Promets-moi
Claude Barzotti
Promise Me
The sky tore apart burned by the lightning,
Love withdrew pushed by your anger,
Outside the dogs bark to confuse fate
In my heart it's cold, I hurt even when I sleep.
The repeated storms left only mud,
Everything suddenly froze, nothing stands anymore,
The walls of our story cracked by our screams
Are now just illusory and forbidden dreams.
CHORUS:
Promise me despite everything not to ruin everything,
To keep the best of us, not the worst,
Promise me despite everything not to smile at him
When the wise man goes mad in your delusions.
Oh! Promise me despite everything not to offer him
Our sweetest moments, our pieces of pleasure,
Promise me despite everything not to destroy everything,
On a field of rocks we can't build anything.
Your words leave a taste of ash in my mouth,
You brought me to my knees, the insults hit the mark,
I keep searching for a good reason to believe,
I'm not strong enough anymore, I have no more memory.
CHORUS
Exhausted by the war we waged against each other,
Tired by the iron we clashed,
I chose to surrender with weapons in hand,
There's nothing left to defend when the word 'end' is written.
