You won't find him, anywhere
He's gone for good, lost for everybody
I hope to hear from you, I hope one day
Some inspired by you will be better people

I think I see him everywhere
Even gone, I feel him all around us
I hope to hear from you, I hope one day
Some inspired by you will be better men

Have to see me as I am, wanna embrace all the pain
And I just want to believe in you
Forgive me and forgive us, just a call to all of us

Paroles
You won’t find him, anywhere
He’s gone for good, lost for everybody
I hope to hear from you, I hope one day
Some inspired by you will be better people

I think i see him everywhere
Even gone, i feel him all around us
Je veux dormir debout, te regarder
Dans ces vagues je sais
Je m’ennuie de vous

Et si je dois rester le même
Au delà de tous ces maux
Est ce que tu voudrais encore de moi?
Pardonne moi, pardonne nous
De cet aveu qui rend fou

Un long voyage jusque dans tes bras

Et si je dois rester la même
Au delà de tous ces maux
Est ce que tu voudrais encore de moi?
Pardonne moi, pardonne nous
De cet aveu qui rend fou
Un long voyage jusque dans tes bras

Comme un soleil sous la mer
Je cherche en moi
Ces voix qui s’endorment
Peux-tu tenir debout, me regarder
Dans ces vagues je sais
Je m’ennuie de vous

Would you find me ?
Would you find me as I am

Would you try with me
Would try the best you can

Et si je dois rester le même
Au delà de tous ces maux
Est ce que tu voudrais encore de moi?
Pardonne moi, pardonne nous
De cet aveu qui rend fou
Un long voyage jusque dans tes bras

I have to see me as I am
I wanna embrace all the pain
And I just want to believe in you

Pardonne moi, pardonne nous
De cet aveu qui rend fou
Un long voyage jusque dans tes bras


Would you find me as I am
Woul you try the best you can
Would you find me as I am
Woul you try the best you can

I have to see me as I am
I wanna embrace all the pain
And I just want to believe in you
Pardonne moi, pardonne nous
De cet aveu qui rend fou
Un long voyage jusque dans tes bras

Et si je dois rester la même
Au delà de tous ces maux
Est ce que tu voudrais encore de moi?
Pardonne moi, pardonne nous
De cet aveu qui rend fou
Un long voyage jusque dans tes bras


I have to see me as I am
I wanna embrace all the pain
And I just want to believe in you
Forgive me and forgive us
Just a call to all of us
All this journey to come back to you

You won't find him, anywhere
He's gone for good, lost for everybody
I hope to hear from you, I hope one day
Some inspired by you will be better people
I think I see him everywhere
Even gone, I feel him all around us
Je veux dormir, debout te regarder
I want to sleep, standing watching you
Dans ces vagues je sais je m'ennuie de vous
in these waves I know I miss you

Et si je dois rester le même au delà de tous ces maux
and if I must remain the same beyond all these evils
Est-ce que tu voudrais encore de moi?
would you still want me
Pardonne moi pardonne nous de cet aveu qui rend fou
forgive me forgive us for this confession that makes us crazy
Un long voyage jusque dans tes bras
a long journey into your arms
Et si je dois rester la même au delà de tous ces maux
and if I have to stay the same beyond all these evils
Est-ce que tu voudrais encore de moi?
would you still want me?
Pardonne moi, pardonne nous de cet aveu qui rend fou
forgive me forgive us for this
confession that makes us crazy
Un long voyage jusque dans tes bras
a long journey into your arms

Comme un soleil sous la mer
like a sun under the sea
Je cherche en moi cette voix qui s'endort
I seek in me this voice that falls asleep
Peux-tu tenir debout me regarder?
can you stand and watch me
Dans ces vagues, je m'ennuie de vous
in these waves, I miss you
Would you find me ?
Would you find me as I am ?
Would you try with me ?
Would you try the best you can ?

Et si je dois rester le même au delà de tous ces maux
and I must remain the same beyond all these evils
Est ce que tu voudrais encore de moi?
would you still want me?
Pardonne moi, pardonne nous de cet aveu qui rend fou
forgive me, forgive us for this confession that makes us mad
Un long voyage jusque dans tes bras
Et si je dois rester la même au delà de tous ces maux
Est-ce que tu voudrais encore de moi?
Pardonne moi pardonne nous de cet aveu qui rend fou
Un long voyage jusque dans tes bras

I have to see me as I am
I wanna embrace all the pain
And just want to believe in you
Forgive me and forgive us
just call to all of us
all this journey to come back to you
