Noces à Grenelle [English translation]

Why hasn’t everything disappeared yet?

Maybe to leave us a chance

Maybe to leave us one last chance

Not to tell ourselves we should have

Or, we could have

Till it's too late

We broke up, withous whys

I’m clueless

I still don’t know, how about you

I understand no more

We only realize that when it’s over

Wasn’t it here, that life chose to dwell?

Haven’t we?

I was supposed, I had to take care of you

Of our roof you were, in life I saw no one but me

Why hasn’t everything disappeared yet?

Maybe to leave us a chance

Maybe to leave us one last chance

Not to tell ourselves we should have

Or, we could have

Till it's too late

We lasted as long as we could

You and I

Without whys

I’m speaking for myself

You always knew your part

I understand no more

We only realize that when it’s over

Weren't we made for each other?

We were meant to shape each other, we were

Out of selfishness I said "I am".

Why hasn’t everything disappeared yet?

Maybe to leave us a chance

Maybe to leave us one last chance

Not to tell ourselves we should have

Or, we could have

Till it's too late

We fought for no reason

Unaware that I was the victim of myself

I understand no more

We only realize that when it’s over

Wasn't it here that hearts blossom?

Wasn’t it here that we became soulmates?

Why did I let loose your hand and lend it to the madness?

Why hasn’t everything disappeared yet?

Maybe to leave us a chance

Maybe to leave us one last chance

Not to tell ourselves we should have

Or, we could have

Till it's too late
