Je t'attends [English translation]

My days pass, my nights cry

And the wind cries

My reason sinks and is dying when dies the time

This dead time that I regret so much

Cause without joy my life stops

And I’m waiting for you

I’m waiting for the air I breathe and the spring

I’m waiting for my bursts of laughter, and for my twenty years

My calm seas and my storms at the same time

Cause without joy my life stops

I’m waiting for you

I’m waiting for you

Come, don’t delay

Wherever you come from, whoever you are

Come, the time is short

I’m waiting for you

My unknown dream

What is your name, what is your purpose

Mine is love

So that my days will be transformed

And really my life takes shape by you

Every moment

Cause the emptiness haunts me

With my blood

As a painter I invent you

And I’m waiting for you

My fingers by little touches paint your teeth

Before munching your mouth madly

But these dreams leave me only

torments

Cause I drag my distress

And I’m waiting for you–––––
