Mélancolique [English translation]

Melancholic and besides

Melancholic, so what?

More decent than decency

But between me and you

I was already this way

Before

Apostolic paleness

The joy of saying it with flowers

Sometimes I laugh heartily

But between me and you

You won't see it again

You won't see it anymore

That's what I have left

Of my late youth

That's all I have left

Melancholic and besides

Melancholic, so what?

Alcoholic delights, delights of illusions

But between me and you

I was already this way

Before

Transatlantic is my heart

Filled with steamboats

I'd like to possess happiness

But between me and you

You won't see it again

You won't see it anymore

Melancholic and besides

Melancholic, so what?

Unpleasant at first

But between me and you

I was already this way

Before

Ananchronistic candour

A heart-catcher policy

Sometimes I dance late at night

But between me and you

You won't see it again

You won't see it anymore
