Paroles et traduction Bruno Pelletier - Le clown

Le clown

Le clown est fatigué de faire le clown ce soir
Et il en a assez de masquer son regard
Il en a trop fait rire des hommes et des enfants
Qui viennent l'applaudir pendant qu'il perd son sang
Ce soir, je ne joue plus la divine comédie
Ce soir, je suis tout nu au milieu de ma vie
Ce soir, le clown a peur d'être tout seul, il pleure
Ce soir, il redevient un homme et son chagrin
Ce soir, il est humain
Ce soir, devant vous il a peur
Il en a vu des villes, il en a fait des tours
Mais que lui reste-t-il d'amour après l'humour
La nuit est revenue, la foule est repartie
Et je reste tout nu au milieu de ma vie
Qu'importent les bravos, ils ne remplacent pas
Les gestes ni les mots que tu avais pour moi
Ce soir, le clown a peur d'être tout seul, il pleure
Ce soir, il redevient un homme et son destin
Ce soir, il est humain
Ce soir, devant vous il a peur

The clown

The clown is tired of being the fool tonight
And he's tired of hiding his eyes
He's laughed too much for men and children
Who come to applaud him while he bleeds
Tonight, I'm not going to play the divine comedy anymore
Tonight, I'm bare naked in the middle of my life
Tonight, the clown is afraid of being alone, he cries
Tonight, he becomes a man and his sorrow again
Tonight, he is human
Tonight, he is afraid in front of you
He has seen many cities, he has made many tours
But what remains of love for him after humor?
The night has come back, the crowd has left
And I'm still bare naked in the middle of my life
What does it matter the bravos, they don't replace
The gestures or the words you had for me
Tonight, the clown is afraid of being alone, he cries
Tonight, he becomes a man and his destiny again
Tonight, he is human
Tonight, he is afraid in front of you
