Coeur De Pirate – Francis

• 0
  General Comment:This was the first song by Coeur de Pirate I heard, and it still is my favourite; I love the softness of her voice in every song, but this piece touches something very deep in my heart.

  General Comment:This is probably my favourite song by Coeur de Pirate.
  
  The above translation is pretty good, except "ton cœur bat de plus belle" means "your heart beats faster", which makes more sense contextually :)

  General Comment:Well, I'm not very good at French but here's my shot at a translation:
  
  
  Francis you have so much to say
  But it all remains locked up
  And when you do not know what to say anymore
  You start to cry
  But this, your public does not see it
  You encourage it to dream
  While you look at her
  
  Francis the words remain well hidden
  In front of this girl who does not ask
  Any better than to be loved
  But you just do not know how to take yourself there
  Your throat tightens and your heart beats more beautiful
  While your eyes are on her
  
  But I will not forget you
  And I count on you
  To come help
  Those who feel for you
  What you write in
  These songs for her
  
  Francis I am going soon
  And I think very highly of you
  While my fingers on the piano
  Play all that I owe you
  
  And remember that you can
  Have the world at your feet
  If you do not leave yourself to break down
  By those who leave your side
  
  But I will not forget you
  And I count on you
  To come help
  Those who feel for you
  What you write in
  These songs for her

  General Comment:Francis tu as tant de choses à dire
  Mais le tout reste enfermé
  Et quand tu ne sais plus quoi dire
  Tu te mets à pleurer
  Mais ça ton public le voit pas
  Tu l'incites à rêver
  Pendent que toi tu le regardes
  
  Francis les mots restent bien coincés
  Devant cette fille qui ne demande
  Pas mieux que de se faire aimer
  Mais toi tu ne sais pas comment t'y prendre
  Ta gorge se resserre et ton cœur bat de plus belle
  Alors que tes yeux sont sur elle
  
  Mais moi je ne t'oublierai pas
  Et je compte sur toi
  Pour venir en aide
  À ceux qui ressentent pour toi
  Ce que tu écris dans
  Ces chansons pour elle
  
  Francis je m'en vais bientôt
  Et je pense très fort à toi
  Pendant que mes doigts au piano
  Jouent tout ce que je te dois
  
  Et rappelle-toi que te peux
  Avoir le monde à tes pieds
  Si tu te laisses pas abattre
  Par ceux qui te laissent de côté
  
  Mais moi je ne t'oublierai pas
  Et je compte sur toi
  Pour venir en aide
  À ceux qui ressentent pour toi
  Ce que tu écris dans
  Ces chansons pour elle
