Je Chanterai

I Will Sing

Je Chanterai

As a kid, I used to invent ideal worldsEnfant j’inventais des mondes idéaux
So beautiful but so fakeTellement beaux mais tellement faux
I wanted to forget we were humansJ’voulais oublier qu’on était humains
Just regular, pretty average folksDes gens bien, bien moyens
They asked us to imagine tomorrowOn nous demandait d’imaginer demain
But tomorrow seemed far away for meMais demain c’est loin pour moi
I had no career ideas, nope, noneJ’avais pas d’idées de métier, non rien
And I didn't want anyEt j’n’en voulais pas

Suddenly the singer went yo yo yoSoudain le chanteur a fait yo yo yo
And everyone shouted yo yo yoEt tout le monde a crié yo yo yo
If a life of singing yo yo yoSi c’est une vie de chanter yo yo yo
It's decided, I will do yo yo yoC’est décidé je ferai yo yo yo
I will singJe chanterai

As a kid, I thought we were all equalEnfant je pensais qu’on était égaux
It was beautiful but it was falseC’était beau mais c’était faux
I didn't want to rush too fastJe voulais pas voler trop vite
Easy, easy, I was small and it was early, so earlyMollo, mollo, j’étais petite et c’était tôt, tellement tôt
They ask you to imagine tomorrowOn te demande d’imaginer demain
But tomorrow seems far away, right?Mais demain c’est loin n’est-ce pas ?
You don't have a career idea, nope, noneT’as pas une idée de métier, non rien
And I was just like youEt j’étais comme toi

Suddenly the singer went yo yo yoSoudain le chanteur a fait yo yo yo
And everyone shouted yo yo yoEt tout le monde a crié yo yo yo
If a life of singing yo yo yoSi c’est une vie de chanter yo yo yo
It's decided, I will do yo yo yoC’est décidé je ferai yo yo yo
I will singJe chanterai

They asked us to imagine tomorrowOn nous demandait d’imaginer demain
But tomorrow seems far away for meMais demain c’est loin pour moi
I had no career ideas, nope, noneJ’avais pas d’idées de métier non rien
And I didn't want anyEt j’n’en voulais pas

Suddenly the singer went yo yo yoSoudain le chanteur a fait yo yo yo
And everyone shouted yo yo yoEt tout le monde a crié yo yo yo
If a life of singing yo yo yoSi c’est une vie de chanter yo yo yo
It's decided, I will do yo yo yoC’est décidé je ferai yo yo yo
I will singJe chanterai
I will singJe chanterai
