Et Maintenant
Gilbert Becaud
And Now
And now what am I gonna do
With all this time that will be my life
With all these people who don't mean a thing
Now that you’re gone
All these nights, for what, for whom
And this morning that comes back for nothing
This heart that beats, for whom, for what
Beats too hard, too hard
And now what am I gonna do
To what void will my life slide
You left me the whole wide world
But the world without you is so small
You, my friends, be kind
You know well that there's nothing we can do
Even Paris is dying of boredom
All its streets are killing me
And now what am I gonna do
I’ll laugh to stop the tears
I’ll burn through entire nights
In the morning I’ll hate you
And then one evening in my mirror
I’ll see the end of the road
Not a flower and no tears
At the moment of goodbye
I really have nothing left to do
I really have nothing left
