Un été sans toi [English translation]

A summer without you

In this lost corner,

It's no joy.

I don't walk anymore.

We promised each other

Happyness both together

But you've gone again

And I'm unhappy with that.

All alone in my corner

I come and go,

I read the paper,

I'm far from

Beeing in good spirits.

It makes me nervous

That big blue sea

Which doesn't give a damn.

A summer without you

It's really hell.

There's enough to make you

Hate the sea.

On my mattress

I dream of your body,

Drunk with the voice

Of my transistor.

I have no taste for anything.

You know that

It's always the same

When you're away:

I can' t sleep any more

I've been taking pictures

I put on four pounds

And sunburned.

You took away

Your laughter,

Your wet hair,

My oil to brown,

Your salt taste,

Your golden skin,

The hotel keys,

And my crossword puzzle.

Please come back!

It's inhuman

To leave me alone.

Do I look smart

Under my umbrella

With all this fine sand,

This fresh sea air?

I'm sick and tired of it.

I dream endlessly

To spend time later

By the fire

The autumn with you,

Winter with you,

Life with you...
