LITERAL TRANSLATION
*** UNOFFICIAL ***
Pursued, I've reached the hills
I've taken refuge in the wilderness
I've shaken off the hunting dogs
covered up my tracks
Disguised (faked?!) my escape
My suitcases are empty, my heart is light
Light
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never ever wanna leave you
Never ever wanna leave you
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you
New York I'm sorry, I loved you so 3
But I have to go 3
Your infinite displays,
your golden horizons
I want to do without it
So say the Nymphs, I'll dress the wounds
Of the shy big cats, the wounded swans
Wounded
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never ever wanna leave you
Never ever wanna leave you
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never ever wanna leave you
Never ever wanna leave you
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh-ahh
My suitcases are empty, my heart is light
Light
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never ever wanna leave you
Never ever wanna leave you
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never ever wanna leave you
Never ever wanna leave you
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh

Poursuivie 2, j'ai gagné les collines
J'ai pris le maquis
Semé les chiens de chasse,
effacé mes traces
Maquillé ma fuite
Mes valises sont vides, mon coeur léger
Léger
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never ever wanna leave you
Never ever wanna leave you
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you
New York I'm sorry, I have to go 3
And I loved you so 3
Tes vitrines infinies, tes horizons dorés,
Je veux m'en passer
Auprès des Hespérides 4, j'irai panser
De grands félins timides, des cygnes blessés
Blessés
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never ever wanna leave you
Never ever wanna leave you
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never ever wanna leave you
Never ever wanna leave you
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh-ahh
Mes valises sont vides, mon coeur léger
Léger
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never ever wanna leave you
Never ever wanna leave you
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never ever wanna leave you
Never ever wanna leave you
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
Never wanna leave you ... ooh
1 Album version.
2 Note final "e" so SHE is being pursued
3 Reversal of lyrics here between the text
on the official YouTube page
versus what is sung on the
released Album version.
New York I'm sorry, I loved you so
but I have to go
4Three Greek nymphs, daughters of Evening
who delight in singing,
guarding a tree of golden apples
(which bestow immortality),
a gift to Hera on her marriage to Zeus
from the earth goddess Gaia.
(echoes of Eve and Temptation ... )
Heracles (Roman Hercules) killed their
guardian dragon Ladon
and stole the apples as his 11th Labour
REFLECTION: a complementary
complimentary interpretation...
*** UNOFFICIAL ***
Pursuing, will they ever find me
Set free remake me
Somewhere lost have they passed
Erasing my past
Making a clean sweep
My worries don't feed, my cares leaving
Leaving
N'oser pas te quitter ... ooh
N'oser pas te quitter ... ooh
N'oser pas te quitter ... ooh
N'oser pas te quitter ... ooh
N'oser jamais moi te quitter
N'oser jamais moi te quitter
N'oser pas te quitter ... ooh
N'oser pas te quitter
New York désolée, je t'ai aimé
S'aimer me jeter
Replay dreams' symphony, desiring far away
Golden a promise
To stay desperate to flee, who can I save
Grounded hounded like me, a scene fading
Fading
N'oser pas te quitter ... ooh
N'oser pas te quitter ... ooh
N'oser pas te quitter ... ooh
N'oser pas te quitter ... ooh
N'oser jamais moi te quitter
N'oser jamais moi te quitter
N'oser pas te quitter ... ooh

My worries don't feed, my cares leave me
Leave me
