Nuit

Jean-Jacques Goldman
NUIT
Goldman - M. Jones, english text M. Jones
La nuit t'habille dans mes bras
Pales rumeurs et bruits de soie
Conquérante immobile
Reine do sang des villes
Je la supposais, la voilà
Tout n'est plus qu'ombre, rien ne ment
Le temps demeure et meurt pourtant
Tombent les apparences
Nos longs, si longs silences
Les amants se perdent en s'aimant
Solitaire à on souffle de toi
Si près tu m'échappes déjà
Mon intime étrangère
Se trouser c'est se défaire
A qui dit-on ces choses-là
As dawn lights up another day
Visions I once had fade away
All of those words unspoken
My wildest dreams all broken
It wasn't supposed to be that way
Should I leave why should I stay
Solitaire à on souffle de toi
Leavin' behind me yesterday
Tout près to m'échappes déjà
Am I free or forsaken
Mon intime étrangère
Cheated or awakened
Se trouver, se défaire
Does it matter anyway?

Night

Jean-Jacques Goldman
NIGHT
Goldman - M. Jones, english text M. Jones
The night embraces you in my arms
Pale rumors and soft silken whispers
Unmoving, queen regent
Queen over the blood of cities
I just suspected it, now it's here
All has turned to shadow, nothing lies
Time remains and yet it dies
Appearances fall away
Our long, endless silences
Lovers lose themselves in love
Solitary, almost within a breath from you
So near, and yet you already elude me
My intimate stranger
To find oneself is to lose oneself
To whom do we say these things?
As dawn lights up another day
Visions I once had fade away
All of those words unspoken
My wildest dreams all broken
It wasn't supposed to be that way
Should I leave why should I stay
Solitary, almost within a breath from you
Leavin' behind me yesterday
So near you already elude me
Am I free or forsaken
My intimate stranger
Cheated or awakened
To find oneself, to lose oneself
Does it matter anyway?
