Lyrics
Elle attend que le monde change
Elle attend que changent les temps
Elle attend que ce monde étrange
Se perde et que tournent les vents
Inexorablement, elle attend
Elle attend que l'horizon bouge
Elle attend que changent les gens
Elle attend comme un coup de foudre
Le règne des anges innocents
Inexorablement, elle attend
Elle attend que la grande roue tourne
Tournent les aiguilles du temps
Elle attend sans se résoudre
En frottant ses couverts en argent
Inexorablement, elle attend
Et elle regarde des images
Et lit des histoires d'avant
D'honneur et de grands équipages
Où les bons sont habillés de blanc
Et elle s'invente des voyages
Entre un fauteuil et un divan
D'eau de rose et de passion sage
Aussi purs que ces vieux romans
Aussi grands que celui qu'elle attend
Lyrics translation
She waits for the world to change she waits for the times to change she waits for this strange world to get lost and the winds spin inexorably, she waits she waits for the horizon to move she waits for the people to change she waits like a lightning bolt the reign of the innocent angels inexorably, she waits she waits for the ferris wheel to spin the needles of time she waits without solving herself by rubbing her silver cutlery inexorably, she waits and she looks at pictures and reads stories of front of honor and great crews where the good are dressed in white and she invents journeys between an armchair and a couch of rose water and passion wise as pure as these old novels as big as the one she expects
