i don't speak french, though i do love this song .
my question is : i thought "encore" meant again .
most translations have it as meaning "still"
i thought the object of her quest was for him to love her AGAIN ...

that's right, i agree with u
The best translation I've seen thus far.
Thank you. This is by far my favorite French language song of Celine's and, although I have a rudimentary understanding of the language, I've never quite gotten the full meaning of this song. Your translation beautifully captures the poetic images and sentiment of this beautiful song.
I just made my own translation and posted it here, but now I'm replacing my translation with a superior one. He or she says:
"Here's a rough translation. It's hard to translate French songs into English because they use a lot of poetic images that we don't use in English, so I tried to find a balance between saying what the song actually says and expressing the ideas behind the lyrics. "
