"While I'm Still Young" lyrics

"While I'm Still Young"

With the brushing of our shoulders
I lived a life with you
We had a son or daughter who had my eyes
And your laughter echoed after you

All of this in a brief stare
A fleeting glimpse of happiness shared
That made our bodies burn and shiver
As we passed each other unaware

I am not to think of your face, of your name
For when I do, you are there

Lying next to another
I can only wonder

Laissez mon coeur vous abondonner
Depuis je suis encore jeune
