FR:
Quand mes pensées vont parfois,
Vers des lieux distants

Là ou j’étais autrefois

Je vois palpitant


paraître un pays au-delà du grand océan

paraître des bribes de joie,

de tendresse
je ne pourrai oublier les couleurs,

le vent
les gens, la sérénité,

le
bonheur présent
là-bas
je pouvais ralentir le tempo le temps

je chantais à en ravir la paresse

comme autrefois,

comme autrefois
en douceur

rechercher la cadence
comme autrefois,

comme autrefois
lentement pour trouver résonance



si mon passé quelques fois m’est si apaisant

c’est qu’il recèle l’émoi d’un ailleurs distant


là-bas je savais que l’on peut sourire autrement


je chantais fou de joie, de tristesse



comme autrefois, comme autrefois

en douceur rechercher la cadence
comme autrefois,

comme autrefois
lentement pour trouver résonance

ENG:
When my thoughts go sometimes
To distant places
Where I once was
I see a land
a land beyond the great ocean
brief glimpses of joy, of tenderness
I can't forget the colors, the wind
the people, the serenity, the happiness of the moment
over there I could slow down the tempo of time
I would sing to the joy of idleness

as in days gone by, as in days gone by
gently in search of the cadence
as in days gone by, as in days gone by
slowly to find resonance


if my past is sometimes so soothing to me
it's because it conceals the stirrings of a distant elsewhere
there I knew that one could in a different way
i would sing crazy with joy, with sadness

as in days gone by, as in days gone by
gently in search of the cadence
as in days gone by, as in days gone by
slowly to find resonance

ENG:
Today, tomorrow always together like sand the sun and the breeze

in Copacabana Rio
Like walking along the beach with no care in the world
with you hand in hand

in Copacabana Rio

Sidewalks of black and white

making our love take flight
Soaring above the trees a mellow melody that we can sing
This bossa divine nova
Well that look so deep in your eyes sets my heart aglow

I’m in love

Under this night moonlit sky I dream of your smile I cannot deny its (like) Copacabana Rio
You see you’re my Destiny, my comic relief my blessed release like Copacabana Rio

Time and the sea fly by, knowing we can rely
On the shelter we create,

no one can penetrate our passion entwined

Our bossa nova divine
Well that look deep in your eyes sets my heart aglow

I’m in love

I ain’t come to flex but I’m bout it,
They said they was next but I doubt it,
It come in, I spend I don’t count in,
Cash in & cash out, I’m well rounded,
Cuz we bouncing around bouncing around bounce,
Rolling around rolling around roll,
Coasting around coasting around coast,
Strolling around strolling around stroll.

I got that bounce indeed,
Took the game by surprise, they account for me,
I need a her over there and an ounce of,
I got that dog me, so come bounce with me,
Fresh like I just came out the package,
They gon try but nah they can’t match it,
I came back outside and they lacking,
I came back outside to get active,
Said you was rider,
Tell me is you sliding.

You lost yourself in a dozen ways,
Just tryn’a keep up with the passing days,
I dropped my head, when I felt the same,
But now I've got this feeling that’s,
Holding on to me,
I don't know how you feel inside,
But I can help you let go if you feel alright,
You've got my attention if you want it,
I'll make a promise, we're like a satellite,
And we've got something now we're taking off,
We can find the space to make it light.

We'll find the views above the clouds,
No you won’t start falling if you don't look down,
You found a way to make it out,
And now I've got this feeling that’s,
Holding on to me,
I don't know how you feel inside,
But I can help you let go if you feel alright,
You've got my attention if you want it,
I'll make a promise, we're like a satellite,
We've got something that could set the sky alight,
I can help you let go if you feel alright,
You've got my attention if you want it,
I'll make a promise, we're like a satellite,
And We've got something now we're taking off,
We can find the space to make it light.

Whoa,
Whoa.

Count your blessings,
Happy endings,
Lasting for all time.

One and one makes two,
Just me and you,
Gonna dance all night,
Till the morning light.

One and one makes two,
Stuck like glue,
Feels so right,
When you hold me tight.
