Et Si Lyrics in English Shy'm

Lendemains literally translates to "tomorrows" or "days after". While "demain" (tomorrow) is common, the plural form lendemains is more poetic and often refers to the future or what lies ahead, especially in a hopeful or uncertain sense.

In the song, Shy'm sings, "Si l'on pouvait d'un coup de crayon Dessiner nos lendemains" (If we could with a stroke of a pencil Draw our tomorrows). This evokes a beautiful image of shaping one's future, making lendemains a captivating and thought-provoking word that goes beyond a simple calendar day.

What if love could freeze time? In “Et Si,” French pop star Shy’m wonders how fragile or forever a relationship can be. She flips through hopeful yeses, hesitant maybes, and heartbreaking nos, just like turning the pages of a photo album. Every verse asks the big “What if…?”—What if feelings never faded, seasons never changed, and a single snapshot could hold two people together for life?

Yet beneath the dreamy questions lies a gentle reality check. Leaves fall, links break, and tomorrow’s answers are never guaranteed. Shy’m’s voice balances nostalgia with optimism, reminding us that even if we cannot stop the clock, we can still treasure each shared moment. Listen closely, and you will hear both the ache of impermanence and the thrill of possibility—perfect fuel for practicing English while pondering love’s timeless “ifs.”
