Fuir le bonheur de peur qu'il ne se sauve
Jane Birkin
Fleeing Happiness for Fear It Might Run Away
Fleeing happiness for fear it might run away
That the blue sky won't turn to purple
Thinking or moving on to something else
Would be better
Fleeing happiness for fear it might run away
Telling myself there's over the rainbow
Always higher the sun above
Radiant
Believing in the heavens
Believing in the gods
Even when everything seems so damn ugly
When our hearts are torn and on fire
Fleeing happiness for fear it might run away
Like a little mouse in a corner nook
Catching a glimpse of its pink tail
Its feverish eyes
Fleeing happiness for fear it might run away
Telling myself there's over the rainbow
Always higher the sun above
Radiant
Believing in the heavens, believing in the gods
Even when everything seems so damn ugly
When our hearts are torn and on fire
Fleeing happiness for fear it might run away
Sometimes wanting to scream save me
Who can know the depths of things
Is unhappy
Fleeing happiness for fear it might run away
Telling myself there's over the rainbow
Always higher the sun above
Radiant
Believing in the heavens, believing in the gods
Even when everything seems so damn ugly
When our hearts are torn and on fire
Fleeing happiness for fear it might run away
Tell me you still love me if you dare
I wish you'd find something better
Than this
Fleeing happiness for fear it might run away
Telling myself there's over the rainbow
Always higher the sun above
Radiant
