Et Moi Dans Mon Coin [English translation]

He watches you, out of the corner of his eye

You, you get irritated, in your armchair

He caresses you, from the bottom of his eyes

You, you let yourself be taken in his game

And me, in my corner, if I say nothing

I notice everything

And me, in my corner, I bite my lips

Seeing the end approaching.

He, he peers over you, feverishly

You, you agree with him, smiling

He, he aims at you, and I can see

You, you regret, that I am here

And me, in my corner, if I say nothing

I can see your trick

And me, in my corner, I hide carefully

This anguish which embraces me.

He looks at you, furtively

You, you chatter, too freely

He courts you, through me

You, you get drunk, laugh out loud

And me in my corner, if I say nothing

My heart is on the verge of tears

And me in my corner, I swallow my sorrow

For love changes hands

Ah, but no, it's nothing.

Perhaps a little tiredness.

Huh! Not at all. What are you looking for there?

No, no, I had a great evening.
