Paroles & musiques

Plus qu'une ritournelle, un truc qui s'ancre, qui reste, qui résonne...

Tom McRae m'accompagne depuis pas mal de temps. Voici l'une de ses compositions les plus connues mais tant d'autres devraient aussi être ici... peut-être une autre fois ?

You wake up to the sound of alarms and you're
Driving your fabulous car
Listening to the music that reminds you
You used to be young, you used to be young

And now you're searching, for a sign with your name
To define you the king of the game
What will you do when there's nothing left
For you to earn and for you to learn

So dose me up once is not enough
I can still see the ground
And from this high rise view looking down on you
I'm not the one wasting my time

And every culture has it's own magazine
And information takes the place of your dreams
Finding ways to fill up the silence
But it's all that you need turn on your TV

So dose me up once is not enough
I can still see the ground
And from this high rise view looking down on you
I'm not the one wasting my time

This is the end of the world news
This is the end of the world news sponsored by God

So dose me up once is not enough
I can still see the ground
And from this high rise view looking down on you
I'm not the one wasting my time

So dose me up once is not enough
I can still see the ground
And from this high rise view looking down on you
I'm not the one wasting my time

So dose me up once is not enough
I can still see the ground
And from this high rise view looking down on you
I'm not the one wasting my time

Petite chanson de (ma) nuit...

How simple it can be
I love you and you love me
There’s nothing in our ways

How simple it can be
Sunlight on a tree
There’s nothing more to say
Here by the water front
There’s nothing more to want

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

How simple it can be
The rhythm of the sea
The silence in our head

How simple it can be
I’m scared and you hold me
And everything has been sad
It’s the biggest fear of all
I lose you, I lose it all

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Love, love, love
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Love, love, love
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Love, love, love
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Love, love, love

Parce que j'adore Sarah Bettens, parce que K's Choice commençait à me manquer(*), parce que cette chanson me bouleverse à chaque fois que je l'écoute...

Life has always been a pretty song
And pretty loud
You're so beautiful
Why is it fading out
I don't want to live forever
But as long as I do
I'd love to live for real
Now the boy who dried your tears
Is crying all the time
Now the joy I've had for years
Has left me for a while
I don't want to live forever
But as long as I do
I'd love to live for real

With you I might get there
With you I might start to feel
With you I will get there
With you I will live for real

I will breathe the air, I'll dance
And you will wonder why
It's because you made me see
This chance was moving by
Because I'm not going to live forever
But as long as I do
I'd love to live for real

With you I might get there
With you I might start to feel
With you I will get there
With you I will live for real

When a cloud becomes my head
Play your music loud instead
And we'll dance until
The both of us are dead
