Juste pour me souvenir [English translation]

When you blow on the embers

The wind starts wandering

Whirling against the cliff

Tormented by the tide

Those are not tears

Nor even dew

That my face is calling for

But just a bit of mist

A bit of water and salt

Just to remember

That beyond the clouds in the sky

Your smile is hiding out

Chorus:

Just a bit of water on my lips

Just to remember

That bitter last kiss

Just before you ran away

Just tell me that you're here

Buried into the ocean

Into the arms of a mermaid

Who will sing to you all night long

Sing to you all night long

I walk on the shore

Where boats run aground

But the tide never gives

Our men back to us

The old lit lighthouse

Sharp as a knife

Reminds us that Saint Cast had

Left his wife at home,

Walking on the sand

Just to remember

That beyond the waves in the sky

His smile is hiding out

Chorus

The ocean that took you away

Throws his foam to my feet

Will I ever be able to forgive him

Chorus
