Chi?
Charles Aznavour
Who?
Who will open your lips
And in possessing you will surprise you?
Because you renew yourself
And with him you find
New horizons of happiness?
Who will steal my place
Even in the most hidden
Dream that you have
When, dominated,
Loved again,
With a laugh
Will you destroy me?
Who will reach out a hand
In which I will disappear?
Who will be close to you
When I’m not around?
Who will take advantage
Of your sweetness with a caress
And with a goodbye will cover the oblivion
Of what was mine
When I’m gone?
There’s always a strange happiness
Alive between us
Despite the gap between
Our ages
But until I’m gone
And another will admire you
A question will haunt
My thoughts
Who, without protest,
Will redo those gestures
Reserved for me?
When you wait for me
When you take me
With heartbeats and you stretch out to offer yourself to me?
Who will discover the laughter
The sudden madness
And the seriousness?
And will drink in the essence
Of your presence
That my departure
Will grant him?
Who could say it?
Who will ever discover it?
And I have to suffer
For whoever will take you
With a new "I love you"
And with that "I love you"
That will daze you
As you sleep next to him
After you’ve cried tears of joy
Will bury me again.
