[English]

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Far away, behind us, with no real reason

You left me yesterday at the end of the season

I don't want to know anymore

We've grown apart

You won't get me anymore, and it's all over

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

I hope you suffer

And that you sleep badly

In the meantime, I’ll write

For tomorrow, the future (for tomorrow, the future)

For tomorrow, the future (for tomorrow, the future)

Out for one night

Just talk to him

Down a hallway

You wanted to go

The hypocrisy of a night

The glasses are broken

Hopes are gone, and our hearts are shattered

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

I hope you suffer

And that you sleep badly

In the meantime, I’ll write

For tomorrow, the future (for tomorrow, the future)

For tomorrow, the future (for tomorrow, the future)

...

Walking alone down the street

Searching for my way

I can't find it anymore

It feels so far away

I’ve forgotten you, you no longer affect me

And I leave to travel, thinking about tomorrow

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Wow, Wow, Waohoh

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

I hope you suffer

And that you sleep badly

In the meantime, I’ll write

For tomorrow, the future (for tomorrow, the future)

For tomorrow, the future (for tomorrow, the future)

...

Far away behind us, with no real reason

You left me yesterday at the end of the season

...

[French]

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yehi

Partie loin derrière sans trop de raisons

Tu m'as laissé hier la fin de la saison

Je n'veux plus savoir

On s'est éloignés

Tu n'vas plus m'avoir et tout est terminé

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yehi

J'espère que tu vas souffrir

Et que tu vas mal dormir

Pendant ce temps j'vais écrire

Pour demain l'avenir (pour demain l'avenir)

Pour demain l'avenir (pour demain l'avenir)

Partie pour un soir

Juste lui parler

Au fond d'un couloir

Tu voulais aller

L'hypocrisie d'un soir

Les verres sont cassés

Envolés les espoirs et nos coeurs défoncés

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yehi

J'espère que tu vas souffrir

Et que tu vas mal dormir

Pendant ce temps j'vais écrire

Pour demain l'avenir (pour demain l'avenir)

Pour demain l'avenir (pour demain l'avenir)

Partie seule dans la rue

Je cherche mon chemin

Je n'le trouve plus

Il me paraît bien loin

Je t'ai oublié, tu n'me fais plus rien

Et je pars voyager en pensant à demain

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yehi

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Waoh, Waoh, Waohoh

Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yeh, Yehi

J'espère que tu vas souffrir

Et que tu vas mal dormir

Pendant ce temps j'vais écrire

Pour demain l'avenir (pour demain l'avenir)

Pour demain l'avenir (pour demain l'avenir)

Partie loin derrière sans trop de raisons

Tu m'as laissé hier la fin de la saison.
