Presque [English translation]

In Lille on the Grand Place

in a subtle game of mirrors

I had a front view of her profile

She slid money under the cup,

Got up, I lost her

I should have...

It's almost you, almost me, those lovers in the yard

It's almost us, almost you, it's almost love

It's almost you, almost me

We've almost opened the door

almost passed under the porch

and then in the courtyard in bloom

the word that she said

I placed my finger on her cheek

She slid her hand under my jacket

A little bit more and there, both of us, both of us

It's almost you, almost me, those lovers in the yard

It's almost us, almost you, it's almost love

It's almost you, almost me, those lovers in the yard

It's almost us, almost you, it's almost love

I almost wrote to you this morning

almost took my courage in both hands

To tell you that in Lille on the Grand Place

I had the profile of your face

It's almost you, almost me, those lovers in the yard

It's almost us, almost you, it's almost love

It's almost you, almost me, those lovers in the yard

It's almost us, almost you, it's almost love
