Suzanne - REGGDIDIT

Who are you when the lights come up When the music fades and the crowd goes down Where did you land when the spinning stopped Are you far away in another town You were young and the lights were bright You went dancing in to the night You always said it would turn out alright Suzanne will you help me if you can Suzanne is it everything you wanted Suzanne, Suzanne is it everything you dreamed it would be You reached for the stars and you touched the sky You fell back down and you don't know why But Suzanne you still shine bright to me You are the first one on and the last one off Who do you see when the mask comes off With your red wine teeth and your smoker's cough Suzanne I feel you've had enough You never cared for what I had to say Now you go sleeping all through the day Please don't dream your life away Suzanne would you help me to understand Suzanne is it everything you wanted Suzanne, Suzanne is it everything you dreamed it would be For time takes everything she likes And youth will leave like a thief in the night But Suzanne you still shine bright to me Now you're old and the lights are dim The band won't play and the man won't sing All the songs that he sang when you danced with him Suzanne can I take you by the hand Suzanne is it everything you wanted Suzanne, Suzanne is it everything you dreamed it would be You never knew the rules to the game Drawn in like a moth to the flame Suzanne it is a crying shame That they'll never know your name

My name is calypso And i have lived alone I live on an island And i waken to the dawn A long time ago I watched him struggle with the sea I knew that he was drowning And i brought him into me Now today Come morning light He sails away After one last night I let him go. My name is calypso My garden overflows Thick and wild and hidden Is the sweetness there that grows My hair it blows long As i sing into the wind My name is calypso And i have lived alone I live on an island I tell of nights Where i could taste the salt on his skin Salt of the waves And of tears And though he, pulled away I kept him here for years I let him go My name is calypso I have let him go In the dawn he sails away To be gone forever more And the waves will take him in again But he'll know their ways now I will stand upon the shore With a clean heart And my song in the wind The sand will sting my feet And the sky will burn It's a lonely time ahead I do not ask him to return I let him go I let him go

.Suzanne t'emmène écouter les sirènes Elle te prend par la main Pour passer une nuit sans fin Tu sais qu'elle est à moitié folle C'est pourquoi tu veux rester Sur un plateau d'argent Elle te sert du thé au jasmin Et quand tu voudrais lui dire Tu n'as pas d'amour pour elle Elle t'appelle dans ses ondes Et laisse la mer répondre Que depuis toujours tu l'aimes Tu veux rester à ses côtés Maintenant, tu n'as plus peur De voyager les yeux fermés Une flamme brûle dans ton cœur Il était un pêcheur venu sur la terre Qui a veillé très longtemps Du haut d'une tour solitaire Quand il a compris que seuls Les hommes perdus le voyaient Il a dit qu'on voguerait Jusqu'à ce que les vagues nous libèrent Mais lui-même fut brisé Bien avant que le ciel s'ouvre Délaissé et presqu'un homme Il a coulé sous votre sagesse Comme une pierre Tu veux rester à ses côtés Maintenant, tu n'as plus peur De voyager les yeux fermés Une flamme brûle dans ton cœur Suzanne t'emmène écouter les sirènes Elle te prend par la main Pour passer une nuit sans fin Comme du miel, le soleil coule Sur Notre Dame des Pleurs Elle te montre où chercher Parmi les déchets et les fleurs Dans les algues, il y a des rêves Des enfants au petit matin Qui se penchent vers l'amour Ils se penchent comme ça toujours Et Suzanne tient le miroir Tu veux rester à ses côtés Maintenant, tu n'as plus peur De voyager les yeux fermés Une blessure étrange dans le cœur

Do you remember when you walked with me Down the street into the square How the women selling rosemary Pressed the branches to your chest Promised luck and all the rest And put their fingers in your hair I had met you just the day before Like an accident of fate In the window there behind your door How I wanted to break in To that room beneath your skin But all that would have to wait In the Carmen of the Martyrs With the statues in the courtyard Whose heads and hands were taken In the burden of the sun I had come to meet you With a question in my footsteps I was going up the hillside And the journey just begun My sister says she never dreams at night There are days when I know why Those possibilities within her sight With no way of coming true Some things just don't get through Into this world, although they try In the Carmen of the Martyr With the statues in the courtyard Whose heads and hands were taken In the burden of the sun I had come to meet you With a question in my footsteps I was going up the hillside And the journey just begun All I know of you Is in my memory All I ask is you Remember me

Tell me you love me Tell me that you're mine again Tell me you won't turn away Turn like the seasons Turn back to me once again Circling all the way Once you were my blue-eyed prince Waking love from an endless sleep You made all of my wishes come true Turning all of my dreams into you Turning and swirling and whirling 'round you again Twirling and curling 'round you Turning and burning and yearning for you again All my life with you But lately I'm losing sleep Someone else is in your eyes Won't you turn back to me my love Won't you stop telling me lies Turning and swirling and whirling 'round me again Twirling and curling 'round me Turning and burning and yearning for me again All my life with you It is a chance, a romance It's a dance we do Turning in circles we go Turn like the seasons Turn back to me once again Never let me go Tell me you love me Tell me that you're mine again Tell me you won't turn away Turn like the seasons Turn back to me once again Circling all the way Turning and swirling and whirling 'round you again Twirling and curling 'round you Turning and burning and yearning for you again All my life with you Turning and swirling and whirling 'round me again Twirling and curling 'round me Turning and burning and yearning for me again All my life with you
