Je Vole

My dear parents, I'm leaving
I love you but I'm leaving
You won't have a child anymore
Tonight

I'm not running away, I'm flying
Understand well, I'm flying
Without smoke, without alcohol
I fly, I fly

She was watching me yesterday
Worried, troubled, my mother
As if she felt it, in fact she suspected
Heard

I said I was fine, looking completely serene
She acted like nothing, and my helpless father
Smiled
Not looking back, moving away a little more
There's the Gard, another station and finally, the Atlantic

My dear parents, I'm leaving
I love you but I'm leaving
You won't have a child anymore
Tonight

I'm not running away, I'm flying
Understand well, I'm flying
Without smoke, without alcohol
I fly, I fly

I wonder on my way
If my parents suspect
That my tears have flowed
My promises and the desire
To move forward

Just believe in my life
All that is promised to me
Why, where and how
In this train that moves away
Every moment

It's strange, this cage
That blocks my chest
I can't breathe anymore
It prevents me from singing

My dear parents, I'm leaving
I love you but I'm leaving
You won't have a child anymore
Tonight

I'm not running away, I'm flying
Understand well, I'm flying
Without smoke, without alcohol
I fly, I fly
I fly, I fly
