Toi pardonne-moi [English translation]

You, forgive me, I am no longer as I was.

I have changed, you know, since we parted ways.

I wanted to enjoy life so much that I had forgotten how much I loved you.

Tonight, forgive me, make me forget all that.

If you knew how afraid I was to return,

I beg you to say nothing—keep me.

I need you so much.

I need you so much.

By touching your lips to my eyes, you will dry my tears.

Then you will take my hand and we will go very far away

towards a world full of joys to which you will lead me.

You, forgive me—me, I do not forgive myself.

I cried so much, you know, over all the harm I did to you.

There were even some nights, some days,

when I thought I was dying without your love.

Tonight, forgive me—forget about all this.

If you knew how afraid I was to return,

I beg you above all kiss me.

Please keep me.

Please keep me.

By touching your lips to my eyes, you will dry my tears.

Then you will take my hand and just like before

towards a world full of joys, you will lead me.

Yes, you will lead me away, you will lead me away.

Yes, you will lead me away, you will lead me away.

Yes, you will lead me away, you will lead me away.
