Si La Vie Est Cadeau

We were in the blue
A summer sky
A clear ocean
It was just us two
And we loved like we could stop time
But time betrayed us
So why promise me the whole damn world?
Our love would have been enough
I didn’t want some fake happiness
If life is a gift
If life is a gift,
A gift given, a gift taken back, a stolen gift
Take love like a gift
A gift given, a gift taken back, a stolen gift
Happiness is way too short

We were the child I wanted,
To give to you in spring...
But time has all the rights
So why promise me the whole damn world?
And the child who isn’t here
Is today my only imaginary happiness
If life is a gift
If life is a gift,
A gift given, a gift taken back, a stolen gift
Take love like a gift
A gift given, a gift taken back, a stolen gift
Happiness is way too short
If life is a gift
