Prend ton pouls

Il te cale sur le temps

It matches the beat

Tu as l'impression d'être saoul

You feel drunk

Mais tu n'as rien dans le sang

But there's nothing in your blood

Tu aimes l'amour

You love love

Et l'amour te le rends

And love gives you back

Tu tombe amoureux de toi

You fall in love with yourself

Et c'est ça qui est grand

And that's what’s great

Pense un peu à toi

Think a little about yourself

Puis la prochaine étape

Then the next step

Sera de penser à moi

Will be thinking of me

Tu aimes les autres

You love others

Mais tu ne t'aimes pas

But you don't love yourself

Ce n'est pas de ta faute

Alors ne t'oublies pas

So don't forget yourself

Ne te laissera pas le choix

Elle te fera trembler

It will make you shiver

Avec ses accords à dix doigts

Les frissons t'envahissent

Filling you with chills

En commençant par les bras

Starting from your arms

Et quand ton plexus c'est touché

And when your solar plexus is touched

Tu tombes amoureux de toi

You fall in love with yourself

Tu tombes amoureux de toi

You fall in love with yourself
