[English]

I know everything about you

All about you

My friend

Come, I know everything about you

I know all about your life

God told me

My friend

Come, I know everything about you

Walk to death

But with you

My friend

By your side

Yes, I know everything about you

My heart keeps bleeding

Where you're going

My friend

My heart beats for you

Yes, I know everything about you

All about you

My friend

Come, I know everything about you

On Earth

Every night

With you

Everywhere by your side

I know all about your life

God told me

My friend

Come, I know everything about you

Walk to death

With you

My friend

Yes, we still believe

Up to now

In the night

By chance

Yes, I know everything about you

Yes, I take all of you

I know everything about you

Yes, I know everything about you

Put your hand in mine

And my body will disappear

The day of glory will come

Like that one

When we are free

One day you will tell them

I know everything about you

Yes, I know everything about you

One day you will tell them

God knows my story

[French]

Je sais de toi

Tout de toi

Mon amie

Viens, je sais tout de toi

Je sais tout de ta vie

Dieu m'a dit

Mon amie

Viens, je sais tout de toi

Marcher jusqu'à la mort

Mais avec toi

Mon amie

À ton bras

Oui je sais tout de toi

Toujours mon coeur saigne

Où tu vas

Mon amie

Mon coeur bat pour toi

Oui je sais tout de toi

Tout de toi

Mon amie

Viens, je sais tout de toi

Sur la terre

Chaque nuit

Avec toi

Partout à ton bras

Je sais tout de ta vie

Dieu m'a dit

Mon amie

Viens, je sais tout de toi

Marcher jusqu'à la mort

Avec toi

Mon amie

Oui on y croit encore

Jusqu'ici

Dans la nuit

Au hasard

Oui je sais tout de toi

Oui je prends tout de toi

Je sais tout de toi

Oui je sais tout de toi

Mets ta main dans la mienne

Et mon corps disparaîtra

Le jour de gloire sera

Comme celui-là

Quand nous serons libres

Un jour tu leurs diras

Je sais tout de toi

Oui je sais tout de toi

Un jour tu leur diras

Dieu sait mon histoire
