I Was Waiting lyrics

Et j`coutais longtemps couler l`eau des fontaines
Et j`coutais le vent chanter infiniment
Vagues de quitude et de paix
D`aussi loin que je me souvienne
L`enfance est un immense ocan


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 rvais longues annes, longue indolence
O rien ne se passe mais o rien ne s`oublie
J`allais sereine et sans connatre
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 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`tude ou de science
Destins faits d`aventures, de records ou d`argent
Des vies d`criture et de voyage
Ou de rve de puissance
J`y pensais bien de temps en temps,
En coutant 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 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
