“What We Ain’t Got”
(Song by Jake Owen / YouTube)
♫ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMWWw2O8f5w&feature=em-share_video_user
We all want what we ain't got (argot)
Our favorite doors are always locked
On a higher hill with a taller top,
We all want what we ain't got.
We ain't happy where we are,
There's greener grass in the neighbor’s yard
A bigger house and a faster car,
We ain't happy where we are.
All I want is what I had,
I'd trade it all just to get her back
She's moving on, but I guess I'm not.
Yeah, we all want what we ain't got.
We all wish it didn't hurt,
When you try your best and it doesn't work
And goodbye's such a painful word,
We all wish it didn't hurt.
-nous voulons tous ce que nous n’avons pas
-fermées à clé
-sur une colline plus haute avec un sommet plus haut
-jardin (American English = yard / British English = garden)
-j’échangerai (donnerai) tout pour la récupérer
-elle continue sa vie, mais moi, je pense que non
-nous aimerions tous que cela ne fasse pas mal
-ça ne marche pas
-et “adieu” est un mot si douloureux
All I want is what I had,
Yeah I'd trade it all just to get her back.
She's moving on, but I guess I'm not.
Yeah We all want what we ain't got.
Woah-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh
All I want is what I had,
Yeah I'd trade it all just to get her back.
She's moving on, but I guess I'm not.
Yeah we all want what we ain't got.
I wanted the world until my whole world stopped,
You know a love like that ain't easily forgot
I guess we all want what we ain't got.
Yeah we all want what we ain't got.
-je voulais le monde (= la lune) jusqu’au moment où
mon monde s’est arrêté
-un amour comme cela n’est pas facilement oublié
-je pense, j’imagine
