Jacques Bertin - At night we can't


Original Title: "La nuit on ne peut"
Year: 1977
At night, we can't really escape anymore
We enter a barn with a worrying framework like eternity
Childhood friends are sleeping in the hay
Sometimes one of them wakes up, and looks at me, and falls back asleep

There are some very young girls with whom I am madly in love
Some of their snow has remained on my shoulder
It has been so long and the snow remained
At night, we can't really escape anymore

I go out of my life on the quiet through the backdoor
Where are you? Where are you? Night uncovers and covers you, where are you?
Are you looking for me as well? Say
If we were going,
Like in the old days, to sleep in some chance decor with some good fires of scents
Would we be allowed to die there?

Lost children, punished children, are you roaming around the forbidden park
Where, night and day, God welcomes you just to give you the foretaste of return?
