Elle Chantait Ma Vie En Musique
Gilbert Montagné
She Sang My Life in Music
I was told she sang
In a forgotten neighborhood
So tonight I came to hear her
And the words of her song
Seemed written just for me
She sang my life in music
She turned my words into song
I saw America again
She touched my heart so gently
She soothed me softly
She took me far from the present
The notes of my years
Flowed under her hands
Without knowing me, she seemed to know me well
Oh, I was alone with her
She told the story of my past
She sang my life in music
She turned my words into song
I saw America again
She touched my heart so gently
She soothed me softly
She took me far from the present
I wish I could have guessed
That she was singing for me
But there was so much sadness in her voice
Oh, she looked so alone
Alone with her song
She sang my life in music
She turned my words into song
I saw America again
She touched my heart so gently
She soothed me softly
She took me far from the present
Hey, I say she sang my life
Oh, and she turned my words
I saw America again
She touched my heart, oh so gently
She soothed it, oh softly
She took me far from the present, oh
