Paroles et traduction Patrick Norman - Quand l’amour te tend la main

Quand l’amour te tend la main

Le soleil brûlait la route
Toi, tu avais le coeur en déroute
À chaque courbe du chemin
C'est son visage que tu voyais au loin

Depuis que tu l'as quittée
Elle n'en est pas sortie, de tes pensées
Si l'amour te tend la main
Rien ne sert d'attendre au lendemain

Tu avais choisi de partir
Quand ton coeur te disait de revenir
Mais les histoires de ton passé
Revenaient trop souvent te hanter

Ne laisse jamais les nuages
Assombrir tes plus beaux paysages
Quand l'amour te tend la main
Rien ne sert d'attendre au lendemain

Elle était si belle
Tu n'as pas su trouver les mots
Elle t'a donné des ailes
Mais tu as eu peur de t'envoler
Un peu plus haut

Devant l'église, quand t'es passé
Elle venait tout juste de se marier
Quand l'amour te tend la main
Rien ne sert d'attendre au lendemain, oh non

Elle était si belle
Tu n'as pas su trouver les mots
Elle t'a donné des ailes
Mais tu as eu peur de t'envoler
Un peu plus haut

Devant l'église, quand tu es passé
Elle venait tout juste de se marier
Quand l'amour te tend la main
Rien ne sert d'attendre au lendemain
Quand l'amour te tend la main
Rien ne sert d'attendre au lendemain, i-ouh

My Love (English translation)

The sun was scorching the road
You were heartbroken
At every curve in the road
It was his face that you saw in the distance

Since you left her
She hasn't been out of your thoughts
If my love should ask for your hand
There's no point in waiting until tomorrow

You had chosen to leave
When your heart was telling you to come back
But the stories of your past
Came back to haunt you all too often

Don't let any clouds ever
Darken your most beautiful landscapes
If my love should ask for your hand
There's no point in waiting until tomorrow

She was so beautiful
You couldn't find the words
She gave you wings
But you were afraid to fly
A little higher

As you passed by the church
She had just got married
If my love should ask for your hand
There's no point in waiting until tomorrow, oh no

She was so beautiful
You couldn't find the words
She gave you wings
But you were afraid to fly
A little higher

As you passed by the church
She had just got married
If my love should ask for your hand
There's no point in waiting until tomorrow
If my love should ask for your hand
There's no point in waiting until tomorrow, i-ouh
