Vanessa Paradis "Jackadi" lyrics

Translation to:en

Jackadi

«Carpe Diem» de bon matinSa main sur la mienneJ’oublie ce que je saisMême ce qui m’attendC’est lui qui m’emmène

Au large on fredonneDes airs à contretempsAu temps on se cramponneRèvisant les caprices du vent

Jackadi «viens»Jack a sa philosophie«Sais-tu seulement ce que sera demain?Oubile-le pour aujourd’hui»

Mon capitaine a ses raisonsEt ses façons quotidiennesJe n’y résiste pasMême si j’essaie, même si je peineC’est lui qui m’entraine

Au large on entonneDes airs à contre-courantFacilement on se cantonneAux sifflements du vent

Jackadi «viens»

Jacksaid

"Carpe diem" early in the morningHis hand on mineI forget what I knowEven what is awaiting meHe's the one taking me away

At sea we humTunes on the off-beat1To time we cling tightlyRevising the wind's whims

Jacksaid "come"Jack has his own philosophy"Do you even know what tomorrow will bring?Forget about it for today"

My captain has his reasonsAnd his daily habitsI don't resistEven if I try, even if I struggleHe's the one leading me away

At sea we intoneTunes on the off-beatWe easily confine ourselvesTo the wind's whistling

Jacksaid "come"
