Paris
Willy William Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Rouler sur ces rues pavées
Un air d'été sur la capitale
On était là lala
Quelques musiciens me donnaient la mélo
C'est c'qui faisait tout son charme
Quand je chante lalalala lala
Je me bas dans Paris
Je me bas dans Paris
Paris, Paris
Je me bas dans Paris
Je, je me bas dans Paris
Je me bas dans Paris
Rompopopom rompopopom pom
Je me bas dans Paris
When I look up at the shining light
I think of us together
A cigarette and a bottle of wine
Let's run away forever
I can barely sleep
The city's calling me
I want you to stay
Hey, I think I fell in love with the motion
So I could never run too far
Sometimes you wanna cross every ocean
Just to find that piece of your heart
I can barely sleep
Why won't you come to me?
I want you to stay!
Parce que moi je me bas dans Paris
Je me bas dans Paris
Je me bas dans Paris
Paris, Paris
Je me bas dans Paris
Je, je me bas dans Paris
Je me bas dans Paris
Rompopopom rompopopom pom
Je me bas dans Paris
Je me bas dans Paris
The lyrics of Willy William's song Paris can be interpreted as an ode to the city of love and its vibrant and inspiring culture. The first verse describes the singer's decision to trade his car for a bike, symbolizing the idea of slowing down and enjoying the small things in life. He then talks about the ambiance of the city during summertime, with street musicians adding a touch of melody to the already beautiful cityscape. The chorus "Je me bas dans Paris" can be translated to "I fight in Paris," indicating the singer's willingness to struggle and work hard to achieve his dreams in the city.
The second verse shifts the focus to the singer's romantic feelings, imagining a scenario where he and his loved one escape the city together, possibly on a wild adventure fueled by wine and cigarettes. He expresses his desire for the person to stay with him and the frustration of being unable to sleep. The bridge of the song talks about the singer's love for traveling and the importance of finding one's piece of heart, implying that Paris is the place where he has found his. The song ends with the chorus repeated, emphasizing the singer's dedication and love for the city.
