All my friends are gone,
My heart has moved places.
My holidays are always in Paris
My projects are to carry on this way
My loves are all invented.
If, mum, if
If, mum, if
Mum if you could see my life.
I cry and I laugh,
Yes, mum, yes,
But my future remains dark
And so does my heart.
And time flies by like a train
And I'm seating at the window.
I am so blind that tomorrow
Happiness may come by
Without me recognizing it.
If, mum, if
If, mum, if
Mum if you could see my life.
I cry and I laugh,
Yes, mum, yes,
But my future remains dark
And so does my heart.
My heart is comfortable, nice and warm
As I let the turmoils go by.
My desires dim, I turn my back to them
And I fall asleep softly
Without chaos nor feelings.
If, mum, if
If, mum, if
Mum if you could see my life.
I cry and I laugh,
Yes, mum, yes,
But my future remains dark
And so does my heart.
If, mum, if
If, mum, if
Mum if you could see my life.
I cry and I laugh,
Yes, mum, yes,
But my future remains dark
And so does my heart.
