The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Bruit De Fonds" by Françoise Hardy.

Lyrics

il me parle des autres
je lui parle de lui
il me parle d’ailleurs
je lui parle d’ici
et je parle et je parle
mais lorsque vient son tour
ou bien il ne dit rien
ou répond à côté
et il est mon mur de pierre
et je suis son bruit de fond
comme je sais très mal
ce qui lui fait du bien
souvent je suis en train
de lui faire du mal
je veux le retenir
il est déjà parti
il veut me faire plaisir
et empire les choses
et il est mon mur de pierre
et je suis son bruit de fond

Lyrics translation

he tells me about others
I tell him about him
he's talking to me, by the way.
I'll talk to him from here.
and I talk and I talk
but when its turn comes
or he doesn't say anything
or responds next
and it's my stone wall
and I'm her background noise
as I know very badly
what's good for her
often I am in train
to hurt her
I want to hold him back
he's already gone.
he wants to please me
and make things worse
and it's my stone wall
and I'm her background noise
