Jacques Bertin - The reaches


Original Title: "Les Biefs"
Year: 1982

The evening
When you topple over in the sky
Toward your nocturnal adventure,
I'd like to remember who I'm loving.

It's too late, the reaches are closed
Would I be as lonely with the chant of the poplars
When there will be noone left on earth

The evening
When you topple over in the sky,
Hope edged with its sorrows,
I'm drawing you with my hand
The reaches of the heart
Are only asleep

The song of the trees
is the life which holds us together
I'm everywhere
Looking after you on this earth

The evening
When you topple over in the sky,
The forehead burnt to the tomorrows,
I'm the air and the sleeping wind
The reaches of the heart
tremble until the morning

It's enough for me that you know me
attentive in the shadow
I'm never lonely
You do not forget about me

The reaches of the heart
trembles until morning

It's enough for me that you know me
attentive in the shadow
I'm never lonely
You do not forget about me
