Sublime & silence
Autour de moi, tu danses
Around me, you dance
Et moi j'oublie
And I forget
C'est à toi que je pense
It's you that I think of
À ta bouche brûlante
To your burning mouth
Quand tu souris
When you smile
Le vide aurait suffit
The emptiness would have been enough
Le vide aurait suffit
The emptiness would have been enough
Sublime & silence
Autour de toi, tout tremble
Around you, everything trembles
Et tout finit
And everything ends
C'est à moi que tu penses
It's me that you think of
À nos ivresses blanches
In our white intoxications
Je fuis Paris
I flee from Paris
Le vide aurait suffit
The emptiness would have been enough
Le vide aurait suffit
The emptiness would have been enough
Mais je sais que tu restes
But I know that you remain
Dans les fleurs que j'te laisse
In the flowers that I leave for you
Après la nuit
After the night
Violence et promesses
Violence and promises
C'est tout c'que tu détestes
It's all that you hate
La mort aussi
Death too
Le vide aurait suffit
The emptiness would have been enough
Le vide aurait suffit
The emptiness would have been enough
Je caresse ton absence
I stroke your absence
La montagne et l'errance
The mountain and the wandering
Et puis l'ennui
And then the boredom
La rivière te ressemble
The river resembles you
Au moins en apparence
At least in appearance
Pourtant tu fuis
Yet you run away
Le vide aurait suffit
The emptiness would have been enough
Le vide aurait suffit
The emptiness would have been enough
Mais je sais que tu restes
But I know that you stay
Dans les fleurs que j'te laisse
In the flowers that I leave you
Après la nuit
After the night
Violence et promesses
Violence and promises
C'est tout c'que tu détestes
That's all that you hate
La mort aussi
Death too
Le vide aurait suffit
The emptiness would have been enough
Le vide aurait suffit
The emptiness would have been enough
Mais je sais que tu restes
But I know that you remain
Dans les fleurs que j'te laisse
In the flowers that I leave you
Après la nuit
After the night
Violence et promesses
Violence and promises
C'est tout c'que tu détestes
It's all that you hate
La mort aussi
Death too
Mais je sais que tu restes
But I know that you remain
Je sais que tu restes
I know that you remain
