Ces temps-ci [English translation]

Here tonight, it's pouring

We gave an alright show

The motel isn't really nice

Lucky you're here and that I think your beautiful...

I watch you sleep like a baby

Too bad I felt like talking

It's fine I'm use to it Honey

To talk to myself these days...

For the last few weeks I can't sleep at night

Too many things crawling in my head

It's true that I live a strange life

Sometimes I feel that it's bulshit

I would like to find myself

Because I'm so messed up you wouldn't believe

The whole world could die

I only feel good when you're in my arms...

I know that nothing will ever happen

That between you and me it makes no sense

When I'm gonna leave at day brake

We'll say see ya to each other...

Even if I liked you little treasure

And that my heart was hung up

Somewhere on your northern road

Between Baie-Comeau and Port-Cartier

You told me that you were happy here

Far from the stressed people in Montreal

And your boyfriend is in there somewhere

I'm the loser if I add up everything

But dont worry about me

I've seen it before, I'm a big boy

I've stop making vain joys a long time ago

I know they turn in real disappointments

The sun has just risen

Outside we hear the sparrows

Chirping as if to remind me

That later I'm leaving for Gatineau

I wont be back around here before May

Until then keep me updated

Just call me collect call

To wish me merry Christmas...

Do you at least know that you made me believe

That it's still possible to be happy?

And that's what we call hope

It's at least that when you don't have better

You certainly weren't just a crush

But now it's way too complicated

If in life we must take risks

We also need to know to walk away

So I'm gonna shut up

I keep going on my own

With my little heart in my shoes

And your smile in my back-pack

But you know you can still call me

You're like my little ray of sunlight

In this world completely fucked up

Where I might have needed you

In this world completely fucked up

Where I might have needed you
