Translation

It's from here that I write to you

A cup of tea
The chair is a bit wobbly
It's not that tidy
I know
 
Nothing's too original
The piano is tuned
At the windows (there's) a sky, stars
 
I escape
 
[Tune:]
It's from here, from this nest that I tell you my life
All my denials, my envies
That I wait, that I hear passionately
That I pray
Undecided, undoubtedly I have so many "What if"
My tears, I dedicate them to you
It's from here, from this nest
from here that I'm writing you
 
If you want to visit
I can show you around in a flash
I like this summer light
 
Strange machines
Blue crossed off notebooks
There this was my first guitar
You see
 
[Tune:]
It's from here, from this nest that I tell you my life
All my denials, my envies
That I wait, that I hear passionately
That I pray
Undecided, undoubtedly I have so much "What if"
My tears, I dedicate them to you
It's from here, from this nest
From here that I'm writing you
 
It's from here, through these nights, through these double lives that words and melodies are born
 
From here to infinity I'll be telling you 'thank you"
 
It's from here this night, from here that I'm writing you

On en fait vite le tour > I can show you around in a flash (or at least this is what I understand)
Là c'était > There this was
des ces nuits ...> through these nights, through ...
D'ici qu'à l'infinie je vous redirez > From here to infinity I'll be telling you (time after time)
