Je reviens te chercher [English translation]

I am coming back to get you

I knew you were waiting for me

And I knew we couldn’t

Do without each other for long.

I am coming back to get you

Well you see, I haven’t changed much

And I see that you, at your end,

Have held up through the test of time.

We were fighting a war with each other

We were both pillaged, robbed and destroyed

Who won, who lost,

We know nothing of it, we don’t know anymore.

We find each other empty-handed

But after war

We are left to make peace.

I am coming back to get you

Trembling like a young bride.

But richer than in the days past

In tenderness and in tears and in time.

I am coming back to get you

I look stupid in this lobby.

Help me and come kiss me

There is a taxi out there waiting.

We were fighting a war with each other

We were both pillaged, robbed and destroyed

Who won, who lost

We know nothing of it, we don’t know anymore.

We find each other empty-handed

But after war

We are left to make peace.
