Original text with translation
Johnny Hallyday
Je l’ai inventé tout entier
Il a fini par exister
Je l’ai fabriqué comme j’ai pu
Ce père que je n’ai jamais eu
J’imagine ma main d’enfant
A l’abri dans sa main de grand
Le seul homme en qui j’aurais cru
Ce père que je n’ai jamais eu
On m’a donné, on m’a donné la vie
Tant pis si je ne sais pas qui
Je garderai la part du rêve
J’en referai toute ma vie
N’en parlez pas, n’y touchez pas
Vous qui ne le connaissez pas
Il n’y a qu’en moi qu’il ait vécu
Ce père que je n’ai jamais eu
Il est parti vers un horizon, vers l’oubli
Il dort pour une longue nuit
J’imaginerai tout le reste
Oh!
Et j’imaginerai sa vie
Il était mon premier secret
Et je disais qu’il existait
Et j’ai menti tant que j’ai pu
Pour ce père que je n’ai pas eu
Oh!
Pour ce père que je n’ai pas eu
Oh!
Pour ce père que je n’ai pas eu
I made it all up
He ended up existing
I made it as I could
This father that I never had
I imagine my child's hand
Safe in his great hand
The only man I would have believed in
This father that I never had
I was given, I was given life
Too bad if I don't know who
I'll keep the part of the dream
I will do this all my life
Don't talk about it, don't touch it
You who don't know him
Only in me did he live
This father that I never had
He went to a horizon, to oblivion
He sleeps for a long night
I'll imagine everything else
Oh!
And I'll imagine his life
He was my first secret
And I said there was
And I lied as long as I could
For this father that I did not have
Oh!
For this father that I did not have
Oh!
For this father that I did not have
