Most beautiful lyrics of all!

I found this topic very cool because I found some of my all time faves that I kind of forgot about and some new cool songs. Still, I can't believe no one mentioned this one...

Queen-Love of my life

Love of my life, you hurt me,
You've broken my heart, and now you leave me.

Love of my life can't you see,
Bring it back bring it back,
Don't take it away from me,
Because you don't know what it means to me.

Love of my life don't leave me,
You've stolen my love now desert me,

Love of my life can't you see,
Bring it back bring it back,
Don't take it away from me,
Because you don't know what it means to me.

You will remember when this is blown over,
And everything's all by the way,
When I grow older,
I will be there at your side,
To remind you how I still love you
I still love you.

Hurry back hurry back,
Don't take it away from me,
Because you don't know what it means to me.

Love of my life,
Love of my life.

Indifference - Pearl Jam ---- * I recommend listening to this song *

I will light the match this mornin', so I won't be alone
Watch as she lies silent, for soon light will be gone
Oh, I will stand arms outstretched, pretend I'm free to roam
Oh, I will make my way, through, one more day in Hell...
How much difference does it make
How much difference does it make, yeah...

I will hold the candle till it burns up my arm
Oh, I'll keep takin' punches until their will grows tired
Oh, I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind
Hey, I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind
How much difference does it make
Mmm, how much difference does it make...how much difference...

I'll swallow poison, until I grow immune
I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room
How much difference (2x)

"Better Together" by Jack Johnson

There's no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
No song that I could sing
But I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a, shoebox of photographs
With sepiatone loving
Love is the answer,
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Like why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and
Sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together

[Chorus:]
MMM it's always better when we're together
Yeah, we'll look at them stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

And all of these moments
Just might find their way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone
When the morning light sings
And brings new things
For tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too
Too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way
Into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression
I was somewhere in between
With only two
Just me and you
Not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be
We'll Sit beneath the mango tree now

It's always better when we're together
Mmmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

MMmmmm MMMmmmm Mmmmmm
I believe in memories
They look so, so pretty when I sleep
Hey now, and when I wake up,
You look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time,
And there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no, combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together.




and for sure..


"The Dance" by Garth Brooks

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance

Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have changed it all

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance

Yes my life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain but I'd have had to miss the dance

La La La La La ,La La La La, La La La La, La La La La, La La La La, La La La La, La La La La,

Eat, sleep,
And breathe it you're full of the stuff
Go bag it, tie it up tight
Wheat,meat, dairy free, t-total happy-clappy,
High on life, you should try it you know

Go on while no one's looking

A-ha! caught you now!
Caught red handed in the biscuit tin!
Cost you to keep me quiet

Golden boy boots
Pocket pedal stool
Picking sharp smart moves
Plastic, tin can, paper seperator
Busy bee wave, wave 'save the planet' flag
But sneaky in suburbia

A-ha! candid camera!
Hook, line and sinker for the four-wheel drive
Cost you to keep me quiet!

Nicest sweetest
Utmost in everything
It's so charming, very charming
Well read, can play the fool
No one's ill at ease and put their
Deepest swiss bank trust in you

No one saw it coming

Aaaha! Aaaaaha! Aaaaaaaha!
You killed a man
Cost you to keep me quiet

From morning to night, I stayed out of sight
Didn't recognize I'd become
No more than alive I'd barely survive
In a word...overrun

Won't hear a sound
From my mouth
I've spent too long
On the inside out
My skin is cold
To the human touch
This bleeding heart's
Not beating much

CHOR:
He's curled into the corner
But still the screen is flickering
With an endless stream of garbage to...
curse the place
In a sea of random images
The self-destructing animal
Waiting for the waves to break

I murmured a vow of silence and now
I don't even hear when I think aloud
Extinguished by the light I turn on the night
Wear its darkness with an empty smile

I'm creeping back to life
My nervous system all awry
I'm wearing the inside out

CHOR:
Look at him now
He's paler somehow
But he's coming around
He's starting to choke
It's been so long since he spoke
Well he can have the words right from my mouth

And with these words I can see
Clear through the clouds that covered me
Just give it time then speak my name
Now we can hear ourselves again

I'm holding out
For the day
When all the coulds
Have blown away
I'm with you now
Can speak your name
Now we can hear
Ourselves again

CHOR:
He's standing on the threshold
Caught in fiery anger
And hurled into the furnace he'll...curse the place
He's torn in all directions
And still the screen is flickering
Waiting for the flames to break

German translation:


