Un ange dans le ciel [English translation]

Dear Vivi, I'm writing this letter for you, full of loneliness

Like a lost soul, as usual

Ever since you've left

Ever since you disappeared

It's not the same anyomre

I've lost my Queen

And hence my whole kingdom is empty

My face also turned wrinkled, and my heart closed itself

That morning a stuff in me broke

And even if I answer "I'm fine, thanks"

I have a kind of bad taste of inertia in my mouth

I try to mask it but that's hard, Vivi, yeah I swear you, that's fucking hard

I'm feeling like nothing exists anymore, I'm afraid in fact

Since your eyes haven't been looking at me, nothing has happened

I don't feel really... I know yeah

And that's something hard for me to live

I have trouble after trouble, and finally you're no more here

What do I have left beside memories, tons of spoilt photos

And your smile, fixed for a too long time?

I just can't anymore, at least not in the same way

So every day I kill myself even a little more than the day before

And I kill time, sometimes in a bad way

From up there [in Heaven], you can feel it, I know

But I miss you, baby, I miss you

(chorus)

An angel in Heaven

Yeah, Lord, welcome one more angel

An angel in Heaven

Vivi, I don't tell you "farewell" but "see you soon"

An angel in Heaven

One more angel

An angel in Heaven

Vivi, for you I made my feather [for writing] cry

You and me did everything

You were always ready to give me your oxygene whenever you felt that I was smothering

You were ready to kill if anyone did me harm

Even ready to give me the moon, if you wanted it

We grew up together, build our lifes together

Went through the worst moments

We wanted to get old together though we weren't a couple anymore

We didn't give a damn, that's what we aimed

Do you remember our giggles, our first moments, your smile

The noiseless moments that meant everything?

And we could feed each other

Yeah, I was you, you were me so much

And our relatives and our mates could see it

You were my bowels, my motor and my solution to that all

So since then I've been killing time, sometimes in a bad way

A from up there, you can feel it, baby

But I miss you

(chorus)

What more can I say

Beside the fact that I'm not the only one missing you?

It's an abyss that you left, Vivi

Do you know that today you don't only haunt my nights?

For Fatou as well there's no summer anymore

Don't worry, Vivi, no don't worry

We'll hold our heads high

I know you'd have liked us to be stronger

So we'll do whatever it takes to get over it

Baby, don't worry

(chorus x2)
