Prayer to dreams

Say, is it really you, my love?
Or am I still dreaming of your skin, of your words
Sleeping close by my side
No don’t wake up, listen
Night is coming to an end
The sound from out there is slipping through the window like a breeze
 
Sleep, in my sheets
Stay for a while in this dream
Where we dance, where we run
Where our hearts take a break
 
Give me, give me
A few more of your words
[A little more] of your bum, of your arms
A little more of you
Don’t go away, don’t go away
I want that these hours last
That the hands[ of the clock] capture the sound of our voices
 
Give me, give me
A few more of your words
A little more of you bum, of your arms
A little more of you
Don’t go away, don’t go away
I wish the hours could last
That the hands[ of the clock] could capture the sound of our voices
 
Sleep until the morning so that the dream goes on forever
Your presence, your absence, all get mixed up, all get muddled up
In me
 
So
If it is not us
Tell me on whose lips
I will leave the taste
Of my tongue, of my salt, of my excitement
Sleep, I will forget that I love you
Let’s love, tomorrow it will be blurry and finally
I will know that I dreamed of you again and again

"Où l'on dance, où l'on cours" : typos in the French text (Où l'on danse, où l'on court)
J'aimerais que durent les heures : the 2nd time you translated it better ("I wish the hours could last")
Dors jusqu'au jour, que s'éternise le rêve : Sleep until morning (dawn), so that the dream goes on forever
