Et pourtant [English translation]

I know I’ll wake up one beautiful morning

A day different from all the others

And my heart will finally be set free from our love

And yet... and yet...

I’ll leave without regrets or guilt

Without any hope of returning, far away from me

Far away from those eyes and that heart

I will forever forget

Your body, your arms and your voice

My love

And yet...

Yet I only love you

And yet...

Yet I only love you

And yet...

Yet I only love you

And yet...

I’ll withdraw without a tear, without crying

The secretive ties that tear apart my skin

Set me free from you so I can find rest

And yet... and yet

I’d walk towards other skies, towards foreign lands

To forget your cruel indifference

I’ll offer my hands full of love

To happiness

And to the days, the nights, the life

Of my heart

And yet...

Yet I only love you

And yet...

Yet I only love you

And yet...

Yet I only love you

And yet...

Although I’ll have to rediscover my purpose

My nonchalance and moments of joy

That I left forever in order to escape you

And yet... and yet...

When I’m in another’s arms and have only forgotten your name

When I can reassess the future

You’ll become a hazy

Recollection for me

When my troubles, my fears, my tears

Have finished

And yet...

Yet I only love you

And yet...

Yet... yet I only love you

Yet... yet I only love you

And yet...

Yet I only love you

And yet...
