Francis [English translation]

Francis, you have so many things to say

But all of it remains locked up inside

And when you no longer know what to say

You start crying

But your public doesn't get to see it

You conduce them to dream, while you look at them

Francis, the words remain stuck in front of this girl who is quite willing

To be loved

You don't go the right way about it

A lump in your throat, your heart's beating faster and faster

While your eyes are on her

But I won't forget you and I trust you

To help you

Those who feel for you what you write in your songs for her

Francis, I'm leaving soon and you're really really in my thoughts

While my fingers play all that I owe you on the piano

And remember that you can have the whole world at your feet

If you don't let those who put you aside bring you down

But I won't forget you and I trust you

To help you

Those who feel for you what you write in your songs for her

But I won't forget you and I trust you

To help you

Those who feel for you what you write in your songs for her
