Ton absence [English translation]

Like a breath of pain

Your face doesn't say nothing more to me

I call you and you don't come

Your absence has entered me

There's a great void deep down inside me

All that happiness that isn't there anymore

If you knew that when it's late

How much I miss your gaze

It's the revers of your love

The life which weights a little more

Like a tide of silence

Which takes your place and moves forward

It's my hand on the phone

Now that there's nobody in sight

Your photo on the fireplace

Who says that everything has ended

You said that we'll be great

But I've discovered now

That everybody carries on his back

His own path as a burden

My childhood memories

The challenges and hopes

And this flower that blooms-up on silence...

Your absence

I sleep huddled in your smile

Amongst the past, the future

And the present that keeps me away

From joining you some beautiful morning

In that voyage of no return

I offered you all my love

Even with a fatigued soul and body

One can still love much more

Of course, high-up from somewhere,

You may hear or even see me

But speaking to one other is sweeter

We might have still understood each other

My childhood have faded, already

There are gestures from the the past

On films and on photos

You left so, so soon

I was left on the road

With my life in my hands

Not knowing what to do

To march toward the light

I'm only left for the rest of my life

As a memory of your love

With that flower that blooms-up on silence...

Your absence.
