J'attendais (i was waiting)


Paroles et musique: Jean-Jacques Goldman

Et j'écoutais longtemps couler l'eau des fontaines
Et j'écoutais le vent chanter infiniment
Vagues de quiétude et de paix
D'aussi loin que je me souvienne
L'enfance est un immense océan

(And I was listening a long time fountain's water pour
And I was listening the wind sing for ever
Waves of quietude and peace
As far as I remember
Childhood is an immense ocean)

Et je rêvais longues années, longue indolence
Où rien ne se passe mais où rien ne s'oublie
J'allais sereine et sans connaître
Le moindre feu d'une absence

(And I dreamed long years, long indolence
Where nothing happens but where nothing is forgotten
I was going serene and without knowing
The smallest fire of an absence)

Ce n'est qu'en te croisant
Que j'ai su, j'ai compris

(That's only when meeting you
That I knew, I understood)

J'attendais, j'attendais
J'attendais ton regard pour expliquer enfin
Le pourquoi de ces au revoir
A tout ce long chemin

(I was waiting, I was waiting
I was waiting your look to explain finally
The reason of these goodbyes
To that long road)

J'attendais, j'attendais
Le pays de ton corps le toucher de tes mains
Ma douce boussole mon nord,
Le sens à mes demains

(I was waiting, I was waiting
The country of your body the touch of your hands
My dear compass my north
The meaning to my tomorrows)

Et j'abordais les troubles rives adolescentes
Les doutes, les jeux, les mauvais courants
Je me souviens les coups de sang
Des musiques et des mots de France
Amants d'avant

(And I was boarding the adolescent beaches
Doubts, games, and bad flowings
I remember the strokes
Musics and words from France
Past lovers)

Y'a bien des vies qu'on nourrit d'étude ou de science
Destins faits d'aventures, de records ou d'argent
Des vies d'écriture et de voyage
Ou de rêve de puissance
J'y pensais bien de temps en temps,
En écoutant le vent

(There's a lot of lives feeded from studies or science
Destinies make from adventures, from records or money
Lives of writting and voyages
Or from puissance dream
I tought about that from time to time
Listening the wind)

J'attendais, j'attendais
J'attendais ton regard pour expliquer enfin
Le pourquoi de ces au revoir
A tout ce long chemin

(I was waiting, I was waiting
I was waiting your look to explain finally
The reason of these goodbyes
To that long road)

J'attendais, j'attendais, j'attendais ton amour
Ton beau ton bel amour
Je l'attendais pour enfin vivre
En donnant à mon tour

(I was waiting, I was waiting I was waiting your love
Your lovely your beautiful love
I was waiting to finally live
By giving at my turn)

J'attendais
(I was waiting)
