Elle Pleure
Louis Bertignac Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sans raison, sans façon, sans même un frisson,
Elle pleure ,
Elle pleure, pour dire pour faire , parfois pour rire ,
Et elle pleure,
Comme s'il y avait de quoi croire
Comme s'il y avait encore de l'espoir comme une chercheuse d'Or
Elle pleure sans peine, sans peur, et sans douleur
Elle pleure sans se froisser, pour tout ce qui est passé
Pour tout ce qui est perdu,
Elle pleure,
Elle pleure au moindre serment d'coeur,
Au moinre coin de rue elle se retrouve nez a nez
Alors elle pleure, elle se fond en douceur
En plein silence,en plein soleil,
Elle pleure
Elle pleure sans le savoir
Sans même désespoir, pour une poignée d'souvenir,
Elle pleure
The lyrics of Louis Bertignac's song Elle Pleure talks about a woman who seems to cry effortlessly and without reason. She cries like she breathes, without even a shiver, for things that have passed, for things that are lost. She cries to express herself, sometimes to laugh, cry as if there is something to believe in, something to still hope for, like a gold seeker. She cries without pain, without fear and without any discomfort, for everything that has passed, everything that is lost, every small corner of her heart, every street that she walks on. She even cries without knowing and without despair, just for a handful of memories.
This song appears to be about a woman who is constantly haunted by the past and unable to let go of it. Despite everything that has happened in her life, she continues to believe that there is hope and something to look forward to. The lyrics suggest that the woman perhaps doesn't even know why she is crying and that she can't help it. The song could also be about the human capacity for emotional release and how tears can be a cathartic way of dealing with our past hurt and trauma.
