Tu pars et tu reviens [English translation]

In the silence of the night

I monitor every noise

I’d like to sleep

I’d like to escape

By loving someone other than you

But you know well

That you’re not afraid at all

That I’ll ever leave you

And you go and you come

And you never say anything

You come, you complain

About lacking love

And you go and you come

You take other paths

And I wait for your return until morning

All the sad scenes

My memory recalls

What you said

What I hoped for

What you did to my heart

Of this house

Of this passion

Of this illusion of happiness

The smile that I loved

I secretly hope for it

Give me your hand

And from time to time

Tell me that you really love me

A drop of water

Is all the flower needs

To give it back its colour
