The Ballet Lyrics

Artist: Celine Dion
Album: D'eux

Paroles et musique: Jean-Jacques Goldman

a t'arrive sans crier gare
Au milieu d'une heure incolore

(It happens to you without a warning
In the middle on a colourless hour)

Un geste, une odeur, un regard
Qui comme dchire ton dcor

(A gesture, a smell, a look
Which like tear off your decor)

Tout coup ce coeur qui t'avait presque oubli
Se pointe ta porte et se remet cogner

(Suddenly your heart who almost forgot you
Is showing itself at your door and restart to knock)

Attention, le ballet va commencer

(Attention, the ballet is about to begin)

Tu comprends pas trop c'qui (1) t'arrive
Tu crois d'abord une erreur

(You don't know what's happening to you
You first thing to an error)

Tu l'vites et lui te devine
Entre le dsir et la peur

(You avoid her and she guesses you
Between pleasure and pain)

Tu t'entends lui dire des phrases sans aucun sens
Qu'importe les mots n'ont plus d'importance

(You hear yourself tell her empty phrases
Whatever the words have no more importance)

Car le ballet a commenc

(Because the ballet has begun)

Il met ses plus beaux atours et du miel sur sa voix
Toi tu te fais velours et tes bijoux brillent sur toi
Il te dit pomes et rves de lointains voyages
Tu rponds Florence, peinture, impeccables images

(She's at her best and put honey on her voice
You you make yourself velvet and your jewelry is shining on you
She tells you poetry and dreams of far away trips
You answer Florence, painting, perfect images)

Dames et cavaliers, avancez

(Ladies and knights, step ahead)

Un coup d'oeil son dos, ses hanches, quand s'efface le galantin
Un regard quand elle se penche et laisse deviner un sein
Elle sait dej ses mains, les contours de sa bouche
Le cambr de ses reins, qu'elle a not en douce

(One look at her back, her hips when the galant go away
A look when she bends over and let show a breast
She already knows his hands, the outline of his lips
The curve of his back that she noted gently)

Car le ballet va s'animer

(Because the ballet will animate itself)

Il a su les codes et donn les bons mots de passe
Encore un peu d'alcool et que tombent les cuirasses
Livres les cls des corps enfin les peaux s'embrassent
Et le temps s'arrte tant que dure la grce

(He known the codes and gave the right passwords
A little more alcohol and cuirasses to fall
Body keys delivered finally the skins kiss
And the time stops while grace last)

Car le ballet, est bientt termin
Et la vraie vie, va commencer
Et oui - la vraie vie -

(Because the ballet is almost over
And the real live will begin
Yeah - the real life)
