Genius English Translations
Pomme - Comme si j’y croyais (English Translation)
As if I believed it, I took the train
For elsewhere and for tomorrow
I kissed two or three girls
A few boys, then I told them no
I'm going there where the wind carries me
I always make in some way
The great journey
A guitar and a few words
Each evening, I start again
My great work
As if I believed it
As if I believed it, I live lives
Free from all sorrow
My days resemble nights
Of other nights that resemble nothing
A few blows, a few touches
I break my ropes, I bite my leash
And I run away
Growing up, is to disappoint a little
We have to work hard if we want to waste our life
As if I believed it
As if I believed it
As if I believed it
Through believing it, it's over
Living in the dark
With only the light and wind as allies
I'm breathless
Without worrying about the days to come
I run across the plains
And this time
No more false starts, no more doubt
No more black cat in my path
Like I believed it
Like I believed it
[Spoken]
It's nighttime, I'm taking the train - the wind carries me for a great journey. The great journey. I flee across the plain, and I run. I'm breathless, as if I believed it
