Tombe la neige

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Et tombe et tombe en trombe la neige
Et si j'y monte je tomberai du toit
Comme m'inonde ton monde et ton manège
Qui me font tomber raide dingue de toi

Je voulais que tu m'aimes, je voulais il y'a des années de ça
Il fallait que tu reviennes, fallait-il, ou dis, le fallait-il pas?
Le train tu sais

De peu je l'ai raté , j'ai pris celui d'après
D'après ton lit

Et tombe et tombe en trombe la neige
Et si j'y monte je tomberai du toit
Comme m'inonde ton monde et ton manège
Qui me font tomber raide dingue de toi

Il suffit d'un hiver, il suffit mais dis-moi pourquoi celui là
Revenir en arrière, revenir maintenant ne se fait pas

Le train, c'est vrai
Quand il m'a dépassé, j'ai changé deux billets
J'ai du te remplacer, tu vois, le train qui vient
Après le chagrin, quand j'ai tendu la main j'ai pu monter

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

Le train, ma foi
Une fois loin de moi, ne m'a laissé de choix
Que celui de la voie, je m'y revois pleurer
Attendant l'été
Je m'y revois penser aux trains passés

Et tombe et tombe en trombe la neige
Et si j'y monte je tomberai du toit

Comme m'inonde ton monde et ton manège
Qui me font tomber raide dingue de toi

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the French song "Tombe la neige" by Vianney tell the story of a man who is deeply in love with a woman, who seems to have left him. The snow – which falls heavily and is described as a danger if he were to climb up to the roof – here symbolizes his deep feelings and emotions for this lost love. The world and the merry-go-round of this woman take him into a downward spiral of love that makes him go completely crazy about her.

The singer of the song reflects on his past love for this woman, which goes back years ago when he wished she would love him back. He is not sure if it was necessary for her to come back into his life. The train is mentioned in the lyrics, and it represents time and opportunities missed. The singer misses the train which perhaps could have brought him to his love, but he did not make it in time. He went to her bed afterward and took the next train. He was probably trying to do anything possible to win back her love.

The singer muses on the idea that one winter – just one winter – was enough for everything to change. He can't turn back time and change what has already happened. He describes how he got on the train after it passed him by, and he also took the second train to arrive at her place. The train, in a way, made him think deeply and let his feelings out. In the end, he is still hopelessly in love with her, and all he can think about is how much he wants to be with her.
