Lyrics
Mon bateau est tout bleu dans les reflets de la lune
J’avance sur la mer calme
Dites-moi, voyez-vous dj la ligne des dunes
Qui borde la maison de th Fumes en marche, tout me pousse
Sur sa table ses lettres doivent s’envoler
Amour en marche, tout me pousse
Ses cheveux noirs aux branches doivent s’emmler
Les bambous seront lourds autour de la maison
Elle portera sans doute un kimono de coton
J’y pense chaque jour en regardant la maison
Les marins chuchotaient cette nuit sur le pont
O va le capitaine? Il a perdu la raison
Monsieur un tlgramme. Et j’ai d prendre la mer
Mais le voyage fut si long
Elle est reste mon rve et je reviens vers la terre
A-t'elle su compter les saisons?
Fumes en marche, tout me pousse
Sur sa table ses lettres doivent s’envoler
Amour en marche, tout me pousse
Ses cheveux noirs aux branches doivent s’emmler
Les bambous seront lourds autour de la maison
Elle portera sans doute un kimono de coton
J’y pense chaque jour en regardant la maison
Les marins chuchotaient cette nuit sur le pont
Ou va le capitaine? A-t-il perdu la raison?
Amour en marche, tout me pousse
On teint la lanterne dans la maison de th Ce sont des larmes qu’on touffe
Oh monsieur Puccini mais que s’est-il donc pass?
Les bambous sont fans autour de la maison
Du sang rouge a fleuri au kimono de coton
Un papillon est mort, un ptale est tomb
Et les marins chuchotent au matin sur le pont
D’o vient le capitaine? Il a perdu la raison
D’o vient le capitaine? Il a perdu la raison
D’o vient le capitaine? Il a perdu la raison
D’o vient le capitaine? Il a perdu la raison.
Lyrics translation
My boat is all blue in the moonlight
I advance on the calm sea
Tell me, do you see dj the line of the dunes
Who borders the House of th Fumes walking, everything pushes me
On his table his letters must fly
Love on the move, everything pushes me
Her black hair with branches must get tangled
Bamboos will be heavy around the House
She will probably wear a cotton kimono
I think about it every day looking at the House
The sailors whispered that night on the deck
O is the captain going? He lost his mind
Sir, a tlgramme. And I d take the sea
But the journey was so long
She's staying my rve and I'm coming back to Earth
Did she know how to count the seasons?
Smoke running, everything pushes me
On his table his letters must fly
Love on the move, everything pushes me
Her black hair with branches must get tangled
Bamboos will be heavy around the House
She will probably wear a cotton kimono
I think about it every day looking at the House
The sailors whispered that night on the deck
Where's the captain going? Has he lost his mind?
Love on the move, everything pushes me
We dye the lantern in the House of th these are tears that we tuffe
Oh, Mr. Puccini, what happened then?
Bamboos are fans around the House
Red blood flowered in cotton kimono
A butterfly is dead, a ptal is tomb
And sailors whisper in the morning on the deck
Where did the captain come from? He lost his mind
Where did the captain come from? He lost his mind
Where did the captain come from? He lost his mind
Where did the captain come from? He's lost his mind.
