Paroles et traduction Alain Souchon - Petit

Petit

Le soleil est p′tit.
Les nuages sont p'tits.
L′endroit où j'vis,
C'est p′tit, c′est trop p'tit.
On prend l′air, surpris.
C'est vrai qu′l'amour qu′on vit,
De loin il faisait plus agrandi.
Capitaine Némo,
Où il est, ton cargo?
Tu vois: on s'lèche plus l'museau.
Avant on s′caressait l′cur,
On s'donnait des fleurs.
On aurait dit comme un peu l′bonheur.
Maintenant, l'dépliant s′déplie.
La lune est dans l'cagibi
Et la vie s′vide petit à petit.
Tout ça c'est tout p'tit, tout p′tit, tout p′tit.
Tout ça pas grand, pas gros.
Déjà, on s'lèche plus l′museau.
Demain, tellement classique
Avec ou sans pépites.
Tu proposes que des choses tellement petites,
Mais quelque part, cachés,
Engloutis, coulés,
Des mots d'amour sont abimés.
Aujourd′hui, nous deux, c'est trop p′tit.
Nous deux, maintenant, c'est zéro.
Tu vois: on s'lèche plus l′museau.
Le soleil est p′tit.
Les nuages sont p'tits.
L′endroit où j'vis c′est p'tit, c′est trop p'tit.
De loin il faisait plus agrandi.
Tu vois: on s'lèche plus l′museau...

Little

The sun is small.
The clouds are small.
The place where I live
It's small, it's too small.
We look surprised.
The truth is that the love we lived
From afar it seemed bigger.
Captain Nemo
Where is your ship?
You see: we don't lick each other's faces anymore.
Before we caressed each other's hearts
We gave each other flowers.
It would have been like a little happiness.
And now the brochure is out.
The moon is in the closet
And life is emptying little by little.
All that is very small, very small, very small.
All that not big, not fat.
Already, we don't kiss each other.
Tomorrow, so classic
With or without nuggets.
You offer such small things
But somewhere, hidden,
Flooded, sunk
Some words of love are damaged.
Today, the two of us, it's too small.
The two of us now, it's zero.
You see: we don't lick each other's faces anymore.
The sun is small.
The clouds are small.
The place where I live is small, it's too small.
From afar it seemed bigger.
You see: we don't lick each other's faces anymore...
