Baby I think something’s wrong
We’re living in the shadow of our future Well I’m just too fond of you
And the tidal waves they keep on Erasing our letters in the sand And the sailors won’t even know
Bring back the winter so we can write them in the snow Come on my lover, stay here, oh please don’t go
‘Cause I’m never free without you No I’m never free without you
Maybe we just don’t belong
You’re asking me to be somebody else Well I’m not as strong as you
And the tidal waves they keep on Collapsing our castles to the ground And the swimmers won’t even know
Bring back the winter so we can build them in the snow Come on my lover, stay here, oh please don’t go
‘Cause I’m always lost without you Yeah I’m always lost without you Without you

Quand nous chanterons le temps des cerises Et gai rossignol et merle moqueur Seront tous en fête Les belles auront la folie en tête Et les amoureux du soleil au cœur Quand nous chanterons le temps des cerises Sifflera bien mieux le merle moqueur
Mais il est bien court le temps des cerises Où l'on s'en va deux cueillir en rêvant Des pendants d'oreilles Cerises d'amour aux robes pareilles Tombant sous la feuille en gouttes de sang Mais il est bien court le temps des cerises Pendants de corail qu'on cueille en rêvantQuand vous en serez au temps des cerises Si vous avez peur des chagrins d'amour Evitez les belles Moi qui ne crains pas les peines cruelles Je ne vivrai point sans souffrir un jour Quand vous en serez au temps des cerises Vous aurez aussi des peines d'amourJ'aimerai toujours le temps des cerises C'est de ce temps-là que je garde au cœur Une plaie ouverte Et Dame Fortune, en m'étant offerte Ne pourra jamais fermer ma douleur J'aimerai toujours le temps des cerises Et le souvenir que je garde au cœur
English translation : Cherry Time When we will sing of the cherry timeAnd gay nightingale and mocking blackbirdWill all be happy as locksThe fair ladies will have folly in mindAnd lovers sunshine in their heartsWhen we will sing of the cherry timeThe mocking blackbird will chirp even better But it’s quite short, the cherry timeWhen the two of us go dreaming as we pickCherry earingsCherries of love in matching dressesFalling under the leaves like drops of bloodBut it is quiet short, the cherry timeCoral pendants we pick while we dream When you will be in the cherry timeAnd you’re afraid of love’s sadnessAvoid the fair ladiesI not fearing the cruel painsI will live not one day without sufferingWhen you will be in the cherry timeYou too will feel the sadness of love I will always love the cherry timeIt’s from this time that I keep in my heartAn open woundAnd Lady Fortune being offered to meCould never relieve my painI will always love the cherry timeAnd the memory I keep in my heart

Italiano Blu, il colore della libertà,
Blu, il chiarore dell' immensità,
Lassù, dove il mondo nasce e finisce
lassù, dove il sole splende e sparisce.
Soffio, sulla vela bianca in balìa,
Soffio, su un uomo che non tornerà,
Respiro, respiro della sposa ora lasciata, Respiro respiro dell' onda morendo sulla riva. Français
Bleu, La couleur de la liberté Bleu, la pureté de l’immensité Là-haut, où le monde commence et se termine Là-haut où le soleil brille et disparaît
Un souffle Sur la voile blanche en errance (ou qui dérive ?) Un souffle, sur un homme qui ne reviendra pas Un soupir, Un soupir de la mariée laissée seule Un soupir de l’onde qui meurt sur la rive
English
Blue The colour of freedom Blue, purity and immensity Up there where the world begins and ends Up there where the sun shines and disappears
A breath
On the white sail in the distance A breath on a man who will never return A sigh,
A sigh of the bride left alone A sigh of the wave that dies on the shore

Virgule sur la langue Le temps incertain Flotte comme un ange Fixe le silence Fige la rue Et passe son chemin.
Filent les nuages Tombe la pluie Les heures s’égrainent
Le long du chemin La parole revient S’écrit sur la page
Coulent les mots Un flot sur la langue Les minutes s’envolent
Le temps s’éclaircit La rue se disperse L’aurore accomplie
Comma on the tong Uncertain time Floats like an angel Fixes the silence Freezes the street And goes on its way
Clouds fly by Rain falls Hours are counted Along the way Words return Written on the page
A wave of words
Flow from the tongue The minutes fly by The weather brightens The street disperses The dawn accomplished
