Depuis [English translation]

Like a child, I broke open my piggy bank

For that gift I wanted to give you

I don't have a dime, but I find that quite funny

I live on love alone, along with tears and pleasure

Like a schoolboy, I saw you leaving

When parents teach you how to grow up

I understood what our future was

I didn't see it coming, didn't see it coming

I've often thought of you since then

I can't tell myself that it's over

There's something like an empty space

In my bed

I've often thought of you since then

I fall asleep with a memory of you

There's something like an empty space

In my bed

Like a mother, I wanted to hold you back,

To keep you a little longer in my home

Like a friend, I ended up telling you

'Leave tomorrow if you can, I'll always be there'

I've often thought of you since then

I can't tell myself that it's over

There's something like an empty space

In my bed

I've often thought of you since then

I fall asleep with a memory of you

There's something like an empty space

In my bed

Like a soldier, I pretend not to have feelings

And I don't do anything without thinking anymore

My loves are bland and void of desire - And I think of

The past, I conjugate things in the past tense

I've often thought of you since then

I can't tell myself that it's over

There's something like an empty space

In my bed

I've often thought of you since then

I fall asleep with a memory of you

There's something like an empty space

In my bed
