Lettre à France

Since I've been away from you
I feel like I'm far from myself
And I think of you quietly
You're six hours away from me
I'm years away from you
That's what it's like over there

The difference
Is this silence
Sometimes deep inside me
You still live by the water
Sometimes in the newspapers
I see you in photos
And me far from you
I live in a music box
Electric and fantastic
I live in a dream

The difference
Is this silence
Sometimes deep inside me
You're not always the most beautiful
And I remain unfaithful to you
But who can predict
The future of our memories
Yes, sometimes I miss you
Even if I don't say it
Love is made of this

Once upon a time
You and me
Never forget that
You and me!

Since I've been away from you
I feel like I'm far from myself
And I think of you over there
Yes, sometimes I miss you
Even if I don't say it
I think of you quietly...
