Et maintenant [English translation]

And now, what will I do

With all the time that's left of my life?

With all these people I don't care about

Now that you are gone

All these nights to come, for what, for whom ?

And the morning sun keeps rising for nothing

That heart is still beating, for whom, for what ?

Beating too hard, too hard

And now, what will I do ?

Into which void will my life slip ?

You left me the whole world

But the world without you is so small

You my friends, please be kind

You know nothing can be done

Even Paris is horribly monotonous

These too familiar streets are killing me

And now, what will I do ?

I will laugh not to cry anymore

I will burn through entire nights

And by morning I will hate you

And then one night in my mirror

I will see the end of the path

Not a flower and no tears

On the moment of farewell

I really have nothing to do anymore

I really have nothing anymore