DAS INNERE NACH AUSSEN TRAGEN

Vom Morgen an bis in die Nacht,
blieb ich ausser Sicht
erkannte nicht, was aus mir werden würde
Ich bin nicht mehr, als gerade so am Leben
- ein eigentliches Überleben
in einem Wort..... wie überrollt

Kein Klang ist hörbar aus meinem Mund
denn ich verbrachte zu lange Zeit - in meiner inneren Seite draussen
meine Haut ist erkaltet für jede menschliche Berührung
dieses blutende Herz schlägt kaum noch

CHOR:
Er kauert in einer Ecke, doch der Bildschirm flackert noch
mit einem endlosen Strom von Müll - Verflucht sei dieser Ort
In einem Meer von zufälligen Bildern wartet das selbstzerstörerische Tier
Auf den Durchbruch der Wellen

Ich murmelte ein Schweige-Gelübde und nun
Höre ich mich nicht einmal mehr, wenn ich laut denke
Abgelöscht vom Tageslicht, mache ich die Nacht zum Tag
und trage deren Dunkelheit mit einem leeren Lächeln

Nun krieche ich zurück ins Leben
Mein nervöser Organismus läuft völlig verkehrt
ich trage meine Innere Seite nach Aussen


Schaut ihn jetzt an - er ist irgendwie bleicher geworden
aber er kommt langsam zu sich
er fängt an zu würgen, denn er hat so lange nicht gesprochen
doch ich spreche die Worte in seinem Namen

Und mit diesen Worten sehe ich nun
Klar durch die Wolken, die mich bedeckten
Gib mir nur ein wenig Zeit und flüstere meinen Namen
dann werden wir wieder unsere Stimmen hören können

Ich halte Ausschau, nach dem Tag
wenn alle Wolken weggeblasen werden
ich bin nun mit dir
kann deinen Namen aussprechen
und endlich können wir uns gegenseitig
wieder verstehen

CHOR:
Er steht auf der Schwelle, gefangen in glühendem Zorn
Und in den Ofen geworfen, wird er... diesen Ort verfluchen
Er ist zerrissen in alle Richtungen - und der Bildschrim flackert immer noch
wartend - dass die Flammen brechen

Song title Kites

Artist Simon Dupree & The Big Sound
Album Kites


I will fly a yellow paper sun in your sky
When the wind is high, when the wind is high
I will float a silken silver moon near your window
If your night is dark, if your night is dark

In letters of gold on a snow white kite
I will write "I love you"
And send it soaring high above you
For all to read

I will scatter rice paper stars in your heaven
If there are no stars, if there are no stars
All of these and seven wonders more will I find
When the wind is high, when the wind is high

In letters of gold on a snow white kite
I will write "I love you"
And send it soaring high above you
For all to read

[...Chinese words...]

In letters of gold on a snow white kite
I will write "I love you"
And send it soaring high above you
For all to read

I'm enamoured with the turns of phrase in The RZA's "Ode to O-Ren Ishii"; some of it is just amazingly beautiful ("cut your day short like the winter solstice") and it creates this gorgeous image of this warrior-woman.

Hey yo, I wanna dedicate this song right here to O-Ren Ishi
Half-Chinese, half-Japanesee
Half American, and yo, oh what a specie
Of feminine perfection, she got the sinister cat eyes, and little freckles on the complexion
Chief of tha Yakuza, but she's wicked like Medusa
And she got crazy 88 killers thata slice right through ya
Quick to chop a head off, then wipe the blood off
Long-range sniper shot she bust, never let a dud off
Ya gotta minute to pray, and a second to die
You can see the image of the devil reflected inside her eye
But since she was a little girl, yo, she never would cry
She seen so much tragedy, let me explain to you why
She grew up onna military base, where she had to face the brutality of her mother and her father being erased
The blood drops are her tear drops on her cheek, you see the smear spots
She silently watched as the shogun sliced through her dear pops
Through his thick skull
Now she's vicious like a pit bull and when it comes to hatred and revenge she got a **** full
Revenge is the fire that burns inside your soul
And yo, she been busting up knee-caps, son, since the age of eleven
But ****ing an enemy to death, that was her favorite weapon
And the debt you paid in hell, boy it can't be paid in heaven
You better get down on your knees son and start praying to the reverend
Bon appetite
Boy, revenge is so sweet
Especially when it's served in a cold dish
But she has no wish, but to cut your day short like the winter solstice
And a chance to receive a slight bit of mercy from her was hopeless
O-Ren Ishi
Half-Chinese, half-Japanesee
Half American, and yo, oh what a specie

Emilie Autumn also writes some wicked lyrics, but I think "Dead Is The New Alive" is my favorite, lyrically. How can you get more epic than "Take me now or take me never" and "Say goodbye or say forever"?

