Salty river, falls asleep in the bay
Always gets there, never early never late
Nothing's happening
Nothing's happening by the sea
White waves tumbledown
And gently roll back into blue
On wooden seats outside the bar
The couples make their rendez-vous
Nothing's happening
Nothing's happening by the sea
The troubles have been found
There's too far ups and too many downs
I've found a level that feels just right
There's no mistaking where I'm going tonite
To nothing's happening...
Nothing's happening by the sea.
Rivière salée, tombe de sommeil dans la baie
Elle y vient toujours, jamais en avance ou en retard
Rien ne se passe
Rien ne se passe au bord de mer
Vagues blanches qui s'effrondent
Et s'enroulent à nouveau dans le bleu
Aux abords du bar dans des sièges en bois
Les couples jouent leurs rendez-vous
Rien ne se passe
Rien ne se passe au bord de mer
On a trouvé le problème
Les hauts sont trop loins et les bas trop nombreux
J'ai trouvé un niveau où je me sens juste bien
Pas d'erreur sur où j'irai ce soir
Là où il ne se passe rien
Rien ne se passe au bord de mer
All change on the merry go line
Everybody looking for a sign
Jumping up and down when the switch goes on
Nobody knows where it's coming from
I'm here watching, keeping well away
I'm going to live it on my own way
No mister! Not me!
I'm staying here where it's nice and free
In deep water
I see the captain on a distant shore
He's got a dream, he wants to make it law
He's got my number, he's got a plan
He'll try to get you, anyway he can
He wants to own everything he sees
But while I'm out here, welle he ain't with me
Singing... No mister!
No way!
I got my own
Deep water
Deep deep water
Tout change sur le manège de la vie
Tout le monde attend un signe
Bondissant de haut en bas, suivant le balancement
Personne ne sait d'où il viendra
Je me tiens là, bien à l'écart, j'observe
Je vais le vivre à ma façon
Non, môssieur! Pas moi!
Je reste ici, où c'est agréable et libre
En eaux profondes
Je vois le capitaine, sur une rive éloignée
Il a un rêve, dont il veut faire une loi
Il a mon numéro, il a un plan
Il tentera de t'attraper, de toutes les manières possibles
Il veut posséder tout ce qu'il voit
Mais tant que je suis ici, hé bien, il n'est pas avec moi
Je chante... Non môssieur !
Pas question
J'ai mes propres
Eaux profondes
Eaux profondes, très profondes
Faith, for reason still unknown
Like "bleak-house-fog" seems everywhere
The truth has faded into stone
And hope lies freezing in the midnite air.
Though dark our days may seem
Theirs is a different dream
Their freedom light don't shine at all
So I will light a candle for you
Keep it burning in the night
Praying that you're allright
I will light a candle for you
Little candle burning bright.
The schoolyard heroes disappeared
The little girl she stands alone
Oh I'll believe you if you say
A little prayer can bring her home
So I will light a candle for you
Keep it burning in the night
Praying that you're allright
I will light a candle for you
Little candle burning bright.
En visite en Pologne, Chris demande à une étudiante ce qu'il peut faire pour aider. "Allumez une bougie", répond-elle, comme une blague.
A noter, bleak-house fog fait référence à un roman fort connu de la littérature anglo-saxonne où les premières pages décrivent un brouillard avec une telle intensité que le nom du roman est passé dans le langage courant pour qualifier le brouillard par excellence.
La foi, pour des raisons toujours inconnues
Comme le "brouillard Bleak-house" a l'air d'être partout.
La vérité s'est affadie en pierre
Et l'espoir gît gelé dans l'air de minuit.
Même si nos jours peuvent sembler sombres,
Les leurs, c'est un autre rêve.
Leur lumière de liberté ne brille pas du tout
Alors j'allumerai une bougie pour toi
La laisserai brûler dans la nuit
Priant que tu ailles bien
J'allumerai une bougie pour toi
Petite bougie qui brille fort.
Les héros de cours d'école ont disparu
La petite fille se retrouve toute seule
Oh je te croirai si tu dis
Qu'une prière peut aider à la ramener à la maison.
Alors j'allumerai une bougie pour toi
La laisserai brûler dans la nuit
Priant que tu ailles bien
J'allumerai une bougie pour toi
Petite bougie qui brille fort.
