Et S'Il Fallait Le Faire
Patricia Kaas
And If It Had to Be Done
And then look at me
First, firstly, it's a sentimental song
It's sung with all your heart
Here, look!
If it had to be done
I would stop the Earth
I would turn off the light
So you can stay asleep
If it had to be done to please you
Raise contrary winds
In a lifeless desert
I would find the sea
And if it had to be done
I would stop the rain
It would turn back
The rest of our lives
If it had to be done to please you
Listen to you every night
When you talk about love
I would talk about it too
That you still look
Deep into my eyes
That you still see
The biggest of big fires
And that your hand sticks
To my skin, wherever it wants
One day if you fly away
I'll follow if I can
And if it had to be done
I would push back winter
With big bursts of spring
And long clear mornings
If it had to be done to please you
I would stop time
So all your words from yesterday
Stay with me now
That I still look
Into the blue of your eyes
That your two hands still
Get lost in my hair
I would make everything bigger
And if it's too much or too little
I would be wrong all the time
If that's what you want
I'm willing to give everything
If only you believe in it
My heart is willing to bleed
If only you see it
Until I am nothing
But the shadow of your nights
Until I am nothing
But a shadow that follows you
And if it had to be done
