Expand description to follow along with the lyrics!
Welcome to my most recent video blog. This is a French adaptation of a song I originally wrote in English. I have practiced it so much in French that I prefer singing it in my adopted second language. :D
This is a rough draft, so we'll see where this goes. Any feedback is welcome!
No I haven't translated some of these lines literally. I moved around a few lines to have things make better sense in English. :)
J'attends (I'm Waiting)
Lyrics (c) 2012 by Ann Feld
J'attends que mon coeur se batte (I'm waiting for my heart to beat)
J'attends un clair de lune (I'm waiting for a moonlit night)
J'attends que mon âme s'envole (I'm waiting for my soul to fly)
Au bleu de ciel (In the blue of the sky)
J'attends un nouveau rêve (I'm waiting for another dream)
J'attends les ailes d'un ange (I'm waiting for an angel's wings)
J'attends un cerf-volant (I'm waiting for a kite)
Qui m'emportera dans la lumière (That will carry me into the light)
Et là, je le sais (And there, I know)
Ma vie recommencera (My life will begin again)
Pourtant, d'ici là, j'attends (Yet until then, I'm waiting)
J'attends toujours (Forever waiting)
J'attends ouvrir les fenêtres (I'm waiting to open windows)
Sur des mondes jamais vus (On worlds I've never seen)
J'attends les mugissement de la mer (I'm waiting for the roar of the sea)
Ses vagues me porteront (Its waves will carry me)
De cette plage isolée (Away from this lonely beach)
Pour réveiller mon âme (To wake up my soul)
Pour tenir dans les mains (To hold something soft)
Quelquechose de doux (In my hands)
Attendre que mon chagrin (Waiting for my sorrow)
Se fane dans l'infini (To fade into nothing
J'attends, j'attends (I'm waiting, I'm waiting)
J'attends, j'attends (I'm waiting, I'm waiting)
Pourtant, d'ici là, j'attends (Yet until then, I'm waiting)
J'attends toujours (Forever waiting)
Pourtant, d'ici là, j'attends (Yet until then, I'm waiting)
J'attends toujours (Forever waiting)
Toujours, toujours, toujours, toujours (Forever, forever, forever forever)
