Les gens absents [English translation]

I've spent winter

Waiting for a word

Its like a desert

Without a drop of water

The row boat upside down

stored on trestles

We can see through it

It is of service to birds

I saw springtime

Crawl down the horizon

Beasts an people

Getting out of houses

The birds singing

Without knowing why

And still I was

Without news of you

Around the houses

An other summer is blazing

Some fledglings

Soar already

Frail flakes

Facing weightlessness

In the deep blue

Of the heat waves

Atop of the pylons

Travelling birds

Wait for autumn

like watchers

Flowers and men

lose their colors

And still nobody

On the answering machine

Absent people

That's the bother

They spin all the time

Here in front of our eyes

We thought we could unmake

The link with a snap

But finally

You wake up with it

Just a question

Does it last forever

That habit they have

To drone around ?

We speak in our sleep

Is that even normal ?

Absent people

What do they care ?

I've spent winter...

It's like a desert...

The heart upside-down...

We can see through it...

What about those stories

Of flowers, of seasons

Strange birds

Coming and going ?

Yhose are digressions

It's for you to understand

That I'm clinging

To the things I deserve
