Longtemps Lyrics in English Amir

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Longtemps by Amir from French to English.
I want problems
I want your troubles to become mine
I want you to throw your storms, your pains in my face
For torrential nights
I want us to learn each other
I want to share your joys, your migraines
Your body makes me dizzy and your hands take me
Where nothing bothers us
I could tattoo our story on my arm
Get into nice sheets if you're with me
It's you in this crazy world
I know it, that's all
And I'd like it to last a long time
Wear my skin on yours
One day I'll forget everything, even my name, I'll just know
That you're here, that you're beautiful, that you're mine
I'd like it to last a hundred years
So reason never reaches
This confession, this urge to dream together anyway
Until one day both our eyes go dark
My obvious truth
You're my smile and my chance card
I want us to mess around, take off, go crazy, dance
Till the last silence
I'll hit the street if you need a roof
I could live naked so you're a bit less cold
It's you in this crazy world
I know it, that's all
And I'd like it to last a long time
Wear my skin on yours
One day I'll forget everything, even my name, I'll just know
That you're here, that you're beautiful, that you're mine
I'd like it to last a hundred years
So reason never reaches
This confession, this urge to dream together anyway
Until one day both our eyes go dark
And I'd like it to last a long time
Wear my skin on yours
One day I'll forget everything, even my name, I'll just know
That you're here, that you're beautiful, that you're mine
I'd like it to last a hundred years
So reason never reaches
This confession, this urge to dream together anyway
Until one day both our eyes go dark

SONG MEANING

In “Longtemps,” Amir celebrates a love so powerful that nothing is off-limits. He begs to carry his partner’s troubles, dance with her joys, and even brave torrential nights together. From tattooing their story on his arm to walking the streets bare just to warm her, he declares her his smile, his lucky card, and the single certainty in a world gone mad.

The chorus zooms in on one simple wish: may this love last a very long time—a lifetime, maybe a hundred years—until their eyes finally close. Amir dreams of forgetting everything, even his own name, as long as her skin is against his. Logic can knock on the door all it wants; the couple would rather stay inside their shared dream, where passion, pain, laughter, and hope fuse into one endless embrace.
