Je te donne

I can offer a voice, born with rhythms and soul
the heart of a Welsh boy who's lost his home
put it in harmony, let the words ring
carry your thoughts in the song we sing
I give you my notes, I give you my words
when your voice carries them at your own tempo
a fragile and strong shoulder at the same time
what I imagine and what I believe.

I give you all my differences,
all these flaws that are so many chances
we will never be standard, people who are just right
I give you what I have and what I'm worth

I can give you the strength of my ancestral pride
the will to go on when I'm hurt deep inside
whatever the feeling, whatever the way
it helps me to go on from day to day
I give you our doubts and our unspeakable hope
the questions that the roads have left in history
our daughters are brunette and we speak a little loudly
and humor and love are our treasures

I give you all my differences...

I give you, give you, give you what I am

I can give you my voice, born with rhythm and soul,
I give you my notes, I give you my voice
the songs that I love, and the stories I've told
what I imagine and what I believe
I can make you feel good even when I'm down
the reasons that drive me and this stupid hope
my strength is a platform that you can climb on
a fragile and strong shoulder at the same time
I give you, I give you all that I'm worth, what I am, my gifts, my flaws, my best chances, my differences
