Le fleuve Lyrics in English Noir Désir

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le fleuve by Noir Désir from French to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Quand la nuit s'étend, elle se laisse tomber au hasard
When the night stretches, she lets herself down at random
Elle enveloppe et elle sape les carcasses atroces
It envelops and undermines the excruciating carcasses
Et si tu peux te perdre du côté du fleuve
And if you can get lost on the side of the river
Il te calmera jusqu'à ce que tu ne puisses plus respirer
He'll calm you down until you can't breathe
Comme elle est belle la ville et ses lumières seulement pour les fous
How beautiful the city is and its lights only for the crazy
Celui qui veut, il la découpe en tableaux
Whoever wants to, he cuts it into paintings
Là c'est l'heure où le silence balance sur les eaux du fleuve
This is the time when silence is thrly on the waters of the river
Le rythme des horloges qui pourrissent
The rhythm of rotting clocks
Y'a là-bas cette fille qui enfle son souffle et ses jupes
There's this girl out there swelling her breath and skirts
Ouvertes comme des corolles en suspens
Open as outstanding corollas
Plus elle danse, plus elle flambe, plus il l'aime, lui, comme il sent
The more she dances, the more she blazes, the more he loves her, as he feels
Que no se puede, la vida no vale nada
Que no se puede, la vida no vale nada
