Je meurs de toi [English translation]

A door opens and you go out of my life

And I get scared every time

I become murmur and I become misery

The moment you leave

Burnt in despair

I die of you

And the door slams and my soul gets lost

for whom, for what?

I become a lost island on the sea

Beaten by all the winds of disarray

Do you know that at all moments

I die of you ?

I can't live by myself

Even for an hour or two

I take shape in your eyes

Happy or sad

My heart only lives if you want to

I am only me if you love me

And away from you, for fear

I die of you, of us, I die

A door opens and you are back

And when you take me away again

I become weakness, I become love

As soon as you come back to the port

Of my emotions

Naked and nestled very tight

In my arms

I die of love, I die of you
