Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Longtemps by Amir from French to English.

I want problems

I want your troubles to become mine

I want you to throw your storms, your pains in my face

For torrential nights

I want us to learn each other

I want to share your joys, your migraines

Your body makes me dizzy and your hands take me

Where nothing bothers us

I could tattoo our story on my arm

Get into nice sheets if you're with me

It's you in this crazy world

I know it, that's all

And I'd like it to last a long time

Wear my skin on yours

One day I'll forget everything, even my name, I'll just know

That you're here, that you're beautiful, that you're mine

I'd like it to last a hundred years

So reason never reaches

This confession, this urge to dream together anyway

Until one day both our eyes go dark

My obvious truth

You're my smile and my chance card

I want us to mess around, take off, go crazy, dance

Till the last silence

I'll hit the street if you need a roof

I could live naked so you're a bit less cold

It's you in this crazy world

I know it, that's all

And I'd like it to last a long time

Wear my skin on yours

One day I'll forget everything, even my name, I'll just know

That you're here, that you're beautiful, that you're mine

I'd like it to last a hundred years

So reason never reaches

This confession, this urge to dream together anyway

Until one day both our eyes go dark

And I'd like it to last a long time

Wear my skin on yours

One day I'll forget everything, even my name, I'll just know

That you're here, that you're beautiful, that you're mine

I'd like it to last a hundred years

So reason never reaches

This confession, this urge to dream together anyway

Until one day both our eyes go dark

SONG MEANING

In “Longtemps,” Amir celebrates a love so powerful that nothing is off-limits. He begs to carry his partner’s troubles, dance with her joys, and even brave torrential nights together. From tattooing their story on his arm to walking the streets bare just to warm her, he declares her his smile, his lucky card, and the single certainty in a world gone mad.

The chorus zooms in on one simple wish: may this love last a very long time—a lifetime, maybe a hundred years—until their eyes finally close. Amir dreams of forgetting everything, even his own name, as long as her skin is against his. Logic can knock on the door all it wants; the couple would rather stay inside their shared dream, where passion, pain, laughter, and hope fuse into one endless embrace.
