Éblouie par la nuit [English translation]

Blinded by the night by deadly rays of light

Brushing all the cars, with pupils small like pins

I've waited a hundred years in these black and white streets

You where whistling when you came

Blinded by the night by deadly rays of light

Kicking cans around, adrift and lost at sea

If I lost my head in there, I have loved you and done worse

You where whistling when you came

Blinded by the night by deadly rays of light

Do I have to love my life or watch it pass me by

Of all our nights of toking, nothing much is left

But ashes in the morning sun

In this subway, filled with fears of life

At the next stop, little European,

Run your hand, run it down beneath my heart

Blinded by the night by deadly rays of light

A last lap with death waiting at the end

I've waited a hundred years in these black and white streets

You where whistling when you came
