Je t'aime [English translation]

I agree, there were

Other ways of parting

Some broken glass

Might perhaps have helped us

In this bitter silence

I've decided to forgive

The mistakes we can make

In loving each other too much

I agree, the little girl

In me would often call for you

Almost like a mother

You would encircle me,1 protect me

I've stolen from you this blood

That we shouldn't have shared

[Having run] out of words, of dreams

I'm going to scream

Chorus:

I love you, I love you

Like a madman, like a soldier

Like a film star

I love you, I love you

Like a wolf, like a king

Like a man that I am not

You see, I love you like this

I agree, I've confided to you

All my smiles, all my secrets

Even those that only a brother

Is the unavowed custodian of

In this house of stone

Satan would watch us dance

I've so much wanted war

from bodies that were making up with each other

Chorus:

I love you, I love you

Like a madman, like a soldier

Like a film star

I love you, I love you

Like a wolf, like a king

Like a man that I am not

You see, I love you like this

I love you, I love you

Like a madman, like a soldier

Like a film star

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you

Like a wolf, like a king

Like a man that I am not

You see, I love you like this

You see, I love you like this
