Paris Je T'aime



I've never learned french but I had to know the meaning when I heard this lovely song at the end of one of my favorite movies- Paris Je T'aime. The song is sung by Feist, and apparently she has a cute american accent, but it sounds spot on French to me..

Here's the meaning. What a great song

what IS
this bond between us,
that indefinable thing?
Where are those destinies that take shape
and make us inseparable?

we go forward
through/over time
at the behest of the wind...and so...

we live from day to day
our desires, our loves
we go without knowing
we are always
in the same story

what IS
this which separates us,
that brings us together by accident?
why so many goings, so many departures
in this infinite circle?

we go forward
through/over time
at the behest of the wind...and so...

we live from day to day
our desires, our loves
we go without knowing
we are always
in the same story
the same story...
