Es, es la ultima
De verte la mas linda
De verte vivir tu vida
Es, es mi oracion
Es, es la ultima
Yo quisiera vivir mi vida
Yo quisiera vivir mis noches
Yo quisiera vivir sin jamas mentirte
Bindarte toda mi libertad
Pero vivir a tus lados
Es, es mi oracion
Es, es la ultima
Yo quisiera vivir mi vida
Yo quisiera vivir libre
Yo quisiera vivir de un amor infinito
Yo quisiera vivir sin jamas mentirte
Brindarte toda mi libertad
Pero vivir a tus lados
Yo quisiera vivir de un amor infinito
Yo quisiera vivir sin mentirte
Bindarte toda mi libertad
The lyrics of Art Sullivan's song "C'est ma prière" convey a deep longing for a love that is truthful, honest, and infinite. The singer's prayer is expressed in the first stanza where he implores to see his beloved looking her most beautiful, and living her life to the fullest. He wishes to live his life and nights with her without ever lying to her even though he desires to give her all his freedom. In the second stanza, the singer repeats his desire to live his life freely but with her by his side. He expresses his intention to love her without ever lying to her and freely binding her with his all-inclusive love.
The song exudes a sense of yearning for an unconditional love that is not only reciprocated but also free of deception. The singer's prayer is poignant and emotional, expressing his deepest hopes and dreams for a love that is true, pure, and forever. The repetition of the phrase "Es, es mi oracion, es, es la ultima" (It is my prayer, it is the last one) gives the song a haunting quality, emphasizing the singer's conviction that this prayer carries the weight of his life.