Dead is the new alive
Despair's the new survival
A pointless point of view
Give in, give in, give in, give in
You play the game
You'll never win

Dead is the new alive
Life's only living rival
A casket built for two
Give in, give in, give in, give in
You play the game
You'll never win

So take me now or take me never
I won't wait
You're already late
So say goodbye or say forever
Choose your fate
How else can we survive?
Dead is the new alive

Dead is the new alive
A gothic play revival
The last act of the show
Give in, give in, give in, give in
You play the game
You never win

So take me now or take me never
I won't wait
You're already late
So say goodbye or say forever
Choose your fate
How else can we survive?
Dead is the new alive

What is a day without a blessed night?
And what is peace without a blessed fight?
What is a day without a blessed night?
And what is peace without a blessed, blessed, blessed fight?
A quick taste of the poison, a quick twist of the knife
When the obsession with death
The obsession with death becomes a way of life
A quick taste of the poison, a quick twist of the knife
When the obsession with death
The obsession with death becomes a way of life

Согдиана - Синее небо
Sogdiana - Sinee nebo (Blue sky)

По стеклу вожу
Поцелуй рисую твой,
Слов не нахожу
От того, что ты с другой,
А моя душа -
Раскалённый шар!

Ты в глазах моих
Слов любви не прочитал,
Счастья на двоих
Разделить с тобой не дал...
Небо высоко -
Счастье далеко...

Плачут небеса,
Вторя сердцу моему...
На душе гроза,
И понятно, почему...
Если ты вдали
От моей любви.

От себя бежать
Не желаю больше я!
Жизнь перелистать
И опять начать с нуля
Я могу теперь!
Я открою дверь!

Это синее-синее небо
Над головой!
Это синее-синее небо
Рядом со мной
За собою зовёт,
За собою ведёт.
Синее-синее небо -
Только вперёд!
Это синее-синее небо
Над головой!
Это синее-синее небо
Кто-то другой
Мне навстречу идёт,
Параллельно живёт,
Телом, душою скучает,
Любит и ждет..

The song that always gives me life when I'm like losing it...

Τα καράβια μου καίω
τα καράβια μου καίω - τα καίω
δε θα πάω πουθενά.
Μπρος στα πόδια σου κλαίω
μη μ΄αφήσεις σου λέω - σου λέω
να σ΄αφήσω ξανά.
Κι ας μη μου ΄χεις χαρίσει ποτέ
ένα χάδι ως τώρα
πάντα εδώ θα γυρνώ.
Από πείσμα και τρέλα θα ζω
σε τούτη τη χώρα
ώσπου να ΄βρω νερό
γιατί ανήκω εδώ.
Τα παιδιά στην κερκίδα
είναι η μόνη σου ελπίδα - ελπίδα
πρωινός ουρανός
Σταυρωμένη πατρίδα
μες στα μάτια σου είδα -αχ είδα
της ανάστασης φως.
Κι ας μη μου ΄χεις χαρίσει ποτέ
ένα χάδι ως τώρα
πάντα εδώ θα γυρνώ.
Από πείσμα και τρέλα θα ζω
σε τούτη τη χώρα
ώσπου να ΄βρω νερό
γιατί ανήκω εδώ.
Όποιος σε δει
για μια στιγμή
δίχως του πένθους
το μαύρο μανδύα.
Θα ΄σαι εσύ
θεά γυμνή
η αμαρτία του
κι η τιμωρία.
Σαν οπτασία
για μια ζωή.
Κι ας μη μου ΄χεις χαρίσει ποτέ
ένα χάδι ως τώρα
πάντα εδώ θα γυρνώ.
Από πείσμα και τρέλα θα ζω
στην έρημη χώρα
ώσπου να ΄βρω νερό
γιατί ανήκω εδώ.

