Holidays
Michel Polnareff
Holidays
Holidays, oh holidays
It's the plane descending from the sky
And under the shadow of its wing
A city goes by
How low the earth is
Holidays
Holidays, oh holidays
Churches and housing projects
What does the God they love do?
Who lives in space
How low the earth is
Holidays
Holidays, oh holidays
From the plane, the shadow touches the sea
The sea like a preface
Before the desert
How low the sea is
Holidays
Holidays, oh holidays
So much sky and so many clouds
You don't know at your age
You, whom life wearies
How low death is
Holidays
Holidays, oh holidays
It's the plane that lives in the sky
But don't forget, you so beautiful
Planes break
And the earth is low
