Je vole [English translation]

Tonight I've closed the shutters

and the door and I threw away the key,

and I won't let anyone in.

That's it, that's settled, tonight

you can scream at my door all you like,

I won't answer the phone.

I will no longer put you in a cage,

you will no longer be my hostage

because

(chorus)

I'm flying, I'm flying,

I'm setting you free.

I'm flying, I'm flying

to be free to love you.

I'm flying, I'm flying, not to die a captive.

And so I'm flying, I'm flying,

you won't make me fall to the ground again.

I'm flying, I'm flying,

to never give in again.

I'm flying, I'm flying,

not to die at your feet.

I will resist your beauty,

even though the very thought is painful.

I got all your messages alright,

but I could not bring myself

to answer you like before.

I don't have much to say.

I will no longer make you suffer.

We're done fooling around.

I'll be a bird of passage.

You'll be free to travel some places else

because

(chorus x2)
