Mais pourtant - Coralie Clement, Daniel Lorca

Tu fais comme te dit ton père et sur les yeux, tu as des œillères

Tu dis souvent «tout baigne, tout baigne» mais pourtant…

Tu m’as mis dans des galères, sans même fournir la petite cuillère

Tu dis souvent «tout roule, tout roule» mais pourtant…

Un soir, tu t’endors, au matin, quand tu ouvres les yeux

Autour de toi, il n’y a rien que ce vide qui te ressemble un peu

Tu pensais avoir conquis les affaires, les amours, la vie

Tu dis souvent «je touche du bois» mais pourtant…

Tu voulais une paire d’enfants pour mieux t’en plaindre sur le divan

Tu dis souvent «je croise les doigts» mais pourtant…

Un soir, tu t’endors, au matin, quand tu ouvres les yeux

Autour de toi, il n’y a rien que ce vide qui te ressemble un peu

Mais pourtant… Pourtant, pourtant

You do as your father tells you and on your eyes you have blinkers

You often say "everything goes, everything goes" but yet...

You got me in trouble, didn't even provide the teaspoon

You often say "everything is rolling, everything is rolling" but yet...

One night you fall asleep, in the morning when you open your eyes

Around you, there's nothing but this emptiness that looks a bit like you

You thought you had conquered business, love, life

You often say "knock on wood" but yet...

You wanted a pair of kids so you better complain on the couch

You often say "fingers crossed" but yet...

One night you fall asleep, in the morning when you open your eyes

Around you, there's nothing but this emptiness that looks a bit like you

But yet... Yet, yet
