Maman [English translation]

Lovers go from bed to bed

In hotels, in parking lots

To flee all this melancholy

The heart of the towns looks dreadful

Blues, phone calls,

Everything wil start over in the spring

Except indelible loves.

Subways are crammed with dreams,

Skyscrapers look down on us

Like a bird behind bars.

I feel like my mind isn't well, mama.

Partying lost its taste, mama.

Look how your daughter is made, mama.

I can't find a meaning to my quest, mama.

That time when bars are filling up,

Meanwhile hearts are emptying.

Those nights when promises are made

As fast as they are unmade.

Blues, phone calls,

Everything wil start over in the spring

Except indelible loves.

Subways are crammed with dreams,

Skyscrapers look down on us

Like a bird behind bars.

I feel like my mind isn't well, mama.

Partying lost its taste, mama.

Look how your daughter is made, mama.

I can't find a meaning to my quest, mama.
