On me dit [English translation]

One night you came into my life

Taking (your) place in the pit of my stomach

Yet he didn't want you

To make yourself a little place in the centre

A pretty ball of sweetness

A pain that people don't know

I have been deprived of curves

And too bad for the little death (also the french expression for "orgasm")

It seems that I am ageing fast

That I should be careful of/ pay attention to

The ticking (the sound from a clock) which reminds me

That I have an expiration date

I am told/they say it's complicated

They stare at me (judgingly)

I hear it said that it's a sin

That is not what people should do

I am told/they say that I killed you

They look at me sadly

I who didn't want to leave you

I would have liked

To have done it differently/another way

My almost real

My little one

Imagine if you had grown up

My almost everything

My pretty nothing

Imagine how good it would be

And every night I see you again

But still, she (the experience/"possibility") is stolen from me

The body folded between my sheets

"The possibility" to keep you

It seems that I am ageing quickly

That I should be careful of/ pay attention to

The ticking which reminds me

That I have an expiration date

I'm told/ they say it's complicated

They stare at me (judgingly)

I hear it's a sin

That is not what people should do

I am told that I killed you

They look at me sadly

I who didn't want to leave you

I would have liked

To have done it differently/another way

These nine months that I missed

Those months that were taken from us

Maybe I'll be one of those

Of those who know how to give life

Maybe another will come

A small helpless body

And this time "we" will live it

The beautiful adventure of life

I'm told/They say it's complicated

They stare at me (judgingly)

I hear it's a sin

That is not what people should do

I am told that I killed you

They look at me sadly

I who didn't want to leave you

I would have liked

To have done it differently/another way
