J't'oublie pas
Corynne Charby Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mon déçu déplace à chaque voile
Que ma bronze sur la peaux
Rien ne ainsi allure de spécial
Si manque mal en chantait
À écoute seule nous deux
The above lyrics belong to the song "J't'oublie pas" by Corynne Charby. The lyrics describe feelings of longing and missing someone deeply. The first line "Je criée un pays en carte postale" translates to "I shout out a country in a postcard," suggesting that the person is trying to communicate their feelings in some way. The following line, "Mon déçu déplace à chaque voile" can be translated to "My disappointment moves with each sail," suggesting that the person is dealing with a lot of disappointment and sadness.
The next line, "Que ma bronze sur la peaux," can be translated to "That my tan" or "That my bronze" "on the skin." This line adds a layer of nostalgia and memory, suggesting that the person is remembering a time when they were happy and carefree. The following line, "Rien ne ainsi allure de spécial," can be translated to "Nothing looks special like this," suggesting that even though the surroundings seem normal, the person's emotions make everything look different.
Finally, the two lines "Si manque mal en chantait / À écoute seule nous deux," can be translated to "If I missed you, I would sing / Listening alone, just the two of us." These lines suggest that music is an important way for the person to express their emotions and that they feel a strong connection to the person they are missing through music.
