Ange et démon
Original lyrics
Translation
Ange et démon
Angel and devil
Do you believe I'm an angel... or a devil?
It's my secret.
Nobody knows what I really am.
When the necklace of your hands slides around my neck
This temporary jewelry is too tight for my taste
My breath starts to fail
And then you loosen it (the jewelry)
I slide into your arms, there I am at your feet
More dead than is reasonable
My angel, my devil...
Refrain
Yes, it's love at first sight (literally: a thunderbolt)
You fell from the sky
And in taking my life you gave me wings
I'm angel and devil and ready to fight
And you flutter your wings and faint
The doors of hell and heaven
Don't really know what I am
An angel or a devil - whose crime is it anyway?
Should I be a temptation or just a victim?
If the doors of heaven don't want to open
You'll open your arms and I'll open my legs
My love, we'll bring forth a god for ourselves
An angel or a devil, that's not really the question
Refrain
Do you believe I'm an angel or a devil?
Refrain
I'm an angel and a devil, and that's my secret
I'm an angel and a devil, that was my secret
I'm an angel and a devil

Not familiar with the song itself, so my translation is pretty literal - hope it helps!
