Ainsi bas la vida [English translation]

It was a sad night

One of thousands

When that man came to see me to talk

And even if it was late

And people were waiting for me to dine

I knew that it was him I was waiting for

I saw him smile

I saw his eyes tell me

Drowned in a sigh

Stay by my side

I felt his heart

Vibrate at a hundred kilometres per hour

And suddenly, I was scared

When I heard them

Tell me...

You're making your life difficult

You're over-thinking it

There's something off about that guy

And he's broke

Come on, don't be silly

I beg of you, stop

I'm sure that he doesn't reflect

What he really is

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how

You, my pretty suburbanite

Don't grieve

We'll never be separated again

Admit that it's strange

To claim to be able to love

The unknown* and to be rocked

But I saw him smile

I saw his eyes tell me

That he'd love me to death

That he'd cherish me

I felt my heart

Vibrate at a hundred kilometres per hour

And I won't be scared anymore

When you tell me

You're making your life difficult

You're over-thinking it

There's something off about that guy

And he's broke

Come on, don't be silly

I beg of you, stop

I'm sure that he doesn't reflect

What he really is

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

You're making your life difficult

You're over-thinking it

There's something off about that guy

And he's broke

Come on, don't be silly

I beg of you, stop

I'm sure that he doesn't reflect

What he really is

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how life lows

That's how
