Je voudrais la connaître [English translation]

I would like to get to know her

Find out what she is like

Does she have a good figure?

Is she pretty? I would like...

Oh, I would like to see her

To watch her for a long time

To learn her story,

Her background and her past

Maybe this curiosity

Is strange

- To finally see and accept it

And to stop imagining

I would like to understand

Even if it ruins me

Because she knew how to steal you

Because she has taken my place

I already know her perfume

And her handwriting

This sweetly written note

That lies forgotten in our car

I also want to see the hotel

Whether you put the price

Whether the room was beautiful

And whether the bed was big

Maybe it isn't normal

It's crazy, but it tempts me

This desire to suffer

To the limit, to death

I would like to know everything

And her age and her skin

Everything that's different from us

And what's similar, it's pathetic

And to surprise you when you're with her

When you're funny, when you're sweet

To hear you make your promises

And when you tell her about us

I want to see you again

To watch you in the mirror

And when you kiss her

To see your hips move matador-style

I want your body close to hers

All those forgotten gestures

To find you once again

Just the way I'd always loved you

In this cold, in these ashes

I would like to stay here

And just see and understand

Everything I am not

Hmm... everything I am not

Everything I am not
