L'envie [English translation]

Enough of pitying to me, enough of hating me

Enough of putting me down, enough of belittling me

Enough of pleasing me in my sad qualms

Enough of the pain in the ass high up on my lists

Evidently that nothing goes well, that nothing will vanish

It's been a long time that everything that I see here devises

The plan, the map, to see my life as it should

Forty years old and my charter all start again from zero

All start again from zero

All start again from zero

From now on, from now on, from now on, I will disarm the regrets

I will enjoy the summits without putting my heart out in the hallow

The advantage of the age is the wisdom that knows

That we argue less, we snap at each other less. For me I break, I get torn apart

I still have the half of my life

It will be the best half

For I know how to make good efforts

And see my life and make it shine

See my life and lift it

See my life and unfold it

See my life by the truth

See my life by the truth

See my life by the truth

It's not hope that saves, heals, the desire

It's not hope that saves, heals, the desire

It's the desire; it's the desire; it's the desire; it's the desire

It's the desire; it's the desire; it's the desire; it's the desire

It's the desire; it's the desire; it's the desire; it's the desire

It's the desire; it's the desire; it's the desire; it's the desire

It's the desire; it's the desire

I will try everything, open everything, feel everything, risk everything

I will stop lying and denying my own truths

Suffering from my reality. However, does it have my reality?

Suffering from my reality. However, does it have my reality?

I will avoid nothing, neither anger nor rage

nor tenderness, nor stress, nor misery of the age

Sometimes I will be angry, sad, and gris and gloomy

Sometimes I will be, you know it, one of the falling ones

I will no longer hide dreams again

It's the time to face the world as it is:

Reality by truth

See my life by the truth

See my life by the truth

See my life by the truth

It's not hope that saves, heals, the desire

It's not hope that saves, heals, the desire

It's not hope that saves

It's not hope that saves, heals, the desire

It's not hope that saves, heals, the desire

It's not hope that saves

It's not hope that saves

(It's not hope)

(It's not hope)

(It's not hope)

(It's the desire)

Find people, find time, find key moments

Find dreams, find truces, find projects

Find places, find quiet moments, arms that comfort you

Find the skies, find the stake to break your armor

Find the chance and the innocence when it crosses your path

And take the absence as what it is, the desire for someone far away

The desire, must feed all that matters

If that rises within you: let it rise
