Pardonne-moi [English translation]

If you had waited, If you had taken the time

If you hadn't wanted everything, right now

If you had tasted me, like a forbidden fruit

Only with the heart, secretly

As when nothing is due

We would have engraved day by dy

in the palm of our hands

More than yesterday and always

and less than tomorrow

Forgive me

The pain I didn't wish to give you

I didn't want for our love to be more or less right

I simply wanted to know myself better, to become a better person by your side

The person who gives only a little gives nothing

I wanted to give my all

If I had known what to say, that the one

who I was going to become would come, step by step

and that you don't see

If you had known how to read, deciphering the child

the promise of our desire, beyond the present moment,

We would have counted each day on the bound fingers of our hands

When hope still and always, For such beautiful tomorrows

Refrain