Siddharta - Baroko

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZL4TTqQQvc

Ste videli lepote, ko jutro naredi
Srebrne bisere rose
Ste videli lepote, ko sredi noči
Zapiha veter samote
Rosa, reke in morja
Pridejo zopet z neba
A le nate sem milijone let mirno čakal, da prideš

Vso noč bo naju dva luna skrivala
Zavija cesta za raj
Vso noč bo dvigalo čudežno
Šla bova iz mesta nad nebesa

Še zdaj ne vem kako je v tej norosti
Prav naju združilo vesolje
Še zdaj ne vem kako se v oblaku melodij
Izbere zate prave note
A najlepše besede lovim in jih zate krojim

Сигнал - В друго време, в друг свят

Как да си взема сбогом със тебе,
писма не стигат, там където днес си ти.
Ти имаш време, аз само спомен
Ще те намеря, чуй китарата звъни

Ден след ден, беше близо ти бе до мен
миг след миг, днес часовника пак върви
Спомени .. с тях съм сега богат
Чакай ме, в друго време, в друг свят

Как да си взема сбогом със тебе
писма не стигат, там където днес си ти

Може би, песента ми към теб лети,
Чуваш ли, как китарата пак звъни
Виждам те в звездите над всеки град
Чакай ме, в друго време, в друг свят

Ще те намеря, ще те намеря, ще те намеря
В друго време, в друг свят.

The most beautiful lyrics to me are the words to "Lullabies", by All Time Low. They are about the singer, Alex Gaskarth's, late brother who after getting in a fight with Alex, stormed from the house and killed himself. They are very sentimental and after I learned this, I cried when I heard the song again.

Make it a sweet, sweet goodbye -
it could be for the last time
and it's not right.
"Don't let yourself get in over your head," he said.
Alone and far from home I'll find you...

Dead - Like a candle you burned out;
spill the wax over the spaces left in place of angry words.
Scream - To be heard,
like you needed any more attention;
throw the bottle, break the door, and disappear.

Sing me to sleep,
I'll see you in my dreams,
waiting to say,
"I miss you. I'm so sorry."

Forever's never seemed so long
as when you're not around
it's like a piece of me is missing.
I could have learned so much from you
but what's left now?
Don't you realize you shot this family a world of pain?
Can't you see there could have been a happy ending we let go?

Sing me to sleep,
I'll see you in my dreams,
waiting to say,
"I miss you. I'm so sorry."

Sing me to sleep.
Sing me to sleep.
Sing me to sleep.
Sing me to s...

Sing me to sleep
(You've taken so much with you...)
I'll see you in my dreams,
(But left the worst with me...),
waiting to say,
"I miss you. I'm so sorry."
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

One of the best and most touching lyrics of recent (in my opinion). I'm not a fan of country but this is fantastic! Just reading the lyrics doens't do this song justice. The way she sings it is what really makes the lyrics come to life. I would take the time to youtube it. Lee Ann Womack's "I Hope You Dance":


I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat
But always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking
Lovin' might be a mistake
But it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart
Leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out
Reconsider
Give the heavens above
More than just a passing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
Dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
I hope you dance
(Where those years have gone)

(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

We can make you understand,
We can make you understand,

Play with me,
You can make the love and I'll make the money,
Stay with me,
Shut out the world, live underneath the city.

Release cold gender bombs,
on chromonial closets, middle England.


Stay with me.
I'll be Peter Pan and you just be pretty.

To the great and the petrified,
We all fall down.
To the slaves and the civilized,
We all fall down.
To the lovers we left behind.
The bad days, the good nights.
In the great shipwreck of life,
We all fall down.

Born we are,
Between the hard black rock and the code of the immortal.
Torn from cars
From the flames of the brave and the blossom we can’t return to.

We light up the bars of the world
with the decadent essence of innocence.

Free but sharp,
We can be the satellite guiding through the dark hole.

To the great and the petrified,
We all fall down.
To the slaves and the civilised,
We all fall down.
To the lovers we left behind.
The bad days, the good nights.
In the great shipwreck of life,
We all fall down.

Manifesto, black fire.
We can make you understand.
Of liberty and bright light,
We could make you understand,
We could make you understand,
We could make you understand!


To the great and the petrified,
We all fall down.
To the slaves and the civilised,
We all fall down.
To the lovers we left behind.
The bad days, the good nights.
In the great shipwreck of life,
We all fall down.

We can make you understand,
We can make you understand...

I think this is one of the best lyrics that I've ever known.. though it is translated from Spanish.. The original song is "Que me quedes tú" by Shakira Mebarak (writer & performer)
here r the lyrics in english:

Even if all the news channels got ruined
by how much I hate TV
Even if smiles went out of style
And all the sunsets were extinguished
Even if doctrines and duties were covered up
Even if action movies stopped
Even if pleasures in life were destroyed
And even if one final song was written today

Just as long as you stay with me
And the feeling of your embrace remains,
as well as the kiss you reinvent each day
And as long as your essence, your melancholy
remains here in this place forever
after the sunset
Because I do, I do
depend on you
And if you were to stay with me
So would life itself

Even if all my neighbors vanished
and the remains of my innocence were eaten up
Even if my friends went away one by one
and my scrap of a conscience was bothered
Even if words were consumed in lips
Even if all the water on the planet got contaminated
or if the philanthropists and wise ones renounced their ways
And even if all up until the last poet died

Just as long as you stay with me
And the feeling of your embrace remains,
as well as the kiss you reinvent each day
And as long as your essence, your melancholy
remains here in this place forever
after the sunset
Because I do, I do
depend on you
And if you were to stay with me
So would life itself...



what do u think?

