Helmut Lotti & Freddy Birset : Et Maintenant/What Now My Love.

Et maintenant, que vais-je faire
De tout le temps que sera ma vie ?
De tous ces gens qui m'indiffèrent
Maintenant que tu es parti.
Toutes les nuits, pourquoi, pour qui ?
Et ce matin qui revient pour rien.

Mon coeur qui bat, pour qui, pourquoi ?
Qui bat trop fort, trop fort.

What now my love
Now that it`s over
I feel the world closing in on me
Here comes the stars
Tumbling around me
And there`s the sky where the sea should be

Vous, mes amis,(what now my love) soyez gentils, (now that you're gone)
Vous savez bien(I'de be a fool) que l'on n'y (to go on) peut rien.(and on)
Même Paris (no one would care) crève d'ennui,(no one would cry)
Toutes ces rues (if I should live) me tuent.(or die)

What now my love
Now there is nothing

Only my last goodbye
Only my last goodbye

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Helmut Lotti's song "Et Maintenant/What Now My Love" express the feelings of heartbreak and loss after a significant relationship has ended. The singer questions what they will do with all the time that lies ahead of them, now that their loved one is no longer in their life. They reflect on the indifference they feel towards other people now that their heart is broken. The nights seem empty and they wonder who it is all for, and why they still have hope in the mornings. Their heart beats strongly, but they question who or what it beats for, as it feels too intense.

In the chorus, the singer asks what they should do now that everything has ended. They feel the weight of the world closing in on them, and they see the stars tumbling around them, symbolizing the chaos and confusion they feel. They mention the sky where the sea should be, indicating the loss of stability and direction in their life.

The second verse brings in the perspective of the singer's friends, who are aware of their pain and understand that nothing can be done to alleviate it. Even in a vibrant city like Paris, they feel ennui and indifference. The streets that used to bring them joy now only cause them agony, as they struggle with the reality of living or dying without their loved one.

The final chorus emphasizes the bleakness that has overcome the singer's life, as they have nothing left but to say their last goodbye. The lyrics capture the profound sense of emptiness, longing, and despair that follows the end of a love affair.
