lyrics

Je vois du gris
Et le gris c'est joli
Je vois la mer Baltique
Et ses flots inquiétants
Qui s'élancent à la rive
Inlassablement

Je vois du gris
Et c'est le gris joli
Des reflets métalliques
Sur les toits la nuit
La lune qui dérive
Disparait au levant

Je vois du gris
Dans ton humeur chagrine
Tu te poses des questions
T'aimerais être moins con
Mais si tu te débines
Dans tes illusions

C'est encore lui
Quand ton chagrin décline
Le gris bâtit des ponts
Au coeur de nos passions
Et tisse entre les lignes
De nouveaux horizons

Pourquoi le gris
Un peu terne, un peu triste
Incarnerait-il mieux
Que le rouge le feu
Des idées polémiques
Des sentiments fougueux ?

Parce que le gris
C'est joli
C'est le gris de tes yeux
Qui allume le feu
De mes envies
De mon rêve amoureux.

*****
I see grey
And grey is beautiful
I see the Baltic sea
And its threatening waves
Dashing against the shore
Tirelessly

I see grey
And it's the same pretty grey
As the metallic reflections
On the roofs at night
The drifting moon
Disappears in the rising sun

I see grey
In your mournful mood
You take a good look at yourself
You would like to be less of a dumbass
But you prefer to escape
Into your illusions

It's grey again
When your sorrows go downhill
Grey builds bridges
At the heart of our passions
And weaves between the lines
New horizons

Why should grey
A bit dull, a bit sad
Embody the fire
Of controversial ideas
And ardent feelings
Better than red?

Because grey
Is pretty
It is the grey of your eyes
That lights the fire
Of my desires
Of my fantasies.
