(French Lyrics)
Au bout de mon souffle
Au bout de mon élan
Je retrouve mes larmes
Mes rires et mon temps
Mes rires et mon temps
Pourtant au Printemps
C’est le moment d’écrire
Pourtant au Printemps
C’est le moment d’aimer
Pourtant au Printemps
C’est le moment d’écrire
Parfois au Printemps
Le temps chasse les larmes
Parfois au Printemps
Le temps chasse l’amour
Parfois au Printemps
Parfois au Printemps
Moi, Je retrouve mon souffle
Parfois au Printemps
Je retrouve mon élan
Je retrouve mon souffle
Je retrouve mon souffle
Je retrouve mon élan
Je retrouve mon souffle
(English Translation)
At the end of my breath
At the end of my momentum
I rediscover my tears
My laughter and my time
Yet in Spring
It’s time to write
Yet in Spring
It's time to love
Sometimes in Spring
Time drives away tears
Sometimes in Spring
Time drives love away
Sometimes in Spring
I find my breath again
Sometimes in Spring
I regain my momentum
I find my breath again
I find my breath again
I regain my momentum
I find my breath again
