Parler à mon père [English translation]

I would like to forget the time

For a sigh for an instant

A parenthesis after the race

And depart where my heart pushes me

I would like to find again my traces

Where is my life where is my place

And keep* the gold of my past

In the warmness of my secret garden

I would like to pass the ocean, cruise the flight of a gull

Think of all this I have seen and go as well to the unknown

I would like to take down the moon, I would as well like to save the Earth

But before everything else I would like to talk to my father

Talk to my father..

I would like to choose a ship

Neither the biggest one nor the most beautiful one

I would fill it up with images

And with perfumes of my trips

I would like to slow down to take a seat

To find at the hollow of my memory

Voices of those people who taught me

That there is no forbidden dream

I would like to find the colours, the paintings that I have inside my heart

Of this decoration in pure lines, where I see you and I reassure myself

I would like to take down the moon, I would as well like to save the Earth

But before everything else I would like to talk to my father

Talk to my father..

I would like to forget the time

For a sigh for an instant

A parenthesis after the race

And depart where my heart pushes me

I would like to find again my traces

Where is my life where is my place

And keep* the gold of my past

In the warmness of my secret garden

I would like to depart with you

I would like to dream with you

To always search for the inaccessible

To always hope for the impossible

I would like to take down the moon

and why not saving the Earth?

But before everything else I would like to talk to my father

Talk to my father..

I would like to talk to my father

Talk to my father..
