Je reviens te chercher
Gilbert Becaud
I'm coming back to get you
I'm coming back to get you
I knew you were waiting for me
I knew we couldn't
Stay away from each other for long
I'm coming back to get you
Well, you see, I haven't changed much
And I see that on your side
You have weathered time well
{Chorus:}
Both of us waged war
Both of us plundered, stole, ruined
Who won, who lost,
We don't know, we don't know anymore
We find ourselves empty-handed
But after the war,
We still have to
Make peace.
I'm coming back to get you
Trembling like a newlywed
But richer than in days gone by
With tenderness and tears and time
I'm coming back to get you
I look silly on this landing
Help me and come kiss me
There's a taxi waiting downstairs
{to Chorus}
