Paroles et traduction Adamo - Si tu étais

Si tu étais

Si tu étais la terre
Moi je serais semeur
Tu serais ma moisson
Ma loi
Et je mourais ravi
De t'avoir vu en fleurs
M'endormant à jamais
En toi
Car je n'existe que par toi, par toi
Si tu étais le temps
Je serai sablier
Et tu t'égrainerais en moi
Si tu étais le vent
Moi je serais voilier
Et je me gonflerais de toi
Si tu étais...
Mais tu es plus encore mon amour
Tu es, tu es...
Et tu remplis mes jours
Tu es de vie
Tu es d'amour
Tu es...
Si tu étais la route et tes yeux l'horizon
Je te suivrais confiant
Je serais vagabond
Pour épouser ta voix
Moi je serais chanson
Si tu étais émoi
Je serais le frisson
Car je n'existe que par toi, par toi
Si tu étais la mer
Moi je serais rivière
Et mes jours couleraient vers toi
Si tu étais pays
Mes bras seraient frontière
Et je ferais ma guerre pour toi
Si tu étais...
Mais tu es plus encore mon amour
Toi tu es vraie
Et tu remplis mes jours
Tu es de vie, tu es d'amour
Tu es!

If You Were

If you were the earth
I would be a sower
You would be my harvest
My law
And I would die with delight
To have seen you in bloom
Falling asleep forever
In you
Because I exist only through you, by you
If you were time
I would be an hourglass
And you would run out in me
If you were the wind
I would be a sailboat
And I would fill myself with you
If you were...
But you are even more my love
You are, you are...
And you fill my days
You are of life
You are of love
You are...
If you were the road and your eyes the horizon
I would follow you trustingly
I would be a wanderer
To marry your voice
I would be a song
If you were emotion
I would be the shiver
Because I exist only through you, by you
If you were the sea
I would be the river
And my days would flow towards you
If you were a country
My arms would be the border
And I would wage my war for you
If you were...
But you are even more my love
You are true
And you fill my days
You are of life, you are of love
You are!
