Translation of À l’heure où je me couche from French to English
One day we came into the world
Since then we've been waiting for the world to come to us
All the better if the road is long
We'll be able to take a few more detours
The future belongs to those who get up at the time I go to bed
The future belongs to those who get up at the time I go to bed
I face life like a blind man with a walkman
Like an anomaly in their program
Your dreams are my nightmares
I'll be 20 years old all my life, nothing is ever too late
Even if it means losing my way
Not sure that the night brings wisdom when you hang out outside
Let me do what I do best
I'll continue my nonsense until they take me seriously
One day we came into the world
Since then we've been waiting for the world to come to us
All the better if the road is long
We'll be able to take a few more detours
The future belongs to those who get up at the time I go to bed
The future belongs to those who get up at the time I go to bed
Don't ask me what the future holds, I don't know
It's been an eternity since I left my house
My morale is in a sad state
Living day by day as if the next one didn't exist
Tired of observing the world from afar
I need to escape my city and its corners
To know what tomorrow looks like
No one wishes me good luck
But I won't spend my life wondering when it begins
One day we came into the world
Since then we've been waiting for the world to come to us
All the better if the road is long
We'll be able to take a few more detours
The future belongs to those who get up at the time I go to bed
The future belongs to those who get up at the time I go to bed
Like the Monday morning hangover
Wanting to turn back halfway
When the whole city tells you you're going nowhere
Like a sleepwalker on the edge of the cliff
Wanting to call for help, for someone to hold your hand
When all you know how to do is procrastinate
At the time I go to bed, when the birds sing
The neighbor goes to work while I fall asleep with bitterness and anxiety in my stomach
Life is passing by and I can't wait anymore
And if I ended up stuck forever between the walls of my room
There's nothing to understand when you grow up in a diving suit
We get up, we hang out, we kill time in a shopping mall
I don't want to be absent from my own life
Watching our little stories pass by the big one
One day we came into the world
Since then we've been waiting for the world to come to us
All the better if the road is long
We'll be able to take a few more detours
The future belongs to those who get up at the time I go to bed
The future belongs to those who get up at the time I go to bed
One day we came into the world
Since then we've been waiting for the world to come to us
All the better if the road is long
We'll be able to take a few more detours
The future belongs to those who get up at the time I go to bed
The future belongs to those who get up at the time I go to bed
Where we come from
Far from everything
For tomorrow
Nothing moves
Where we come from
Far from everything
For tomorrow
Nothing moves
Where we come from
Far from everything
For tomorrow
Nothing moves
Where we come from
Far from everything
For tomorrow
Nothing moves
