This song was very aptly used by Leos Carax at the end of his brilliant film HOLY MOTORS - song and film came together beautifully, each one enriching the meaning of the other.
To live again We would like to live again. That means: we would like to live the same things again. Maybe walk the long road once more, experience the point of no return and feel ourselves far, so far away from our childhood. Even if we are cold, we still think that if heavens allow, we will want to live again. That means: we would like to live the same things again. Time has not come yet to lie down and rest. We have to do what we like some more, dive again into the liquid cold of these days which are always the same and feel ourselves away, so far away from our childhood. Even if we are cold, even if we cry, we still think that we did not have time to finish the book we started yesterday as we grew up, the book of life, pure and contorted, where we were a salmon swimming up and down, where we were a salmon, splashed by the stream, where we became a faceless passer-by, with long and messy hair, deformed, with long and messy hair, deformed, thinking we would like to live again, again, again.
We think we are at noon, but the day is already closing. Nothing makes sense anymore, the dream is over. We picture ourselves standing up, starting all over again, feeling the sap flow, but this is not possible. No, this is not possible, no, this is not...

It is believed to noon, but the day ends. Nothing means nothing, ended the dream. I'll see you get up again, feeling the sap rise But it can not, No it can not, No it may ...
At the same time it is cold, we cry, we still think We have not had time to finish the book We started yesterday growing, The book of life limpid and grimacing Where we were salmon up and down, Where we were salmon, river splashing, Where we became anonymous way, Hairy, disheveled, misshapen, Hairy, disheveled, misshapen saying We would like to revive revive revive.
Approximately: We would like to relive. It means: We want to live again the same thing. Doing again perhaps the great journey Finger on the point of no return And feel so far, so far from his childhood. At the same time it is cold, we cry we still think What if the sky leaves us we want Relive. It means: We want to live the same thing. The time has not come it rests. It should also repeat what we love, Back into the liquid cold day, always the same And feel so far, so far from his childhood.
unbelievable beautiful sadness, superb lyrics - this song was my personal highlight of the amazing movie holy motors.
I searched this song after watching "Holy Motors". Very impressive lyrics and music
Same 😭🥹👌
same here, it finished the movie beautifully. even if i was bored at times, moved at some others, this ending took me away,
Wow. I almost cried reading that. Didn´t think I could possibly love this song any more, but now I do. Thanks a lot!!!
This movie is God himself... No movie is more LIFE than this one. Holy Motor is more than a masterpiece, it is LIFE.

Life and death. Beautiful! Painful. To live for.
What is your opinion about the movie plot? How did you understand it?
can somebody give a link for the lyrics in English, or translate ?
To live again
We would like to live again.
That means:
we would like to live the same things again.
Maybe walk the long road once more,
experience the point of no return
and feel ourselves far, so far away from our childhood.
Even if we are cold, we still think that
if heavens allow, we will want
to live again.
That means:
we would like to live the same things again.
Time has not come yet to lie down and rest.
We have to do what we like some more,
dive again into the liquid cold of these days which are always the same
and feel ourselves away, so far away from our childhood.
Even if we are cold, even if we cry, we still think that
we did not have time to finish the book
we started yesterday as we grew up,
the book of life, pure and contorted,
where we were a salmon swimming up and down,
where we were a salmon, splashed by the stream,
where we became a faceless passer-by,
with long and messy hair, deformed,
with long and messy hair, deformed, thinking
we would like to live again, again, again.
We think we are at noon, but the day is already closing.
Nothing makes sense anymore, the dream is over.
We picture ourselves standing up, starting all over again, feeling the sap flow,
but this is not possible.
No, this is not possible,
no, this is not...
Wish I could understand the lyrics.

It is believed to noon, but the day ends.
Nothing means nothing, ended the dream.
I'll see you get up again, feeling the sap rise
But it can not,
No it can not,
No it may ...
At the same time it is cold, we cry, we still think
We have not had time to finish the book
We started yesterday growing,
The book of life limpid and grimacing
Where we were salmon up and down,
Where we were salmon, river splashing,
Where we became anonymous way,
Hairy, disheveled, misshapen,
Hairy, disheveled, misshapen saying
We would like to revive revive revive.
Approximately:

It means: We want to live again the same thing.
Doing again perhaps the great journey
Finger on the point of no return
And feel so far, so far from his childhood.
At the same time it is cold, we cry we still think
What if the sky leaves us we want
Relive.
It means:
We want to live the same thing.
The time has not come it rests.
It should also repeat what we love,
Back into the liquid cold day, always the same
And feel so far, so far from his childhood.
