                     Je viens                          I am coming
                     Comme un chat                     Like a cat
                     Par la nuit si noire.             Through     the
                    night so black.
                     Tu attends,                       You         are
                    waiting,
                     Et je tombe                       And I fall
                     Dans tes ailes blanches, la-la-la...   your white
                                                       Into
                    wings, la-la-la...
                     Et je vole,                       And I fly,
                     Et je coule                       And I sink
                     Comme une plume.                  Like a feather.

                          Si les grands yeux de mon Dieu       If  the
                    great eyes of my God
                          Ne me gardaient pas,                Were not
                    watching (over) me,
                          Je te volerais                      I  would
                    steal you away.

                     Ne t'enfuis pas!                  Don't fly away!
                     Tu as des ailes,                  You have wings,
                     Le pouvoir de me quitter.         The   power  to
                    leave me.
                     Tu es tombe                       You fell
                     Du ciel comme un ange, la-la-la   From  the   sky
                    like an angel, la-la-la
                     Et j'ai peur                      And I'm afraid
                     Que le ciel                        That the sky
                     Te reprenne.                      Will  take  you
                    back.

                          Si les grands yeux de mon Dieu       If  the
                    great eyes of my God
                          Ne me gardaient pas,                 Weren't
                    watching (over) me,
                          Je te volerais.                     I  would
                    steal you away.

                     Je viens                          I am coming

                    night so black.

                               Je t'en prie,           I beg you,
                               Je t'en prie,           I beg you,

                               Pas!                    Away!

....I've never gotten around to formatting this the way I want.

Actually, I have a more-or-less complete collection of Kate lyrics, and
you can have those too if you want. Found the whole thing complete
someplace--can't remember just where.
