Les Mots d'amour [English translation]

It is crazy that I am able to love you

That I am able to love you sometimes

Sometimes, I would like to shout

Because I have never loved

Never loved like that

That I can swear to you

If you ever went away

Went away and left me

Left me forever

It is certain that I would die of it

That I would die of love

My love, my love

It is crazy what he used to say to me

As lovely words of love

And how he used to say them

But he has not killed himself

Because in spite of my love

It is him who left me

Without saying a word

Nevertheless, about the words

There were so many of them

There were too many of them

It is crazy that I am able to love you

That I am able to love you sometimes

Sometimes, I would like to shout

Because I have never loved

Never loved like that

That I can swear to you

If you ever went away

Went away and left me

Left me forever

It is certain that I would die of it

That I would die of love

My love, my love

And so it is that today

These same words of love

It is me who repeats them

It is me who repeats them

With so much love

To someone other than him

I say the words

Because, about the words

There are so many of them

There are too many of them

It is crazy that I am able to love you

That I am able to love you sometimes

Sometimes, I would like to shout

Because I have never loved

Never loved like that

That I can swear to you

If you ever went away

Went away and left me

Left me forever

It is certain that I would die of it

That I would die of love

My love, my love

Deep down it was not you

As it is not even me

That says these words of love

Because each day your voice

My voice or other voices

It is the voice of love…

That says the words

More words

Always words

The words of love

It is crazy that I am able to love you

My love, my love

If you ever went away

It is certain that I would die of it

It is crazy that I am able to love you

That I am able to love you… out of love
