Le Temps Qu'il Nous Reste

What does it matter the time we have left
We'll have the chance to grow old together
In the depths of your eyes lives my tenderness
In the depths of my heart lives your youth
Like a prayer from childhood days
These words on your lips give me confidence
I picture us, your hand in mine
Our every smile will say I love you
But one of us will leave first
He'll close his eyes forever
In one last smile
And the other, losing half of his life
Will stay every day in the night
His heart will surely beat, but for whom, and why?
Your footsteps echo, the door creaks open
My heart races, and I find you again
When our hands hold, I forget everything else
I even feel like time stops
But one of us will leave first
He'll close his eyes forever
In one last smile
One day, one of us will be too tired
Will leave almost happy, the first to go
And the other will linger, come to find him again
I picture us, your hand in mine
Our every smile will say I love you
