Lyrics
Parle
chacun de nous dans sa vie
a presque toujours un dur moment
qui ne paraît ne jamais finir.
alors, ce jour-là,
tout semble long, long, long, long
tout semble long, long, long, long.
le vieux gin qui est mon ami
m’a dit avoir souffert de mille maux
et qui ne buvait que du whisky
tout un jour a dû boire de l’eau.
oh ! c'était long, long, long, long.
oh ! c'était long …
je connais certains gars
qui depuis plus de vingt ans n’oublie pas
le jour d’un fameux débarquement.
pour eux, c'était ce jour-là le plus long.
oh ! c'était long …
oh ! c'était long, long, long, long.
ce soir, c’est moi qui, grâce à toi,
connait de ce fameux jour, les tourments.
en robe blanche, tu n’en finis pas
de dire au revoir à papa et maman.
tout ça, c’est long, long, long, long, oh oui.
tout ça, c’est long, long, long, long,
oooh ! tout ça c’est long, long, long.
tout ça, c’est long …
tout ça, c’est long, long, long, long

Spoken
each of us in his life
almost always has a hard time
which never seems to end.
so, that day,
everything seems long, long, long, long
everything seems long, long, long, long.
the old gin that is my friend
told me he suffered a thousand ailments
and who drank only whiskey
a whole day had to drink water.
oh ! it was long, long, long, long.
oh ! it was long. …
I know some guys
who for more than twenty years does not forget
the day of a famous landing.
for them, this was the longest day.
oh ! it was long. …
oh ! it was long, long, long, long.
tonight, it's me who, thanks to you,
know of this famous day, the torments.
in a white dress, you don't end up
to say goodbye to mom and dad.
all this is long, long, long, long, oh yes.
all this is long, long, long, long,
oooh ! this is all long, long, long.
all this is long …
all this is long, long, long, long
