Je me souviens
De cette chambre en ce matin
Du lit défait
Et du silence assourdissant
Votre présence
Comme une absence, les yeux fuyants
Où étiez-vous ?
Où étiez-vous ?


Vous aviez
Un air perdu et si lointain
Vos yeux bleus
A peine voilés qui souriaient
Votre visage
Fermé au monde, en ce matin
Où étiez-vous ?
Où étiez-vous ?


Votre départ
Inéluctable et sans retour
Me déchirait
J’étais perdu, inconsolable
Me questionnait
Qu’avais-je fait de votre amour
Où étiez-vous ?
Où étiez-vous ?Where were you

I remember
That bedroom one morning
The bed unmaid
And the deafening silence
Your presence
Like an absence, furtive eyes
Where were you

You had
A look so lost so distant
Your blue eyesAs if veiled but smiling
Your face closed to the world
This morning

Where were you

Your leaving
Ineluctable, no return
Tore me apart
I was lost unconsolable
Left me with the question
What had I done with our love
Where were you
Where were you

Oh leave the curtains drawn
And don’t bother staying onLet me pretend that I’m not myself
For a little while, seeThen I’m back on my feetIn the same old skin I know so well
Oh leave me in my little tuneI promise I’ll be back soon
Oh it’s hard to get byWhen you’re afraid to crySo you close your lips and cast your eyes down
You’ve got so much to tell
And so much to yellSo why do you whisper still
Will you tell me if you get boredAnd you don’t feel like staying anymore
Oh and everytime you’re hereNo I don’t want you near,But I can’t take it when you’re gone
So leave me for a while
But leave me with a smileSo that I know you’ll be back for more
Oh please be patient with meThis is not how I wanted to be

Oh I’ll always be there
To show you that I careBut I’m just not very good with words
So I hope you’ll understand
That a squeeze of my hand
Means that I’m all yours
Oh please be patient with me
This is not how I wanted to be

And will you tell me if you get boredAnd you don’t feel like staying anymore
