Je suis le même [English translation]

I'm just the same

as you used to know

the very same person

that used to move you

I'm the same man

who wanted you,

who in spite of himself

disappointed you

I'm just the same

as you used to love.

Nothing better, but nothing worse,

My heart is the same, no matter what you say [about it]

full of gauche tenderness -

I still feel the same about you

I'm just the same

as you used to know

who today admits to

feeling lost

I'm the same man

who wanted you

serving his sentence as

like a poor lost soul [lit: poor lost lad]

I'm the same man,

Who loved you

who swears to you he hasn't changed

I am the same man

Who loved you

I am just the same

as you used to know

- I was the one

you believed in

I am the same man

That wanted you

You are for him

The only refuge [lit:safety]

I'm just the same

as you used to love.

Nothing better, but nothing worse,

My heart is the same, no matter what you say

full of tenderness and haste

I still feel the same about you

I'm the same man

you used to know

who today admits to

feeling lost

I'm the same man

who wanted you

serving his sentence as

like a poor lost soul [lit: poor lost lad]

I'm the same man,

That loved you

who swears to you he hasn't changed

'Cause I'm just the same

as you used to know -

who today admits to

feeling lost

The same man

who wanted you

now lays his soul at your feet

I'm the same man,

That loved you

who swears to you he hasn't changed

I'm just the same

I'm just the same

I'm the same man you used to love...
