À la folie [English translation]

Madly, I press your body

against my body.

A few golden minutes,

as long as precious matching chords ring1

A fragile ball

Immobile heart

I walk the music

like a tightrope.

Madly, I press your night

against my night.

I stake it all for life2

The forbidden slow dance,

A few golden minutes,

as long as precious matching chords ring.

I live for the music,

the only settings

Party

A strange party

A strange defeat.

Impossible one-on-one

Dance

A strange dance

A strange beat

Impossible chance

Madly, I grip your body

harder and harder.

I'm counting the chords, out of time,

I know I still have some left.

A fragile ball,

a useless ball.

I'm wandering the music

like an island.

Madly, madly,

...

...

Madly, I dance for you

Party

A strange party

A strange defeat

Impossible one-on-one

Dance

A strange dance

A strange beat

Impossible chance

Madly, madly

Madly, madly

Madly, madly

Madly, madly

Madly, madly

Madly, madly

Madly, madly

Party

A strange party

A strange defeat

Impossible one-on-one

Dance

A strange dance

A strange beat

Impossible chance

Impossible chance
