If I were a swan, I´d be gone.
If I were a train, I´d be late.
And if I were a good man,
I´d talk with you
More often than I do.

If I were to sleep, I could dream.
If I were afraid, I could hide.
If I go insane, please don´t put
Your wires in my brain.

If I were the moon, I´d be cool.
If I were a rule, I would bend.
If I were a good man, I´d understand
The spaces between friends.

If I were alone, I would cry.
And if I were with you, I´d be home and dry.
And if I go insane,
Will you still let me join in with the game?

If I were a swan, I´d be gone.
If I were a train, I´d be late again.

If I were a good man,
I´d talk with you
More often than I do.

Si

Si j´étais un cygne, je serais bien loin
Si j´étais un train, je serais en retard
Et si j´étais quelqu´un de bien

Je te parlerais plus souvent que je ne le fais

Si je deviens fou
Je vous en prie, ne mettez pas vos fils dans mon cerveau

Si j´étais la lune, je serais serein
Si j´étais une règle, je me plierais
Si j´étais quelqu´un de bien
Je comprendrais les distances entre amis

Si j´étais seul, je pleurerais
Et si j´étais avec toi, je serais à la maison et insipide
Et si je deviens fou
Laissez-moi encore prendre part au jeu

Si j´étais un cygne, je serais bien loin

Si j´étais un train, je serais de nouveau en retard
Et si j´étais quelqu´un de bien
Je te parlerais plus souvent que je ne le fais
