Comme moi [English translation]

Maybe someplace else

There’s a woman

With a heart overwhelmed by joy

Like me

And with a blissful gesture she lifts

The blue silk curtain

Like me

Looks down

Her love will come along

And take her in his arms

Like me

She’s waiting for her lover

The eyes of her lover

The arms of her lover

Like me

Maybe also

At this moment she has

The best time of her life

Like me

And closing her eyes she gets lost

Her hand in her hair

Like me

Maybe she pins

A flower to her chest

And then looks at the clock

Like me

She thinks of her lover

Of her lover’s eyes

Of her lover’s arms

Like me

And maybe even

She will hear

Her heart beating faster and then

Like me

She will want to cry

When hearing a footstep on the stairs

Like me

Like me for a moment

Where my heart

Holds on to you in suspense

And then to die my love

In your eyes, my love

In your arms, my love

My love