Muse - Unintended

On a read, I suppose these lyrics seem overly simple. Probably half of the song is in the singing. But to begin with, the syllabic rhythm is very exact without forcing or twisting anything.
But even more notable, to me, is that 'Unintended' has as much verbally compressed emotion as any song I've ever heard.
Maybe it's important to have experienced a soul-shattering breakup ... or two, or ten ... and then found something that is so unbelievably beautiful, and so totally unexpected ...... and unintended ... that you're not yet able to handle it?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Goc96ZNtck

You could be my unintended
choice to live my life extended
You could be the one I'll always love ...
You could be the one who listens
to my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one I'll always love ...

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken
pieces of the life I had before ...

First there was the one who challenged
all my dreams and all my balance
(S)he could never be as good as you
You could be my unintended
choice to live my life extended
You should be the one I'll always love.

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken
pieces of the life I had before ...

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken
pieces of the life I had before ...

before you .........

@Angeliki: This needs a follow from the song you posted ...

God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
...
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

Ween - stay forever

In the morning sun, I couldn't tell you
I couldn't tell you so many things
About how much I really love you
About how much you really mean
So far away but it's so easy to see you
When I'm away I want to put my arms around you
And I want to know - do you feel the same way?
'Cause if you do I want to stay forever
And I want to know - do you feel the same way?
'Cause if you do I want to stay forever
With you

So many colors that surround you
Some so bright I can hardly see
A light reflects on all the things that make you real
Things that make you truly free

So far away but it's so easy to see you
When I'm away I want to put my arms around you
And I want to know - do you feel the same way?
'Cause if you do I want to stay forever
And I want to know - do you feel the same way?
'Cause if you do I want to stay forever
With you

Probably not the most beautiful but should certainly get a mention

Jimmy Eat World - Hear You Me (May Angels Lead You In)

There's no one in town I know
You gave us some place to go
I never said thank you for that
I thought I might get one more chance

What would you think of me now,
So lucky, so strong, so proud?
Never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance

May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go
May angels lead you in

So what would you think of me now
So lucky, so strong, so proud?
I never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance

May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go
May angels lead you in


May angels lead you in
May angels lead you in
May angels lead you in
May angels lead you in

And if you were with me tonight
I'd sing to you just one more time
A song for a heart so big
God couldn't let it live

May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go
May angels lead you in

May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go
May angels lead you in

On sleepless roads, the sleepless go
May angels lead you in

J'ai compris tous les mots, j'ai bien compris, merci
Raisonnable et nouveau, c'est ainsi par ici
Que les choses ont changé, que les fleurs ont fané
Que le temps d'avant, c'était le temps d'avant
Que si tout zappe et lasse, les amours aussi passent

J'irai chercher ton coeur si tu l'emportes ailleurs
Même si dans tes danses d'autres dansent tes heures
J'irai chercher ton âme dans les froids dans les flammes
Je te jetterai des sorts pour que tu m'aimes encore


Fallait pas commencer m'attirer me toucher
Fallait pas tant donner moi je sais pas jouer
On me dit qu'aujourd'hui, on me dit que les autres font ainsi
Je ne suis pas les autres
Avant que l'on s'attache, avant que l'on se gâche

Je veux que tu saches
J'irai chercher ton coeur si tu l'emportes ailleurs
Même si dans tes danses d'autres dansent tes heures
J'irai chercher ton âme dans les froids dans les flammes
Je te jetterai des sorts pour que tu m'aimes encore


Je trouverai des langages pour chanter tes louanges
Je ferai nos bagages pour d'infinies vendanges
Les formules magiques des marabouts d'Afrique
J'les dirai sans remords pour que tu m'aimes encore


Je m'inventerai reine pour que tu me retiennes
Je me ferai nouvelle pour que le feu reprenne
Je deviendrai ces autres qui te donnent du plaisir
Vos jeux seront les nôtres si tel est ton désir
Plus brillante plus belle pour une autre étincelle
Je me changerai en or pour que tu m'aimes encore
