Avec des si...
Françoise Hardy
With ifs...
If you had been more down-to-earth, if I had intimidated you less
If you didn't navigate in your too high spheres
If you didn't hide everything you feel
Me, if I had been less romantic
And if you had impressed me less
If we had dared to put our dreams into practice
If we had dared to talk to each other once
With ifs, ifs, ifs
If we had relied less on appearances
Because you and I lived with people
Who didn't interest us much, I think
But it was the opposite that we pretended
If we had joked less together
About what mattered most to us
But you are like me, and I resemble you
That's how we scared each other
With ifs, ifs, ifs
In short, if we had been completely different
We probably wouldn't have loved each other
We wouldn't have lost by our own fault
So much time for a gesture we didn't make
With ifs, ifs, ifs
