Verse
The attic dust is thick and white.
La poussière au grenier est blanche et épaisse.
I find our old frame behind a suitcase.
Je trouve notre vieux cadre derrière une valise.
One corner still bears our dog's tooth marks.
Un coin porte encore les dents de notre chien.
I wrap it without choosing a photograph.
Je l'emballe sans choisir de photographie.
Chorus
Your sleeve hangs through the empty frame.
Ta manche traverse le cadre vide.
My crooked paper crown touches your hair.
Ma couronne en papier touche tes cheveux.
The camera catches us adjusting the corners.
L'appareil nous surprend en train d'ajuster les coins.
We keep that picture with our hands still visible.
Nous gardons cette photo avec nos mains encore visibles.
Verse
We spent last Christmas in different towns.
Nous avons passé Noël dernier dans des villes différentes.
Your name remained on my gift list.
Ton nom est resté sur ma liste de cadeaux.
Tonight you bring the dog through my doorway.
Ce soir tu ramènes le chien chez moi.
He sniffs the corner he once chewed.
Il renifle le coin qu'il a autrefois mâché.
Chorus
Your sleeve hangs through the empty frame.
Ta manche traverse le cadre vide.
My crooked paper crown touches your hair.
Ma couronne en papier touche tes cheveux.
The camera catches us adjusting the corners.
L'appareil nous surprend en train d'ajuster les coins.
We keep that picture with our hands still visible.
Nous gardons cette photo avec nos mains encore visibles.
Bridge
The glass is clear, the wood is old.
Le verre est clair, le bois est vieux.
We set the timer on the kitchen shelf.
Nous réglons le retardateur sur l'étagère de cuisine.
You lift the frame before I straighten my crown.
Tu lèves le cadre avant que j'ajuste ma couronne.
The dog pushes his nose between our elbows.
Le chien pousse son nez entre nos coudes.
Chorus
Your sleeve hangs through the empty frame.
Ta manche traverse le cadre vide.
My crooked paper crown touches your hair.
Ma couronne en papier touche tes cheveux.
The camera catches us adjusting the corners.
L'appareil nous surprend en train d'ajuster les coins.
We keep that picture with our hands still visible.
Nous gardons cette photo avec nos mains encore visibles.
Outro
We leave the tooth marks on the wooden corner.
Nous laissons les traces de dents sur le bois.
Our new photograph fits without any trimming.
Notre nouvelle photo entre sans être découpée.
