Sarbacane Lyrics in English Francis Cabrel

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sarbacane by Francis Cabrel from French to English.
On croyait savoir tout sur l'amour depuis toujours
We thought we knew everything about love forever
Nos corps par cœur et nos cœurs au chaud dans le velours
Our bodies by heart and our hearts warm in the velvet
Et puis te voilà bout de femme, comme
And then here you are, the end of a woman, like
Soufflée d'une sarbacane
Blown from a blowgun
La ciel a même un autre éclat
The sky even has another shine
Depuis toi
Since you
Les hommes poursuivent ce temps qui court depuis toujours
Men pursue this time that has always been running
Voilà que t'arrives et que tout s'éclaire sur mon parcours
Here you come and everything about my journey becomes clear
Pendue à mon cou comme une liane
Hanging around my neck like a vine
Comme le roseau de la sarbacane
Like the reed of the blowgun
Le ciel s'est ouvert par endroits
The sky opened in places
Depuis toi
Since you
Pas besoin de phrases, ni de longs discours
No need for sentences or long speeches
Ça change tout dedans, ça change tout autour
It changes everything inside, it changes everything around
Fini les matins paupières en panne
No more broken eyelid mornings
Lourdes comme des bouteilles de butane
Heavy like butane bottles
J'ai presque plus ma tête à moi
I almost no longer have my own mind
Depuis toi
Since you
Pas besoin de faire de trop longs discours
No need to make too long speeches
Ça change tout dedans, ça change tout autour
It changes everything inside, it changes everything around
Pourvu que jamais tu ne t'éloignes
As long as you never move away
Plus loin qu'un jet de sarbacane
Further than a blowgun jet
J'ai presque plus ma tête à moi
I almost no longer have my own mind
Depuis toi
Since you
Alors te voilà bout de femme, comme
So here you are, the end of a woman, like
Soufflée d'une sarbacane
Blown from a blowgun
Le ciel s'est ouvert par endroits
The sky opened in places
Depuis toi
Since you
Hey, depuis toi!
Hey, since you!
