Je te tendrai les bras [English translation]

As long as your heart beats for me,

as long as a breath of love remains in you

that I will find in the depths of you—

I will reach out for you.

As long as your eyes are filled with joy,

as long as your dreams are only of me—

that you think only of me—

I will reach out for you.

For a love without a tomorrow,

do not treat me as a mere pleasure.

You cannot change your destiny—

it is written into the future.

As long as my heart beats for you,

as long as a breath of life remains in me—

in order to hold you close to me—

I will reach out for you.

Drunk on your love, bewitched by you—

I will give more than my life for you —

more than my life to protect

this great love that makes us one.

As long as you create mornings

that, for me, will lead to days filled with sun—

that you will be able to be amazed

at your happiness that is my happiness.

Every day that God makes—

for as long as I will live—

with both my arms, I will reach out—

I will reach out for you.
