Je voulais te dire que je t'attends [English translation]

I'll wrap my heart in silver foil

And cancel my phone number

My love songs will stay there, in my piano

I will have thrown the key to the piano in the water

I'll go and see the kings of the flea-market

"Sell my heart, for three francs fifty"

You knew so well how to listen to it

That my life ended

When you left me

I wanted to tell you that I'm waiting for you

And I don't care if I'm wasting my time.

I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you all the time

Without becoming discouraged yet.

Like a person who no longer has anyone

And falls asleep near the telephone,

And smiles when someone wakes them

--but it turns out to just be the sun.

The other day, I saw someone who looked like you

And the street was like a trembling photograph

If it was you who passed by, the day I was walking

If it's really you, I've already seen the scene

I look at you

And you look at me.

I wanted to tell you that I'm waiting for you

And I don't care if I'm wasting my time.

I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you all the time

This evening, tomorrow, it doesn't matter when

Like a person who no longer has anyone

And falls asleep near the telephone

And who looks for you, upon waking

All alone in the sunlight, I wait for you.

I wanted to say that I'm waiting for you.

If you knew how I'm waiting for you!

I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you all the time

When will you be here? I'm waiting for you

If you knew how I'm waiting for you!

I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you all the time

I wanted to say that I'm waiting for you.
