Original Lyrics
Translation in French
verse
Someone said they left together
Quelqu'un a dit qu'ils étaient partis ensemble
I ran out the door to get her
J'ai couru dehors pour la rattraper
She was holding hands with Trevor
Elle tenait la main de Trevor
Not the greatest feeling ever
Ce n'est pas la meilleure des sensations
Said, "Pull yourself together
Dis ressaisis-toi
You should try your luck with Heather"
Tu devrais tenter ta chance avec Heather
Then I hope they slept together
Et j'ai entendu qu'ils avaient couché ensemble
Oh, the less I know the better
Oh moins j'en sais, mieux c'est
The less I know the better
Moins j'en sais, mieux c'est
chorus
Oh my love, can′t you see yourself by my side?
Oh mon amour, ne ne t'imagines pas à mes côtés ?
No surprise when you're on his shoulder like every night
Ce n'est pas surprenant quand tu es sur son épaule chaque nuit
Oh my love, can′t you see that you're on my mind?
Oh mon amour, ne vois-tu pas que je t'ai en tête
Don't suppose we could convince your lover to change his mind
Je ne pense pas qu'on puisse convaincre ton amant de changer d'avis
So goodbye
Donc au revoir
verse
She said, "It′s not now or never
Elle a dit c'est pas maintenant ou jamais
Wait ten years, we′ll be together"
Attends dix ans, on sera ensemble
I said, "Better late than never
J'ai dit mieux vaut tard que jamais
Just don't make me wait forever"
Ne me fais pas attendre éternellement"
Don′t make me wait forever
Ne me fais pas attendre éternellement
Don't make me wait forever
Ne me fais pas attendre éternellement
chorus
Oh my love, can′t you see yourself by my side?
Oh mon amour, ne ne t'imagines pas à mes côtés ?
I don't suppose you could convince your lover to change his mind
Je ne pense pas que tu puisses convaincre ton amant de changer d'avis
verse
I was doing fine without ya
J'allais très bien sans toi
′Til I saw your face, now I can't erase
Jusqu'à ce que je vois ton visage, que je ne peux pas effacer à présent
Giving in to all his bullshit
Céder à toutes ces conneries
Is this what you want? Is this who you are?
Est-ce que ça ce que tu veux, est-ce que c'est ça que tu es ?
I was doing fine without ya
J'allais très bien sans toi
'Til I saw your eyes turn away from mine
Jusqu'à ce que je vois tes yeux se détourner des miens
Oh, sweet darling, where he wants you
Oh ma bien aimée, où il te veut
Said, "Come on Superman, say your stupid line"
Allez superman, dis la ta réplique stupide
outro
Said, "Come on Superman, say your stupid line"
Allez superman, dis la ta réplique stupide
Said, "Come on Superman, say your stupid line"
Allez superman, dis la ta réplique stupide
