Si t'étais là [English translation]

Sometimes I think of you,

In cars

The worst, it's the travels1,

If by chance

A song brings back a memory,

The questions without answer,

That, that's the worst

Do you hear me?

Do you see me?

What would you say, you,

If you were here?

Are these signs that you're sending me?

What would you do, you,

If you were here?

I tell myself stories,

To fall asleep

To numb my sorrow,

And to smile

I have imaginary conversations

With people that are not on earth

Do you hear me?

Do you see me?

What would you say, you,

If you were here?

Are these signs that you're sending me?

What would you do, you,

If you were here?

I don't give a damn if they're afraid

That I might not make it

I know that you're there not far,

Even it it's crazy

Crazy people they're made to make armors melt away

To make people cry

In cars

Do you hear me?

Do you see me?

What would you say, you,

If you were here?

Are these signs that you're sending me?

What would you do, you,

If you were here?
