Voir la blessure Oblique et dure Du temps obstinément Is heaven a place? Oh, I see the moon I see no trace of you See the red upon the hill See the death looking at me I see no trace of you and me Little me Refais le rêve obscur d'une île Des forêts secrètes aux villes Qu'on parcourait seuls dans nos nuits d'amour Whisper words of desire Take my hand, I'm standing there Our soul so close on paradise When winds go round and round Je me dis, l'indigne horloge Je me dis, le souffle est force Qu'il nous bercera dans son lit d'amour, de vie Looking for my name wherever you will be Hold on to my prayer, hold on to harmony Looking for my name, little you, little me We belong together Looking for my name wherever you will be Hold on to my prayer, hold on to harmony Looking for me, looking for eternity We belong together Looking for my name wherever you will be Hold on to my prayer, hold on to harmony Looking for my name, little you, little me We belong together Looking for my name wherever you will be Hold on to my prayer, hold on to harmony Looking for me, looking for eternity We belong together Together Together

Oh I was perfect For the circus If he dared me I'd do it Love makes you stupid I'd give it up But I guess it was not enough 'Cause he never seemed satisfied I know I'm not perfect But at the end of the day, who is? He wanted someone that's perfect Well ok, but can you tell me who is? He set the bar Just above the stars A rocket couldn't reach it But I still kept on reaching He watched me at least a thousand times If he loved me, he'd stop me, but no I know I'm not perfect But at the end of the day, who is? He wanted someone that's perfect Well ok, but can you tell me who is? I saw my future in his eyes So wrong, so wrong Guess I was destined for more in my life 'Cause he didn't break me down, he made me strong I know I'm not perfect But at the end of the day, who is? He wanted someone that's perfect Well ok, but can you tell me who is?

Hey! (Hey!) Everybody! (Everybody!) All around the world Every boy and girl Taking lessons from me Do The Stupidity My Momma she says it's silly My Poppa says, "you look like a fool" But, baby, I don't mind the criticism Because were doing it every day in school Come along with me See how much fun it can be While watching me, baby Do The Stupidity Oh my Momma she says it's silly My Poppa says I look like a fool But, I don't mind the criticism Because were doing it every day in school Come along with me See how much fun it can be Watch it on TV Oh, baby, thats The Stupidity

There'll be lies, there'll be tears A jury of your peers With a pitiful look of experience Hand down the judgement And if I done wrong And loved you too long Stand up and just testify How can you deny? Objection overruled I wait for my reprieve With the trust of the deceived The wisdom of the fool It's his sorrowful face Too heavy for his head 'Cos he bowed it as something come over him It was the judgement And he falls to his knees Have mercy on me He clings to the hem of her gown She says: "Just take him down" Just take him down Just take him down
