Comme si c'était hier [English translation]

From this strange journey, I come back tired

I had seen them all, those bad omens

The flying birds had taken me hostage

I pretended nothing was happening

I wanted to be nice a little too much

Love me

As if it were yesterday

As if the war had never

Turned us into its prey

Love me

As if it were uesterday

As if the sea had never

Seen our fright

From this strange journey, I come back disguted

The flying rats attacked our shores

Angels shouted it, made the storm fall down on us

I pretended nothing was happening

I wanted to be nice a little too much

Love me

As if it were yesterday

As if the war had never

Turned us into its prey

Love me

As if it were uesterday

As if the sea had never

Seen our fright

I let all my rage fall down

Without warning, I defiled the page

Of this story, which was supposed to be

The perfect union between two beings

The lovers always persist

In wanting to be even stronger

Even greater than a god

While at the same time forgetting to be happy

Love me

As if it were yesterday

As if the war had never

Turned us into its prey

Love me

As if it were uesterday

As if the sea had never

Seen our fright
