La tendresse has beautiful lyrics. Marie laForet and Bourvil amongst others have interpreted this song:




one can live without richdom, almost without owning anything
there are too many gentlemen and princesses anyway
but to live without tenderness is impossible,
it really is not possible

one can live without fame, it doesnt prove anything,
to live being unknown in history and feeling good is fine
but to live without tenderness is impossible,
it really is not possible....

danielle Guichard (lyrics)

Thank you for pointing it out, Frankie. I'll edit with the name of the songs when it doesn't appear.

Yeap, it totally sounds French. ^^

Ensemble
Le même cri qui fait qu'on se ressemble
Et dans ce monde comme un oiseau blessé
Dans nos bras enlacés

Together
The same cry that makes us be alike
And in this world like a wounded bird
In our embraced arms

Julie Zenatti - La vie fait tout ce qu'elle veut

[ZUZi5mWar40]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ZUZi5mWar40[/video]

Et la vie fait tout ce qu'elle veut Le pire, le mieux Le pire et le mieux Oui la vie fait tout ce qu'elle veut, Le gris, le bleu Le gris et le bleu

And life does everything it wants to do The worst, the best The worst and the best Yes, life does everything it wants to do The grey, the blue The grey and the blue

Translation

on dit qu'il y fait toujours beau / they say it's always beautiful
on dit ca de l'autre bout du monde / at the end of the other world

j'avance seule dans le brouillard / I walk alone in the fog
c'est décidé ca y est, je pars / it's decided, that's it, I leave
je m'en vais a l'autre bout du monde / I go to the other end of the world

j'arrive sur les berges d'une rivière / I arrive at the banks of a river
une voix m'appelle, plus se perd / a voice calls me, then it fades away
c'est ta voix, a l'autre bout du monde / it's your voice

ta voix qui me dit mon trésor / your voice which tells me my precious
tout ce temps je n'étais pas mort / all this time I wasn't dead, no
je vivais a l'autre bout du monde / I was living at the other side of the world

sur la rivière il pleut de l'or / On the river it rains gold
entre mes bras je serre ton corps / I hold you tight against my body
tu es là a l'autre bout du monde / you are there, at the other side of the world

je te rejoins quand je m'endors / I will join you again when I fall asleep
mais je veux te revoir encore / but first I want to see you again
ou est il, l'autre bout du monde? / where is it, the other side of the world?
