Le Temps Qui Compte
Céline Dion
The Time That Counts
The hours of glory
Marked by doubts
The price it costs
To always want
The wavering voice, that sparkles
The room filled
With a love so big
So strong that it carries me
Lifts me up, takes me
No matter the note
Singing is loving
The time that counts
Is always limited
Whether it's gained
Whether it's wasted
In flowing laughter
In life that rushes
The time that counts
Is always limited
It hammers us
It rushes the tempo
Time calls me
It's almost ten years
It takes life, seizes it and goes away
The time that counts is always limited
And my love so mistreated
Endangered by the years
Years too many that have stolen from me
How many moments, hours, and days?
I played with words
My songs screamed your name
Verse of passion
Loving you was singing
It hammers us
It rushes the tempo
Time calls me
It's almost ten years
It takes life, seizes it and goes away
The time that counts doesn't wait for us
And life glides on the water of time
Life resists, gains momentum
For a kiss it can settle
But the time that counts is always limited
One kiss and life goes away
The time that counts doesn't wait for us
Even with you, even with passion
The time that counts only lasts for one song
