
J'ai
voyagé
longtemps
To
be
just
where
you
are
Pour
être
juste
où
tu
es
In
dreams
I
have
seen
you
En
rêves,
je
t'ai
vue
But
you
are
so
very
far
Mais
tu
es
si
loin
How
long
must
I
travel
on
Combien
de
temps
dois-je
encore
voyager
To
be
just
where
you
are?
Pour
être
juste
où
tu
es?
How
long
must
I
travel
on
Combien
de
temps
dois-je
encore
voyager
To
be
just
where
you
are?
Pour
être
juste
où
tu
es?
I
was
your
friend
J'étais
ton
ami
I
was
a
fool
J'étais
un
imbécile
I
feel
for
you,
though
we're
far
apart
J'ai
de
la
peine
pour
toi,
même
si
nous
sommes
loin
l'un
de
l'autre
I
see
your
face
Je
vois
ton
visage
Lost
without
trace
Perdu
sans
laisser
de
trace
I
see
your
mind,
just
an
empty
space
Je
vois
ton
esprit,
juste
un
espace
vide
Mindless
child
of
motherhood
Enfant
irréfléchie
de
la
maternité
You
have
lost
the
thing
that's
good
Tu
as
perdu
ce
qui
est
bon
Mindless
child
of
motherhood
Enfant
irréfléchie
de
la
maternité
You
have
lost
the
thing
that's
good
Tu
as
perdu
ce
qui
est
bon
I
know
that
it's
not
fair
Je
sais
que
ce
n'est
pas
juste
To
bare
a
bastard
son
De
porter
un
fils
bâtard
But
why
do
you
hide
there
Mais
pourquoi
te
caches-tu
là
When
we
could
have
shared
a
love?
Alors
que
nous
aurions
pu
partager
un
amour?
How
long
must
I
travel
on
Combien
de
temps
dois-je
encore
voyager
To
be
just
where
you
are?
Pour
être
juste
où
tu
es?
