Lyrics & Translation

[French]

[English]

Cojo El Tren . . Y Pienso En Ti

I miss the train... And I think of you

Donde Estas Tu

Where are you

J'ai Besoin De Faire Un Break

I need to take a break

Je Veux Traverser La Mer

I want to cross the sea

Et Degager De La . . Cordillere

And get away from the mountain range

En Regardant Devant Moi

While looking ahead

Pas De Plafond Dans Le Ciel

There's no ceiling in the sky

De Chez Toi, Est-Ce Que Tu Vois . . Le Soleil

From your place, do you see... the sun

Rien Ne Peut Briser . . Ce Lien

Nothing can break... this bond

Je Prends Le Train

I'm taking the train

Celuin Qui Traverse Les Plaines

The one that crosses the plains

Sur Le Chemin, J'oublie Ma Peine

On the road, I forget my pain

Pense A Moi . . Pense A Moi

Think of me... think of me

A Nos Vies Paralleles

To our parallel lives

C'est Le Destin Si Je Rencontre Une Ame Belle

It's destiny if I meet a beautiful soul

Et Toi Au Coin D'une Rue Pareil

And you around the corner of a street just like that

Pense A Moi . . Pense A Moi

Think of me... think of me

A Nos Vies Paralleles . . Nos Vies Paralleles

To our parallel lives... our parallel lives

Cojo El Tren Y Pienso En Ti

I miss the train... And I think of you

Donde Estas Tu

Where are you

Comme Une Enfant, Je Regarde

Like a child, I watch

Un Condor Qui Prend Le Vent

A condor taking the wind

Et Qui Sait A Quoi Tu Penses

And knowing what you're thinking

La Maintenant

Right now

Cette Nuit, Poseras-Tu Les Yeux

Tonight, will you lay your eyes

Sur La Meme Comete Que Moi

On the same comet as mine

Ya Des Reves Qu'on Fait A Deux

There are already dreams we share

Sous Les Draps

Under the sheets

Rien Ne Peut Driser, Ce Lien

Nothing can break this bond

Je Prends Le Train

I'm taking the train

Celuin Qui Traverse Les Plaines

The one that crosses the plains

Sur Le Chemin, J'oublie Ma Peine

On the road, I forget my pain

Pense A Moi . . Pense A Moi

Think of me... think of me

A Nos Vies Paralleles

To our parallel lives

C'est Le Destin Si Je Rencontre Une Ame Belle

It's destiny if I meet a beautiful soul

Et Toi Au Coin D'une Rue Pareil

And you around the corner of a street just like that

Pense A Moi . . Pense A Moi

Think of me... think of me

A Nos Vies Paralleles . . Nos Vies Paralleles

To our parallel lives... our parallel lives

Esperanza, Me Recuerdo

Hope, I remember

De Los Dias Felices Contigo

The happy days with you

Estoy Cansado, Quiero Verte, Cojo El Tren Dondes Estas Tu

I'm tired, I want to see you, I miss the train

C'est Le Destin Si Je Rencontre Une Ame Belle

Where are you

Et Toi Au Coin D'une Rue Pareil

It's destiny if I meet a beautiful soul

Pense A Moi . . Pense A Moi

And you around the corner of a street just like that

A Nos Vies Paralleles . . Nos Vies Paralleles

Think of me... think of me

...

To our parallel lives... our parallel lives
