Fixement, le ciel se tord

Staring, the sky twists

Quand la bouche engendre un mort

When the mouth produces death

Là je donnerai ma vie pour t'entendre

There I will give my life to hear you

Te dire les mots les plus tendres

Tell you the most tender words

When all becomes all alone

When all becomes all alone

I'll break my life for a song

I'll break my life for a song

And two lives that stoop to notice mine

And two lives that stop to notice mine

I know I will say goodbye

I know I will say goodbye

But a fraction of this life

But a fraction of this life

I would give anything, anytime

I would give anything, anytime

L'univers a ses mystères

The universe has its mysteries

Les mots sont nos vies

Words are our lives

You could kill a life with words

You could kill a life with words

So, how would it feel?

So, how would it feel?

Si nos vies sont si fragiles

If our lives are so fragile

Words are mysteries

Words are mysteries

Les mots des sentiments

Words of feelings

Les mots d'amour, un temple

Words of love, a temple

If one swept the world away

If one swept the world away

One could touch the universe

One could touch the universe

I will tell you how the sun rose high

I will tell you how the sun rose high

We could with a word become one

We could with a word become one

Et pour tous ces mots qui blessent

And for all these words that hurt

Il y a ceux qui nous caressent

There are those who caress us

Qui illuminent, qui touchent l'infini

Who illuminate, who touch the infinite

Même si le néant existe

Even if nothingness exists

For a fraction of this life

For a fraction of this life

I will give anything, anytime

I will give anything, anytime
