Si J'avais Au Moins (Revu Ton Visage)
Mylène Farmer
If Only I Had Seen Your Face Again
Who hasn’t felt
Immense pain
Will only catch a glimpse
Of time
The slow ticking
Whether it snows or blows
The ever-present
Highlights your absence
Everywhere
Who hasn’t known
The unstable reign
Who hasn’t lost
Doesn’t know the ache
No more reserve, at all
Neither God nor hate, don’t care
No more pride, I’ve lost it all
To a sorrow
A darkening
All my demons
The most hostile
Break the voices
The most fragile
Of all my angels
The most devoted
And me, the strange lost one
Engaged to the darkening
If only I had
Seen your face again
Caught a glimpse from afar
Of the slightest cloud
But it’s to those
Who rise
That we owe hope
Who are said to bleed
Without a goodbye, to believe
And me, why do I exist
When the other says I’m dying
Why does nothing stir
Your heart
