[English]

Hey, hey, tell me again where you were

When everything was hard for me

Tell me again where you were

Yeah

Hey, hey, tell me again where you were

When everything was hard for me

Tell me again where you were

Yeah

Surprised to hear from you

I hadn't had news in a long time

You make me remember

What you call "the good old days"

As far as I can remember

Like a weather vane, I follow the wind

You're coming back, there's no point

I know who you are now

What kind of nerve is that

You had your chance, you blew it

What kind of nerve is that

You thought I was your doll

Hey, hey, tell me again where you were

When everything was hard for me

Tell me again where you were

Yeah

Hey, hey, tell me again where you were

When everything was hard for me

Tell me again where you were

Yeah

Tell me, tell me, hey

Tell me, tell me where you were

Tell me, tell me, hey

Tell me, tell me where you were

Tell me, tell me, hey

Tell me, tell me where you were

Tell me, tell me, hey

Tell me, tell me where you were

You're coming back as if nothing happened

As if you'd never left

Like a mosquito in summer

You think you can ruin my life

I learn that you're in debt

Still, I'm not thrilled about it

But if you came to beg

Listen up, here's what to do

What kind of nerve is that

You had your chance, you blew it

What kind of nerve is that

You thought I was your doll

Hey, hey, tell me again where you were

When everything was hard for me

Tell me again where you were

Yeah

Hey, hey, tell me again where you were

When everything was hard for me

Tell me again where you were

Yeah

Tell me, tell me, hey

Tell me, tell me where you were

Tell me, tell me, hey

Tell me, tell me where you were

Tell me, tell me, hey

Tell me, tell me where you were

Tell me, tell me, hey

Tell me, tell me where you were

Where were you all this time

Were you lost?

I'm just as stubborn

As much as you

Where were you all this time

Were you lost?

I'm just as stubborn

As much as you

Hey, hey, tell me again where you were

When everything was hard for me

Tell me again where you were

Yeah

Hey, hey, tell me again where you were

When everything was hard for me

Tell me again where you were

Yeah

Tell me where, where

You were

Tell me where, where

You were

Tell me where, where

You were

Tell me where, where

You were

...

[French]

Hé, hé, redis-moi où t'étais

Quand pour moi, tout était difficile

Redis-moi où t'étais

Bah ouais

Hé, hé, redis-moi où t'étais

Quand pour moi, tout était difficile

Redis-moi où t'étais

Bah ouais

Surpris d'avoir de tes nouvelles

J'en avais plus depuis longtemps

Tu fais en sorte que j'me rappelle

De c'que t'appelle "le bon vieux temps"

D'aussi loin que je m'en souvienne

Telle une girouette, je suis le vent

Tu reviens, c'est pas la peine

Je sais qui t'es maintenant

C'est quel genre de toupet-et-et

T'as eu ta chance, t'as loupé-é-é

C'est quel genre de toupet-et-et

T'as cru que j'étais ta poupée

Hé, hé, redis-moi où t'étais

Quand pour moi, tout était difficile

Redis-moi où t'étais

Bah ouais

Hé, hé, redis-moi où t'étais

Quand pour moi, tout était difficile

Redis-moi où t'étais

Bah ouais

Redis-moi, redis-moi, hé

Redis-moi, redis-moi où t'étais

Redis-moi, redis-moi, hé

Redis-moi, redis-moi où t'étais

Redis-moi, redis-moi, hé

Redis-moi, redis-moi où t'étais

Redis-moi, redis-moi, hé

Redis-moi, redis-moi où t'étais

Tu reviens comme si de rien n'était

Comme si t'étais jamais parti

Tel un moustique en été

Tu crois venir gâcher ma vie

J'apprends que tu es endetté

Malgré tout, je n'en suis pas ravi

Mais si t'es venu pour gratter

Écoute bien ce qui suit

C'est quel genre de toupet-et-et

T'as eu ta chance, t'as loupé-é-é

C'est quel genre de toupet-et-et

T'as cru que j'étais ta poupée

Hé, hé, redis-moi où t'étais

Quand pour moi, tout était difficile

Redis-moi où t'étais

Bah ouais

Hé, hé, redis-moi où t'étais

Quand pour moi, tout était difficile

Redis-moi, redis-moi, hé

Redis-moi, redis-moi où t'étais

Redis-moi, redis-moi, hé

Redis-moi, redis-moi où t'étais

Où étais-tu tout ce temps

T'étais-tu perdu?

Je suis têtu tout autant

Que toi tu t'es tu

Où étais-tu tout ce temps

T'étais-tu perdu?

Je suis têtu tout autant

Que toi tu t'es tu

Hé, hé, redis-moi où t'étais

Quand pour moi, tout était difficile

Redis-moi où t'étais

Bah ouais

Hé, hé, redis-moi où t'étais

Quand pour moi, tout était difficile
