Le jour et l'heure [English translation]

In her coffee, dreaming, she poured a drop of milk

Then walking in puddles, she thought of her loved ones

In the city there were mirrors on the pavements

It was a rainy day, display windows were being made

I was just like the sky, lying down with no shades

My suitcase was packed, a sunny spell appeared

I wasn't waiting for anyone, I enjoyed the silence

And yet I know that we cannot forget...

The day and time

Where everything changed

The very moment of misfortune

As the telephone rung

The day and time

The very place of misery

Of what we used to do

Everything we used to do

Everything we used to do

I was taking my time

Nothing really mattered

In crowded terraces people burst out laughing

Wafting through the air a sense of airiness

And yet I know that we cannot forget...

The day and time

Where everything changed

The very moment of misfortune

As the telephone rung

The day and time

The very place of misery

Of what we used to do

Everything we used to do

I know that we cannot forget...

The day and time

The day and time

Where everything changed

The very moment of misfortune

As the telephone rung

The day and time

The very place of misery

Of what we used to do

Everything we used to do

Forever and ever
