Translation of Soleil Noir from French to English
The sun desires me but the rain inspires me
I've always preferred bad weather
Writing under the endless rain
I do it even better when I hear the wind
When I smell the concrete wet from the weather
When I feel the clouds are going to come together again
When the storm arrives, I go out, I listen and I wait, hey
I get bored when it's sunny
I don't want to see all these people who get up early
Who are happy to go to work for a blue sky
Who go for walks in the forest to be happy
Me, it tires me to be in the sun
Me, I feel empty and I'm sleepy
I don't get inspired by the cheerfulness of passers-by
I don't get inspired by the arrival of holidays, hey
I write during the day only when the weather is bad
I'm caught off guard, it's sunny, I lock myself in
Feelings multiplied when I hear the downpour
People wait for summer, me, I wait for the opposite
Snow, fog, rain, I prefer my pen at night
Snow, fog, rain, I prefer my pen at night, hey
It's raining, let's go out
Come on, let's go for a walk outside
We'll talk for hours
We'll see each other from before until after
It's raining, let's go out
Come on, let's go for a walk outside, hey, hey
When I manage to be alone
I go out and I break a roof in my West suburb
And I watch the lighthouse of the Eiffel Tower
And I break a bar of my frail roll-up
And I stay apart if the good weather gets involved
And yeah, good weather pisses me off
I find it boring and so, I sulk
I listen to Pink Floyd, leave me alone
Leave me in my Darkside of the Sun
I have clear ideas when the weather is not
I analyze and observe when the weather separates me
From the arrival of the sun that the grayness repairs
I come alive in front of the sky that darkens the square
A slight circle blends into the mass
We barely distinguish low brightness
In front of my window, my thoughts drown
The sky gave birth to a black sun
It's raining, let's go out
Come on, let's go for a walk outside
We'll talk for hours
We'll see each other from before until after
It's raining, let's go out
Come on, let's go for a walk outside, hey, hey, hey
It's raining, let's go out
Come on, let's go for a walk outside
We'll talk for hours
We'll see each other from before until after
It's raining, let's go out
Come on, let's go for a walk outside, hey, hey, hey
It's raining, let's go out
Come on, let's go for a walk outside
We'll talk for hours
We'll see each other from before until after
It's raining, let's go out
Come on, let's go for a walk outside, hey
