Je voudrais tant que tu sois là [English translation]

I wish so much which you were there,

To tell you my loneliness.

To tell you my weariness

In knowing that now you don't care.

I wish so much which you were there

To tell you what's my hunger.

And the price upfront that I pay

To have you just mine one day.

Flowers don't grow in my desert,

Nor the oasis, much less breeze.

What if you'd come more often

It would put my heart at ease.

My sweetheart:

I wish so much which you were there

To wake up my dead flowers.

Like a complaint, your silence

Comes talk about your absence.

I wish so much which you were there.

At the hour when the clouds pass,

It would thus expand my space,

This, just in snuggle up closer.

Flowers don't grow in my desert,

Nor the oasis, much less breeze.

What if you'd come more often

You'd understand why I freeze.

Because I freeze!

I wish so much which you were there

To put red on my roses.

And so that be useful somewhere;

These words that I cry could appease.

I wish so much which you were there,

To share the closed chamber

Where my future takes its time,

In waiting time you will be there.

In this limited universe

Where thing's empty, without interest

I could finally get my half

Close to you for whom I was born.

You who don't love me enough.
