Je reviens te chercher

I'll come back to get you
I knew you were waiting for me
I knew we couldn't
To do without each other for a long time
I'll come back to get you
Well, you see, I haven't changed much
And I see that on your side
You have come through time well

We both went to war
We both robbed, stole, ruined each other
Who won, who lost?
We don't know anything, we don't know anymore
We find ourselves bare-handed
But after the war
We still have to do
Peace

I'll come back to get you
Trembling like a bridegroom
But richer than in days gone by
Of tenderness and tears and time

I'll come back to get you
I look stupid on this landing
Help me and come kiss me
There is a taxi downstairs waiting

I'll come back to get you
