Paroles et traduction Edith Piaf - Reste

Reste

On s'? tait quitt? s tous les deux
Et, brusquement, l?, c'est curieux,
On se retrouve face? face.
On croyait ne plus se revoir
Puisqu'apr? s une sc? ne, un soir,
Je t'ai dit: "Pars! Que tout s'efface!"
Maintenant que tout est bien fini
Et que nos c? urs se sont repris,
Ne pensons plus qu'aux jolis gestes.
Causons en amis, simplement.
Non! Ne pars pas! Rien qu'un moment...
Allons, voyons, je t'en prie...
Reste...

Reste, que nous parlions un peu
Du temps o? nous? tions heureux,
Car nous le f? mes, j'imagine.
En cet instant mon c? ur? mu,
Vraiment, ne se rappelle plus...
Que de nos minutes divines.
Le mal que nous nous sommes fait,
Petit? petit, dispara? t.
Lorsque j'? voque tout le reste,
Ta main fr? mit entre mes doigts...
Tu te rappelles... alors pourquoi
Vouloir t'en aller d? j?
Reste...

Reste! A moins qu'au fond de ton c? ur,
Plus rien existe, j'en ai peur.
Ta vie serait-elle? une autre?
...Oui? Alors, tu ne me m'aimes plus!
Un nouvel amour est venu
Remplacer la trace du n? tre.
Ah! Tu vas la retrouver ce soir...
Aussi, quel d? sir, quel espoir
En toi soudain se manifestent.
Oh non! Pas encore! Je ne veux pas!...
Tu n'iras pas entre ses bras!
Tu n'iras pas, entends-tu?
Reste!

Reste! Oh pardon!... Je souffre trop!
Je suis l? et je dis des mots
Qui te laissent voir ma d? tresse...
Sans toi, chaque nuit je pleurais
Et, te retrouvant, j'esp? rais
Au moins un? lan de tendresse...
Mais quoi? Des larmes dans tes yeux?
Est-ce un remords, est-ce un adieu?
Vois, je n'ai plus qu'un dernier geste,
Et c'est de t'offrir mon pauvre c? ur
O? survit tout notre bonheur...
Oh! Ch? ri!... Tu restes!... Tu restes...

Stay

We left each other
And suddenly, there, it's strange,
We meet face to face.
We thought we would never see each other again
Since after a scene, one evening,
I told you: "Go! Let everything fade away!"
Now that everything is finished
And that our hearts have recovered,
Let's think only of the beautiful gestures.
Let's talk as friends, simply.
No! Don't go away! Just a moment...
Come on, please...
Stay...

Stay, that we may speak a little
Of the time when we were happy,
For we were, I imagine.
At this moment my moved heart,
Truly, remembers nothing...
But our divine minutes.
The wrong that we have done to each other,
Little by little, has disappeared.
When I evoke all the rest,
Your hand shivering between my fingers...
You remember... then why
Want to leave already?
Stay...

Stay! Unless in the depths of your heart,
Nothing exists anymore, I'm afraid.
Would your life be another?
...Yes? Then you don't love me anymore!
A new love has come
To replace the trace of ours.
Ah! You're going to find her tonight...
Also, what desire, what hope
Suddenly appear in you.
Oh no! Not yet! I don't want to!...
You will not go into her arms!
You will not go, do you hear me?
Stay!

Stay! Oh forgive me!... I suffer too much!
I am here and I say words
Which let you see my distress...
Without you, I cried every night
And, finding you again, I hoped
At least a glimmer of tenderness...
But what? Tears in your eyes?
Is it a remorse, is it a farewell?
See, I have only one last gesture,
And that is to offer you my poor heart
Where all our happiness survives...
Oh! Darling!... You're staying!... You're staying...
