Sundown / L'Amour C'est Comme L'été
Roch Voisine Lyrics
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.
(Guitare solo)
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.
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
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.

C'est tout chaud, c'est trop froid, ça tourne tout le temps.

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.
