L'amour s'en va [English translation]

Love goes away

Love goes away

What I reap

I sowed myself.

Love goes away

It's over.

No matter how much

I regret my mistakes.

Love goes away.

You're only waiting

for the day

on which you will say

I'm leaving now.

When your sharp

sword of goodbye

is driven deepest into my heart.

As yet I feel you

on my skin

with these lips so familiar

as if you would never ever leave.

But your je t'aime (I love you) already hurts now.

Love goes away.

I know you're lying.

No matter how often you still tell me you love me.

Love goes away.

I know this is it,

you already decided against me a long time ago.

Love goes away.

Love goes away.

No matter what you tell me,

No matter how well you put on an act,

I can see behind your façade,

You won't let me survive.

The moment is not decided yet,

But you will let me have it one day,

Because you will never forgive me.

A woman like you says c'est la vie (such is life/Bye bye)

Love goes away

Get it over with.

I really don't deserve anything but death.

Love goes away.

Please tell me, is it possible,

that you still can manage to forgive me this once?

Love goes away.

Love goes away.

Please tell me, is it possible,

that you still can manage to forgive me this once?

Love goes away.

Love goes away.

But for us two

maybe it's not yet too late.

Love goes away.

Love goes away.

Love goes away.

Love goes away.
