There are more than two thousand of them
Yet I can only see those two people
It seems that the rain
Has bound them together
There are more than two thousand of them
Yet I can only see those two people
And I know they're speaking
He must be telling her, "I love you!"
She must be telling him, "I love you!"
I guess they are
Not promising anything to each other
Those two people are too thin
To be dishonest
There are more than two thousand of them
Yet I can only see those two people
And suddenly, he cries
He cries in gushing spurts
However surrounded they are
By fatty men in sweat
And hope-eaters
Who are pointing their nose at them
But those two broken hearts
Proud in sorrow
Leave the dogs
The feat to judge them
*
Life is merciless
And that's bloody sad
Orly, on sunday
With or without Bécaud* !
*
And now they're crying
I mean, the two of them
Just before, it was him
When I was saying "he"
They're so embedded
That they can't hear anything
But each other's sobs
And then
And then, infinitely
Like two praying bodies
Infinitely, slowly
Those two bodies separate
And in separating
Those two bodies are torn
And I swear they yell
And then, they take each other again
Become together as one again
Become fire again
And then are torn again
Holding each other's look
And then, as they step backward
As the tide goes out
He consumes this goodbye
He spits some words
Vaguely waving a hand
And suddenly, he flees
Flees without turning back
And then, he disappears
Swallowed by the stairs
*
And then, he disappears
Swallowed by the stairs
And she stays there
With her heart crossed, gawping
Without a shout, without a word
She knows her death
She's just crossed its path
She then turns back
Once again
Her arms are stretched to the ground
Here she goes, she's a thousand years old!
The door is closed again
She's hence in the dark
She spins around
And she already knows
Then she'll always spin
She lost several men
But thereupon she loses love
Love told her
Inanity comes back
She'll be living from plans
That will always be left unstarted
She's fragile again
Before she's for sale
I'm here, I follow her
I don't dare anything for her
Whom the crowd is nibling
Like any old fruit
