L'Étoile
Céline Dion
The Star
One night, by the side of the road
There was a star
I picked it up
It smiled at me in my hands
As if it was normal
I think it was waiting for me
I took it with me
I often hear its voice
As long as I can, I’ll light your way
Open your eyes
There’s so much to do
Since everything is fleeting
We can do better
Not the time to be quiet
Life is free, that goes without saying
You should help yourself
As long as we shine, we hope
The star lit up so well
The dark thoughts
That were slowing me down
The star explained so well
That every minute is precious
No time for regrets
And as long as it’s there
We’ll sing out loud
As long as I can, I’ll light your way
Open your eyes
There’s so much to do
Since everything is fleeting
We can do better
Not the time to be quiet
Life is free, that goes without saying
You should help yourself
As long as we shine, we hope
If I light your way
Open your eyes
Being your star, I know how to do
We’ll see that light
It’s contagious
As long as we shine, we hope
As long as I can, I’ll light your way
Open your eyes
There’s so much to do
Since everything is fleeting
We can do better
Not the time to be quiet
Life is free, that goes without saying
You should help yourself
As long as we shine, we hope
