Francis [English translation]

Francis, you have so many things to say

But they all stay locked away

And when you don't know what to say anymore

You begin to cry

But your audience doesn't see that

You encourage them to dream, while you watch on

Francis, the words stay stuck in front of this girl who asks for

Nothing more than to be loved

You, you don't know how to go about it

Your throat tightens and your heart beats so fast

When your eyes are on her

But me, I'll never forget you and I count on you

To come to the aid

Of those who feel for you, what you write in your songs for her

Francis, I'm going soon and I think very, very hard of you

While my fingers play the piano for all I owe you

And remind you that you can have the world at your feet

If you don't let yourself get knocked down by those that leave you to the side

And me, I'll never forget you and I count on you

To come to the aid

Of those who feel for you, what you write in your songs for her

But me, I'll never forget you and I count on you

To come to the aid

Of those who feel for you, what you write in your songs for her
