Summer Nights
Oramas Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

SUMMER NIGHT
Il est temps de faire le vide,
il est temps de prendre l’air
Dehors l’ambiance est torride
C’est le moment laisse-toi faire
On a summer night
Summer of my life
Oh those older nights

Summer of my life
Ouvre ton corps sur les étoiles
Laisse-toi rebondir sur la toile
Y’a trop de façons de pleurer
Et trop de coins où se planquer
Ne veux-tu pas lever la tête,
Ne rêves-tu pas que ça s’arrête
Tu n’es pas très juste avec toi,
Non, non, pas très sympa
Regarde le haut des escaliers
Ce n’est pas si long de grimper
Il suffirait que tu t’envoles
Que tes pieds touchent le sol
Laisse tes épaules te guider
Laisse-les doucement t’entrainer
Et vois le monde autour de toi
Il ne partira pas…sans toi
On a summer night
Summer of my life
Oh those older nights
Summer of my life
On croit tous qu’on est les seuls
Comme nous, qu’ils nous en veulent
On créé des montagnes de soupirs
Qui nous empêchent de dormir
Alors va, va dans le rêve
Et sent ton coeur, qui se soulève
Et à ces voix, qui t’exaspèrent
Allez, dis-leur, tu peux l’faire
What, say what ? Shut your mouth
Go fuck yourself you little twat
Won’t bend the knees, won’t close my eyes
Just tired of always being the one who lies
Who the hell are you talking to
I refuse to be the one that you want me to
I can choose my day, I can choose my life
My love, my friends and my summer nights
On a summer night
Summer of my life
Oh those older nights
Summer of my life
Et à tout ce qui te brise
A ces voix qui t’exaspèrent

J’aimerais te l’entendre dire
Allez vous faire
