Vents Contraires [English translation]

Of course we hope,

Never mind the gusts of wind

We open the windows wide

To let light in

Of course, we get lost

Dazzled by the imaginary

We come back down on Earth so soon!

Of course, our hearts get heavy

So it's difficult to stay silent

All the time

To watch dust fall down

Of course, we want to please

Faced with the storm,

We'd still rather have the winds

The headwinds

Are blowing on my nerves [x2]

The sentence is heavy and pretty severe

Making it lighter,

Of course I hope I'll be able to do it

To close our eyes and see things cleared,

To turn the world upside-down

Of course, I get lost

From a beer to another, all by myself

Bursts of laughter at the bottom of the glass

Of course, my heart gets heavy

If we must go back in time,

Instead of following your star,

I'd rather follow the winds

The headwinds

Are blowing on my nerves [x4]
