"Si L'On Comptait Les Étoiles" Lyrics

(Joseph Dahan/Gaëtan Roussel/Renée Scroggins)

Si l'on comptait les étoiles jusqu'au petit jour
Si l'on comptait les étoiles...

Baby, come on tell me what's going on.
You say you're happy but you want to move on.
You give me signals, it's so hard to tell.
What can I do? I'm under your spell.
I'm trying hard to understand.
You're schizophrenic, for all I can tell.

On passait notre temps à tourner autour
À faire comme si le vent avait des contours.
Nah Nah, you want to go on, Nah Nah, you want to stay on.
Nah Nah, you want to go on, Nah Nah, you want to stay on.

Confusion, it's got me at bay, do I go, should I run away ?
I'm trying hard to understand, I'm like a fish caught in a net.

On passe notre temps à compter les jours.
Serions-nous si changeants ? Ni contre, ni pour...
Nah Nah, you want to go on, Nah Nah, you want to stay on
Nah Nah, you want to go on.

Si l'on comptait les étoiles jusqu'au petit jour
Si l'on comptait les étoiles...

Sometimes, it seems we're doing so well.
Baby come on tell me, is it something I said ?
Do you look beyond ? Is it just this ? I'm trying hard to understand
Why make me suffer ? If you don't want more
I think it's time to go out the door, I'm trying hard to understand.
Just leave me alone, so I can get on
It's for the best, one day, you'll see...

On passait notre temps à tourner autour
À faire comme si le vent avait des contours.
On passe notre temps à compter les jours
Serions-nous si changeants ? Ni contre, ni pour...

Sometimes, it seems we're doing so well.
Sometimes, it seems it's so hard to tell.
Sometimes, it seems that I'm all alone.
Sometimes, it seems that we can't go on.

Nah Nah, you want to go on, Nah Nah, you want to stay on.
Nah Nah, you want to go on, Nah Nah, you want to stay on.

Si l'on comptait les étoiles jusqu'au petit jour
Si l'on comptait les étoiles...