When passion shines her blinding light on you
You know my friend there's nothing
That you can really do
Just follow on, behind her veil
Of deepest purple haze
Down to love's strange ways
And drowing in the laughter
As you go
Intoxicating laughter
That sprins you high and low
Dangerous times are these
But oh so wonderfully new
Laugh along you fool
Can't you see?
They're laughing at you!
Lost in the haze of love's strange ways
Ain't it funny how it turns
When it's all over, nothing's learned
Just a passion and a fool
And a memory that burns
And that's what you get
When you play with love's strange ways
Catch a sight of long lost summers
Catch a dream inside your hands
Take me where that lady comes from
Take me to that far-off distant land
Rain comes pouring past my window
Turns my sky from blue to grey
I've never been to Texas
But I'm sure going to meet that lady
One fine day
When Texas smiles around my bedroom
Who could ever turn her down?
Tears of joy roll down my pillow
While cold north winds
Are blowing all around me
But I don't care my dream is westbound
Far across the sky so grey
I ain't never been to Texas
But I'm sure going to meet that lady
One fine day
She's my little Texas
Oh my little texas
There's no sense in waiting
So let's make a start
I've got a poisoned finger
On a broken heart
Don't have time for reasons
Or feel inclined to quiz
The past is over
That's just the way it is
Start it up
And let it loose on me
We could sit forever
Or we could take all night
Of the whys and where fores
Of the wrongs and the rights
A crazy situation
Anyhow
Turning on frustration
So tell me
Why not now?
Let it loose on me
Start it up
Let it loose on me
In the silence of the side-street
In the whisper of the night
From the darkness of the empty hours
To the early morning light
From the hustle down on main street
With all its lights so bright
To the truck up on the highway
Pressing through the night
I can hear your heartbeat
I can hear your heartbeat
That sound of you is so sweet
I'm in a european disco
Thumping out the beat
There's a juke-box in a café
Where the younger ones can meet
We got freezing coca-cola
We got everything you want
I can feel the backbeat
Girl, but it's you that sings the song
'Cos I can hear your heartbeat
I can hear your heartbeat
That sound of you is so sweet to me
And I'm sailing on your windsong
I can feel the summer breeze
You got me walking on my tip-toes
You got me standing on my knees
From the mills way down in Pitsburgh
To the clubs of Gay Paris
No matter whare I run girl
You can always get to me
Because I can hear your heartbeat
'cos I can hear your heartbeat
The sound of you is so sweet to me
(ad lib)
I've got my money
I've got it here in my hand
OK let me tell you
This is how we stand
I have waited so long
But a good thing's never too late
So don't take no chances
Leave nothing to fate
I want to walk tall
In midnight blue
Look good oh so good
Step out in midnight blue
Midnight Blue
I watch the razors
With their class and style
Dressed to kill, man
Their life is just one great big smile
And oh I want to be there
When they dish that stuff out
Cool and collected
Man, that's what it's all about
Give me, give me, give me...
I want midnight blue
I love midnight
I'm going to step out in midnight blue
Oh give me, give me, give me midnight blue
I'll walk tall in midnight blue
I'll look good, oh so good
In midnight blue
I want midnight blue
I love midnight
I'm going to stepout in midnight blue
Midnight blue
Well I stood out with my brother
On a tree lined avenue
I see the sweetest little creature
Coming into my view
And I say to myself, I say
Man, I'm going to get me some
Of that bright little angel
Shines like the morning sun
Well my brother steps in
Faster than light
Sweet talks this angel
Clean out of sight
Say hey you
You with that look in your eye
Hey you
You with that look in your eye
She moves like a river
From her head down to her toes
It's less a way of walking
More a total flow
And I say to myself, I wonder
I wonder if she knows
What she's doing to me and my brother
From our heads down to our toes
Well he's up there, on the corner now
He's playing up the Romeo
Like only he knows how
Say hey you
You with that look in your eye
Hey you
You with that look in your eye
Hey you
that makes the stars shine
There's an empty street
In an empty town
There's an old boutique
Selling ageing gowns
Some words on the wall
That were written by the light
Of the moon so bright
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me tonite?
Take me out of this darkness and into the morning light.
And the rain that falls doesn't make me cry
And the wind that blows cannot hurt my eyes
But the things that I see when I turn on T.V.
Make me want to lay down and dye
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me tonite?
Take me out of this darkness and into the morning light.
(repeat)
