Dans le décor [English translation]

The corner shop the chemists

Another double-decker bus

The boys at the top of the steps

And the girls at Marble Arch

You, you watch as you pass

And it’s all the same as before

You know this story

You recognise the pavements

The vodka and the rubies

Stolen in a taxi

As you pass by you see again

Your silhouettes in this place

And in the background

You still hang around

And in the background

You know about transient loves

The loves that replace one another

You won’t have succeeded

In erasing this one

And the photo in your bag

The children in the hammock

Tonight you came back

You wanted to see the street again

See the dust of the square once more

Tonight the light of the evening

You wanted to see your life again

Even if life has flown

And in the background

You still hang around

And in the background
