Pomme - On brûlera (en direct: Sofar Paris)

[alma37]

My favourite song from one of my favourite French female singer : song writer.

Here’s a translation (not mine) :

I love people who doubt

Who care too much about

Their little swinging heart

Those who speak for themselves

and contradict themselves

and without backing out

I love people who fear

That we may think out here

They're judging or they're snide

I love the ones that cruise

midway inside their shoes

and midway by their side 

I love their little melody

As stupid as they're thought to be

I love those panicking

Those who’re not straight-thinking

Who are behind the times

Those making with their chain,

To spare us from our strain

cute sounds of little chimes

Those who will have no shame

At the end of the game

For being looser’s hearts

For having failed to say:

"don’t take the best away

and keep the worse appart"

I love their little melody

As stupid as they're thought to be

I love those who won’t dare

Consider things as theirs

Let alone girls and guys

Those who are happily

Just windows, merely

For all the children's eyes 

Whose pennons are untwined

Whose souls are colorblind

Ignoring all the hues

Those letting, foolishly

Ungrateful History

Deprive them of their dues

I love their little melody

As stupid as they're thought to be

I love people who doubt

but who could live without

being bugged, from time to time

And never being downed

When showing all around

Their falls in springing time

Let’s tell them that the soul

Makes much more beautiful

Flames than those mournful bums

And thank them fervently

say, shout immediately:

"Thank you for living, chums

thanks for those tender cuts

and never mind your butts

They did the best they could.
