J'ai toujours eu trop de pudeur
I've always had too much modesty
Pour laisser courir sur mes lèvres
To let it run over my lips
Ces expressions très souvent mièvres
These very often cutesy expressions
Inscrites au Littré du bonheur
Registered with the Littré du bonheur
Je sais bien que tu aimerais
I know you would like
Que mon souffle soit poétique
May my breath be poetic
Mais si j'étais plus romantique
But if I was more romantic
Dis-moi ce que ça changerait
Tell me what would change
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
À ma manière, à ma façon
My way, my way
Depuis le temps que nous vivons
Since the time that we live
Même amour et même bohème
Same love and same bohemian
Je t'aime, je t'aime, je t'aime
I love you I love you I love you
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
Et je t'interdis d'en douter
And I forbid you to doubt it
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
Comme je n'ai jamais aimé
Like I never loved
Je n'ai jamais eu le talent
I never had the talent
D'utiliser je te l'accorde
To use I grant you
Ces mots usés jusqu'à la corde
These threadbare words
Galvaudés par plus d'un amant
Overused by more than one lover
Mais j'ai des phrases au bout des doigts
But I have sentences at my fingertips
Qui la nuit à ton corps s'adressent
Who at night turn to your body
Et quand ils parlent en caresses
And when they talk in caresses
Ils le font bien mieux que ma voix
They do it much better than my voice
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
À main tremblante, à mots couverts
With trembling hands, with covered words
Quand sur le vélin de ta chair
When on the vellum of your flesh
Je grave mes plus beaux poèmes
I engrave my most beautiful poems
Je t'aime, je t'aime, je t'aime
I love you I love you I love you
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
Et bien que je sois maladroit
And although I'm clumsy
Idiote je t'aime
silly i love you
Et n'aimerai jamais que toi
And will never love you
