Nuits blanches [Afterglow] [English translation]

A gun on my temple

My soul and my heart are in pace

Your finger on the trigger

Make with me whatever you want

It's violent but it's tender

Almost animal

When the trajectory of the bullet

Has the shape of your hips

In the afterglow

Over and over again

I just can’t let go

‘Cos it haunts me like a friend

And I know

Oh oh

I can’t let go

Oh oh

In the afterglow

Over and over again

The writing on the wall

The heart of the city will speak

Echoing our phrases

You and I filling these street

I'm writing you about the future

I see our lives

And our kids are jumping on the bed

The sun is burning in our candles

In the afterglow

Over and over again

I just can’t let go

‘Cos it haunts me like a friend

And I know

Oh oh

I can’t let go

Oh oh

In the afterglow

Over and over again

That's all we have - that's all we have

It's still burning

It's always there - it's always there

When we fall asleep

I still have the taste of the sleepless nights on my lips

The foam of the days when I was standing on your bedside

Of the echo ( oh oh, oh oh) the sleep of the water (oh oh, oh oh)

I still have the taste of the sleepless nights on my lips

In the afterglow

Over and over again

A gun on my temple

My soul and my heart are in pace

Your finger on the trigger

Make with me whatever you want
