Coup d'œil dans le métro [English translation]

Head hanging down, he sits on his bed

He thinks about (back at / remembers) the girl he saw around noon

The telly (TV) is on, but he doesn't hear it

He wants to squeeze her in his arms

She is in the kitchen and she thinks back at him

That kept the door open, so she could come to him

Just a glance, not a single word

When the door of the metro closed

This planet is big, but the city is small

She is his rare pearl, he is her nugget (i.e. little clump of gold)

To see each other again they make the same journey

Because their dream is to find each other again (They dream of seeing each other again)

She draws him in China ink

When he searches her likeness in all the magazines

And he cuts out the faces that resemble her

One needs to gather them, so that they can be together (Any suggestions for this last phrase?)

[refrain]

It's a glance in the metro

A script for the metro

Our two heroes seem retro

But in the real world one never has (makes?) to many of those

Only the mountains don't meet each other

They saw each other again, but didn't believe in it

It had the effect of an avalanche

An eruption of intense feelings

She chased, he chased after her

She searched him so hard, he searched her (some subtle meaning escapes me here, I'm sure)

They lived in the same city and the same neighbourhood

Same building, same floor, same passage

To open the door for feelings, is

maybe to open it at the right moment

In any case, it's the beginning of this scenario

When the words 'the end' will begin their story

[refrain] ×2

The main character is providence

To help the plot there is the chance factor

The décors are natural surroundings

And the casting consists of real characters

But reality surpasses fiction

It's about the heart and seduction

Everything is possible when one is Cupido's target

End of the movie

In the real world one never has enough of those
