Ah.
I know that I expect
A lot too much
The phantoms in my head
Cross ev'ry borderline.
Save me save me.
I'm crying for my guardian angel
And now she's talking to me.

C'est la vie rely on your heart
Ooh

Et l'ange de vie la douce lumiere
C'est la vie
N'est jamais trop tard
Ooh

Receive the light and discover new energy
Discover new energy
C'est la vie you have a good heart.

Ach Hubert, besser geht es nicht.
Das ganze 96er Album ist perfekt. Eines der besten, die ich je gehört habe. Dringend empfehlenswert.

@rah1572

Bei diesem Lied bin ich mit meinem Mann 1996 zusammen gekommen. Wir seit heute noch zusammen, mittlerweile verheiratet. Dieses Lied weckt Erinnerungen, lässt mich in die Vergangenheit hineinversetzen. Es ist, als wenn ich im Jahr 1996 bin, wenn ich es höre 🥰

@rfrf4420

Wunderschönes Lied ❤😂🎉

Hubert Kah ist einer der talentiertesten Schlagersänger und Komponist. Dieter Bohlen war dagegen nur ein untalentierter Großkotz

@MrOsetian
