Dear
Child
Mon
enfant
chérie
Dear
child,
they're
asking
us
to
move
Ma
chère
enfant,
ils
nous
demandent
de
déménager
I
watched
her
taking
off
her
shoes
Je
l'ai
regardée
enlever
ses
chaussures
(Let
the
shore
tide
take
you
in,
let
the
shore
tide
in)
(Laisse
la
marée
du
rivage
te
prendre,
laisse
la
marée
du
rivage
te
prendre)
I'm
weary,
I'm
not
quite
rested
yet
Je
suis
fatigué,
je
ne
suis
pas
encore
vraiment
reposé
This
could
be
obvious
to
you
Cela
pourrait
être
évident
pour
toi
(Let
the
shore
tide
take
you
in,
let
the
shore
tide
in)
(Laisse
la
marée
du
rivage
te
prendre,
laisse
la
marée
du
rivage
te
prendre)
In
this
short
time,
we've
been
treading
air
En
ce
court
laps
de
temps,
nous
marchons
sur
l'air
I've
been
trying
to
reach
you,
J'ai
essayé
de
te
joindre,
But
my
extension
cord
wouldn't
reach
that
far
Mais
mon
câble
d'extension
n'allait
pas
aussi
loin
(Reach
that
far)
(Aller
aussi
loin)
I've
been
patiently
waiting
J'ai
attendu
patiemment
The
indicator
light
is
flashing
on
Le
voyant
clignote
(Flashing
on)
(Clignotait)
Dear
sleeper,
you
could've
had
the
better
bed
Ma
dormeuse,
tu
aurais
pu
avoir
un
meilleur
lit
I
loved
to
watch
the
way
you
grew
J'aimais
regarder
la
façon
dont
tu
grandissais
We're
out,
we're
out
the
door
On
est
dehors,
on
est
dehors
We're
out,
we're
out
the
door
On
est
dehors,
on
est
dehors

(Clignotait)
In
this
coma,
sleepless
dancing
Dans
ce
coma,
dansant
sans
dormir
We've

Nous
marchons
sur
l'air
