Écoute Dans Le Vent
Richard Anthony
Listen in the Wind
How many roads must a boy walk
Before he's a man?
How many seas must a bird fly across
Before it's far away from the cold?
How many deaths must a cannon cause
Before we forget its voice?
Listen my friend, listen in the wind
Listen to the answer in the wind
How many times must one look up
Before seeing the sun?
How many ears do the unfortunate need
Before listening to their peers?
How many tears must a happy man shed
Before his heart awakens?
Listen my friend, listen in the wind
Listen to the answer in the wind
How many years will it take for a slave
To have his freedom?
How long is a soldier brave
Before dying forgotten?
How many seas must the dove fly across
Before we live in peace?
So my friend, listen in the wind
Listen to the answer in the wind
Listen, the answer is in the wind
