Rouge
Franska Trion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Je sorti dans la rue
Peut-être bien que ce ne soit qu'un rêve
Je pense marcher, ça fait mal
Je t'ai appelé
Je t'ai appelé
On s'amuse, montre-moi ta langue
Un moment plus tard fait deux
Où est par les va-et-vient
Je t'ai appelé
Je t'ai appelé
Je t'ai appelé
Je t'ai appelé
The French song "Rouge" by Franska Trion begins with the singer waking up with his eyes open and heading out to the street, wondering if it's all just a dream. He sets out to walk but feels some pain. The next lines seem to be a conversation with someone else, perhaps a lover, as they speak about colors - red, green, and brown - and having fun, sticking out their tongues. The lyrics suggest a joyful moment, but the following line talks about something lost: "A moment later it's two, where is it amidst the comings and goings?"
The repetition of "Je t'ai appelé" (I called you) adds a haunting quality to the song, leaving the listener curious about the person the singer is calling out to. What kind of relationship do they have? Did they lose touch? Are they still close? Overall, "Rouge" seems to be a reflection on the uncertainty and fleeting nature of life's joyful moments, while also hinting at the possibility of finding meaning and connection with others.
