Paroles et traduction Stereolab - Velvet Water

Velvet Water

Vois la vague se creuse comme la braise dans le vent
Vois la c'est ici qu a son aise il s'enfuit le temps,
Par moment
Quand le temps qui passe qui s'egard ne se retrouve pas
C'est la lumiere du sombre regard qui qui de mes pas,
Vain combat
Vois la vague se creuse comme la braise dans le vent
Vois la c'est ici qu a son aise il s'enfuit le temps,
Et pourtant
Quand il se devoile
L'eblouissement
De la flamme
Au corps nu
Quand le temps qui passe qui s'egard ne se retrouve pas
C'est la lumiere du sombre regard qui qui de mes pas,
Vain combat
Vois la vague se creuse comme la braise dans le vent
Vois la c'est ici qu a son aise il s'enfuit le temps,
Et pourtant
Quand il se devoile
L'eblouissement
De la flamme
Au corps nu
S'arrache a la nuit
Ou scintille l'ame
Du temps devolu
De la flamme
Au corps nu
C'est la flamme
Au corps nu
Celle quschintille l'ame
Le temps est devlu
La y brille une flamme
Le nageur n'a plus peur
Il plonge sous la lumiere
Vit dans les elements
Eperdu dans la mer
Sa bouche veut le sel

Velvet water (translation)
See the wave hollowing out like an ember in the wind
Look there, it's here that one is comfortable
Time runs away, now and then
When time that passes and loses its way can't find itself
It's the light or the shadowed look that guides my steps, vain battle
And yet
When he/it reveals itself
The flame's dazzlement
In the naked body
Fighting in the night
Where does the soul of time
That is attached to the flame
In the naked body glow
(It's the flame
In the naked body
It's here that the soul glows
Time is attached
There where a flame burns
The swimmer is fearless
He dives beneath the light
Lives in the elements
Submerged in the sea
His mouth wants salt.)

Velvet Water

See the wave is hollowing out like the embers in the wind
See, this is where he's at ease, he runs away all the time,
By moment
When the time that passes that is lost is not found
It is the light of the dark gaze that which of my steps,
Vain fight
See the wave is hollowing out like the embers in the wind
See, this is where he's at ease, he runs away all the time,
And yet
When he unveils himself
The dazzle
From the flame
To the naked body
When the time that passes that is lost is not found
It is the light of the dark gaze that which of my steps,
Vain fight
See the wave is hollowing out like the embers in the wind
See, this is where he's at ease, he runs away all the time,
And yet
When he unveils himself
The dazzle
From the flame
To the naked body
Snatches at night
Or the soul sparkles
Devolved time
From the flame
To the naked body
This is the flame
To the naked body
The one who instills the soul
The time has come
The y shines a flame
Le nageur n'a plus peur
Il plonge sous la lumiere
Vit dans les elements
Eperdu dans la mer
Sa bouche veut le sel
