Paroles, paroles…

– C'est étrange, je ne sais pas ce qui m'arrive ce soir. Je te regarde comme pour la première fois.

– Encore des mots, toujours des mots,

les mêmes mots…

– Je ne sais plus comment te dire…

– Rien que des mots…

– … mais tu es cette belle histoire d'amour

que je ne cesserai jamais de lire.

– Des mots faciles, des mots fragiles,

c'était trop beau.

– Tu es d'hier et de demain…

– Bien trop beau.

– … de toujours, ma seule vérité.

– Mais c'est fini le temps des rêves,

les souvenirs se fanent aussi

quand on les oublie.

– Tu es comme le vent qui fait chanter les violons

et emporte au loin le parfum des roses.

– Caramels, bonbons et chocolats…

– Par moments, je ne te comprends pas.

– Merci, pas pour moi, mais

tu peux bien les offrir à une autre

qui aime le vent et le parfum des roses.

Moi, les mots tendres, enrobés de douceur,

se posent sur ma bouche,

mais jamais sur mon cœur.

– Une parole encore.

– Paroles, paroles, paroles…

– Écoute-moi.

– Paroles, paroles, paroles…

– Je t'en prie.

– Paroles, paroles, paroles…

– Je te jure.

– Paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles,

encore des paroles que tu sèmes au vent.

– Voilà mon destin : te parler…

te parler comme la première fois.

– Encore des mots, toujours des mots,

les mêmes mots…

– Comme j'aimerais que tu me comprennes…

– Rien que des mots…

– … que tu m'écoutes au moins une fois.

– Des mots magiques, des mots tactiques

qui sonnent faux.

– Tu es mon rêve défendu…

– Oui, tellement faux.

– … mon seul tourment et mon unique espérance.

– Rien ne t'arrête quand tu commences.

Si tu savais comme j'ai envie d'un peu de silence…

– Tu es pour moi la seule musique

qui fait danser les étoiles sur les dunes.

– Caramels, bonbons et chocolats…

– Si tu n'existais pas déjà, je t'inventerais.

– Merci, pas pour moi, mais

tu peux bien les ouvrir à une autre

qui aime les étoiles sur les dunes.

Moi, les mots tendres, enrobés de douceur,

se posent sur ma bouche,

mais jamais sur mon cœur.

– Encore un mot, juste une parole…

– Paroles, paroles, paroles…

– Écoute-moi.

– Paroles, paroles, paroles…

– Je t'en prie.

– Paroles, paroles, paroles…

– Je te jure.

– Paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles,

encore des paroles que tu sèmes au vent.

– Que tu es belle !

– Paroles, paroles, paroles…

– Que tu es belle !

– Paroles, paroles, paroles…

– Que tu es belle !

– Paroles, paroles, paroles…

– Que tu es belle !

– Paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles,

encore des paroles que tu sèmes au vent…

Words, words

IT'S STRANGE

I DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL BE LIKE FOR ME TONIGHT

I LOOK AT YOU AS I DID THE FIRST TIME

OTHER WORDS, ALWAYS WORDS

THE SAME WORDS

I DON'T KNOW HOW ELSE TO TELL YOU

ANYTHING ELSE BUT WORDS

BUT YOU ARE THAT BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY

THAT I WILL NEVER STOP READING.

EASY WORDS, FRAGILE WORDS

IT WAS TOO BEAUTIFUL

YOU ARE THE ONE OF TODAY AND THE ONE OF TOMORROW

TOO BEAUTIFUL

YOU ARE ALWAYS MY ONLY TRUTH.

BUT THE TIME FOR DREAMING IS UP

MEMORIES ALSO FADE

WHEN WE FORGET THEM

YOU ARE LIKE THE WIND THAT MAKES VIOLINS PLAY

AND YOU TAKE AWAY WITH YOU THE ROSES' PERFUME

TOFFEES, SWEETS, CHOCOLATES

SOMETIMES, I DON'T UNDERSTAND YOU.

THANKS, NOT FOR ME

BUT YOU CAN ALSO OFFER THEM TO ANOTHER (MAN)

WHO LIKES THE WIND AND THE ROSES' PERFUME

ME, THE TENDER WORDS FULL OF SWEETNESS

STAY ON MY MOUTH, BUT NEVER ON MY HEART

ANOTHER WORD.

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

LISTEN TO ME.

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

PLEASE.

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

I SWEAR TO YOU.

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

OTHER WORDS THAT YOU SOW IN THE WIND

HERE'S MY DESTINY TALKING TO YOU

TALKING TO YOU LIKE THE FIRST TIME

OTHER WORDS, ALWAYS WORDS,

THE SAME WORDS

HOW I'D LIKE FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND ME

NOTHING ELSE BUT WORDS

LISTEN TO ME AT LEAST ONCE.

MAGIC WORDS, TACTICAL WORDS

THAT SOUND FAKE

YOU ARE MY FORBIDDEN DREAM

YES, FAKE

MY ONLY PAIN AND MY UNIQUE HOPE.

NOTHING STOPS YOU WHEN YOU START

IF YOU KNEW HOW MUCH I'D LIKE

SOME SILENCE

YOU ARE FOR ME THE ONLY MUSIC...

THAT MAKES STARS DANCE ON THE DUNES

TOFFEES, SWEETS, CHOCOLATES

IF YOU HAVEN'T EXISTED, I WOULD HAVE INVENTED YOU.

THANKS, NOT FOR ME

BUT YOU CAN ALSO OPEN THEM UP FOR ANOTHER (MAN)

WHO LIKE THE SATRS ON THE DUNES

ME, THE TENDER WORDS FULL OF SWEETNESS

STAY ON MY MOUTH, BUT NEVER ON MY HEART

ANOTHER WORD, JUST A WORD

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

LISTEN TO ME.

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

PLEASE.

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

I SWEAR TO YOU.

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

OTHER WORDS THAT YOU SOW IN THE WIND

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS, WORDS, WORDS

OTHER WORDS THAT YOU SOW IN THE WIND

This translation has clear "factual" errors.

"Hier' means "yesterday" not "today".

"Stars" is misspelled.

MOST important, "another (man)" is in the translation, twice. It should be "another woman". This is clear from the context, it makes no sense otherwise. But, to be exactly precise, there is a pronoun used to describe this "other person"; and this pronoun, "une", is a feminine pronoun. "Un" would be masculine. So it's a woman. The female singer, Dalita, is saying to the man: "Offer these sweets to another woman".
