Sublime & silence
Autour de moi tu danses
You dance around me
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
Your burning lips
Quand tu souris
When you smile
Le vide aurait suffi
The void would have been enough
Le vide aurait suffi
The void would have been enough
Sublime & silence
Autour de toi tout tremble
Everything trembles around you
Et tout finit
And everything ends
C'est à moi que tu penses
You're the one I'm thinking of
À nos ivresses blanches
About our white intoxications
Je fuis Paris
I'm fleeing Paris
Le vide aurait suffi
The emptiness would have been enough
Le vide aurait suffi
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 I leave you
Après la nuit
After the night
Violence et promesse
Violence and promise
C'est tout c'que tu détestes
It's everything you hate
La mort aussi
Death too
Le vide aurait suffi
The emptiness would have been enough
Le vide aurait suffi
The emptiness would have been enough
Je caresse ton absence
I caress 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 flee
Le vide aurait suffi
The emptiness would have been enough
Le vide aurait suffi
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 for you
Après la nuit
After the night
Violence et promesse
Violence and promise
C'est tout c'que tu détestes
It's all that you hate
La mort aussi
Death too
Le vide aurait suffi
The emptiness would have been enough
Le vide aurait suffi
The emptiness would have been enough
Mais je sais que tu restes
But I know that you linger
Dans les fleurs que j'te laisse
In the flowers that I leave you
Après la nuit
After the night
Violence et promesse
Violence and promise
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 linger
Mais je sais que tu restes
But I know that you linger
