Sundown - L'amour c'est comme l'été

I can see her lying back in her satin dress
In a room when you do what you don’t confess.
Sundown, you better take care
If I find you been creeping round my backstairs.
Sundown, you better take care
If I find you been creeping round my backstairs.
She’s been looking like a queen from a sailor’s dream
And she don’t always say what she really means.
Sometimes, I think it’s a shame
When I get feeling better, when I’m feeling no pain.
Sometimes, I think it’s a shame
When I get feeling better, when I’m feeling no pain.
 
Le sommeil a du bon quand tu dors près de moi
Quand tu viens dans mes rêves, en sortant de mes bras.
L’amour, c’est comme un refrain.
Tu le chantes aujourd’hui, tu l’oublies demain.
L’amour, c’est un océan
Une marche aux étoiles où l’on se perd souvent...
 
Tu n’étais qu’une aiguille dans une botte de foin
Et j’ai su te trouver, moi qui ne trouvais rien.
L’amour, c’est comme un oiseau.
Ça voyage très loin, ça tombe de très haut.
L’amour, c’est comme le vent.
C’est tout chaud, c’est trop froid, ça tourne tout le temps.
L’amour, c’est comme l’été,
Il nous faut un automne pour le regretter.
 
Sometimes, I think it’s a sin
When I feel like I’m winning, when I’m losing again...
 
L’amour, c’est comme l’été...

Sundown - Love, it's like summer

I can see her lying back in her satin dress
In a room when you do what you don’t confess.
Sundown, you better take care
If I find you been creeping round my backstairs.
Sundown, you better take care
If I find you been creeping round my backstairs.
She’s been looking like a queen from a sailor’s dream
And she don’t always say what she really means.
Sometimes, I think it’s a shame
When I get feeling better, when I’m feeling no pain.
Sometimes, I think it’s a shame
When I get feeling better, when I’m feeling no pain.
 
Sleep ain't bad when you're sleeping next to me
When you come into my dreams, coming out of my arms.
Love - it's like a refrain.
You're singing it today, you forget about it tomorrow.
Love - it's an ocean
A walk under the stars that we often get lost in...
 
You were just a needle in a haystack
And I knew how to find you, as someone who could never find anything.1
Love - it's like a bird.
It travels very far, it falls from very high up.
Love, it's like the wind.
It's all warm, it's too cold, it swirls all the time.
Love - it's like summer.
We need an autumn for us to miss it.
 
Sometimes, I think it’s a sin
When I feel like I’m winning, when I’m losing again...
 
Love - it's like summer
 
  • 1. Literally "I who used to (continuously) find nothing". In other words, he is saying that he used to be unable to find things until he met his lover.
