Embrasse-moi [English translation]

If courage could be used

To hang onto life,

I would have all the courage,

Used up all my strength

And used up all my rage.1

If reason made sense,

I would have beaten myself up

Looking for reasons,

Finding the strength to hit rock bottom,

Walking on their ashes

And all their illusions.2

Kiss me

With all your power!

Kiss me!

It's an urgent matter!

Take me away . . . away . . . away.3

I have lost ahead of time

Against you

Who leaves no chance.4

If passion could be used

To pardon life,

I would have all the pardons.

I would have the strength, without asking questions,

To dig deep into my rage

For one last reason.

Kiss me

With all your power!

Kiss me!

It's an urgent matter!

Take me away . . . away . . . away.

I have lost ahead of time

Against you,

Who leaves no chance.

Kiss me

With all your power!

Kiss me!

It's an urgent matter!5

Take me away . . . away . . . away.

I have lost ahead of time

Against you5

Who leaves no chance.

Kiss me!
