Paroles et traduction Louis Chédid - Illusions perdues

Illusions perdues

Illusions perdues
Tu t'dis qu'ta vie est foutue
Que le temps t'a grignoté
Que les années t'ont mangé
Illusions perdues
T'espérais aut'chose
La vie t'a déçu
T'espérais aut'chose
Quand tu regardes en arrière
T'es comme un scaphandrier
Qui n'a plus d'oxygène
Et qui n'peut plus remonter
Illusions perdues
T'espérais aut'chose
La vie t'a bien eu
T'espérais aut'chose

Lost Illusions

Lost illusions
You say your life's a mess
That time has eaten you away
That the years have consumed you
Lost illusions
You hoped for something different
Life has disappointed you
You hoped for something different
When you look back
You're like a diver
Who has run out of oxygen
And who can't go back up
Lost illusions
You hoped for something different
Life has played a trick on you
You hoped for something different
