Si le temps [English translation]

I recall so many faces

As if I had never turned the page

There's so many things I want to tell you

About the best years of my live

When in despair, I often

Thought about what I was

When time would stop, I would go back there

If I could (if only I could)

All those people I remember

Give life to my victories

Are always by my side

When millions of tears

Overwhelm my soul

If I ever fell on the way into the den that would lead me to the memories that will help me move on

I would tell him/her that every moment of my life mattered and from now on there's nothing I will regret

(chorus)

If time ever gave us the chance

To be as before

I wish I would see the ones I loved again

The ones who were so generous with me

If time ever gave us the chance

To be as before

I wish I would see the ones who lulled me to sleep

The ones who made me dream

I have lived three years of happiness

When I left Lomé, I was breaking my heart

I got lost in my country

As if I had never been born here

When in despair, I often

Thought about what I was

When time would stop, I would go back there

If I could (if only I could)

My past arises in me

As if for the last time

And when I think about it, I shed thousands of tears

As many other women do

If I ever fell on the way into the den that would lead me to the memories that will help me move on

I would tell him/her that every moment of my life mattered and from now on there's nothing I will regret

(chorus)
