Éblouie par la nuit [English translation]

Blinded by the night's

fatal flashes of lights

whizzing cars go by

like pinheads pupils 'came tight

A hundred years I've passed

for you on black and white vast

and you came up whistling past

Blinded by the night's

fatal flashes of lights

kicking 'round tin cans,

a ship lost without mast

if my mind went blast

I love you and what's worst

is you came up whistling past

Blinded by the night's

fatal flashes of lights

Will you love this life

or just watch it go by?

To smoke they went our nights

nothing's remaining I sigh

but your cinders left to fly

In this train that's filled

with life's headaches instilled

at the station coming

european darling

lay your hand, let it part

to the depths of my heart

Blinded by the night's

fatal flashes of lights

One lap more and the last

with hand stretched out fast

A hundred years I've passed

for you on black and white vast

and you came up whistling past
