Quelque Part Lyrics in English Felipecha

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Quelque Part by Felipecha from French to English.
Her face is in tears
Her smile is gone
I look down, too bad
And what if it was my sister
Meanwhile I think about it
And return the favor
The one who broke my heart
It's bad luck's fault
Somewhere or here
Somewhere it's my sister
Somewhere it's here and here is elsewhere
Each one's got their karma
We'd have to whip too many cats
So we pretend
So we do it like that
So we do it like that
Like I didn't see a thing
And if everything was beautiful
We shouldn't stir things up
Walking down the street
We'd see the flaws
Somewhere or here
Somewhere it's my sister
Somewhere it's here and here is elsewhere
We return the favor
And I never think of it again
Anyway I saw nothing
Shouldn't have stirred it up
Stay deaf to the street
Stay in ignorance
Somewhere or here
Somewhere it's my sister
Somewhere it's here and here is elsewhere
And here is elsewhere
And here is elsewhere
And here is elsewhere
And here is elsewhere
And here is elsewhere
And here is elsewhere
And here is elsewhere
And here is elsewhere

SONG MEANING

Quelque Part paints a vivid street-corner moment: the singer notices a stranger crying, instantly looks away, and tells himself it is just bad luck. Yet the haunting line « Quelque part c’est ma sœur » keeps echoing. Felipecha reminds us that the person we ignore could just as easily be family or even ourselves. As the verses loop between “somewhere” and “here,” the song exposes the convenient excuses we use to stay comfortable – blaming chance, talking about karma, pretending we saw nothing while we “return the elevator” of indifference.

Behind its light, acoustic groove, the track is a gentle wake-up call. By repeating « ici est ailleurs » (“here is elsewhere”), Felipecha blurs the borders between people and places, urging us to swap apathy for empathy. The message is clear: every time we look away, we help suffering travel further; every time we face it, we shorten the distance between “us” and “them.”
