Le Géant de Papier
Lafon Jean-Jacques
The Paper Giant
Ask me to fight the devil
To go challenge the dragons of nothingness
To build towers, cathedrals for you
On shifting sands
Ask me to break the mountains
To dive into the mouth of volcanoes
Everything seems achievable to me, and yet
When I look at her, me the wolf man with a heart of steel
In front of her woman's body, I am a paper giant
When I caress her and I'm afraid to wake her
With all my tenderness, I am a paper giant
Ask me to reduce to dust
This planet where a god would get lost
It is for me like an anthill
That one crushes underfoot
Ask me to kill the light
And to stop the course of time tonight
Everything seems achievable to me, and yet
When I look at her, me the wolf man with a heart of steel
In front of her woman's body, I am a paper giant
When I caress her and I'm afraid to wake her
With all my tenderness, I am a paper giant
When I look at her, me the wolf man with a heart of steel
In front of her woman's body, I am a paper giant
