I can give you a voice, bred with rhythm and
soul
from the heart of a welsh boy who ´s lost
his home
put it in harmony, let the words ring
carry your thoughts in the songs we sing
je te donne mes notes, je te donne mes mots
quand ta voix les emporte à ton propre
tempo
un épaule fragile et solide à la
fois
ce que j'imagine et ce que je crois
je te donne toutes mes différences
tous ces défauts qui sont autant de chances
on sera jamais des "standards" , de gens bien
comme il faut
je te donne ce que j'ai, ce que je vaux
I can give you the force of my ancestral pride
the will to go on when I'm hurt deep inside
whatever the feeling whatever the way
it helps me go on from day to day
je te donne nos doutes et notre indicible espoir
les questions que les routes ont laissées
dans l´ histoire
nous filles sont brunes et l'on parle un peu
fort
et l'humour et l'amour sont nos trésors
je te donne, donne, donne, ce que je suis
I can give you my voice bred with rhythm and soul
je te donne mes notes je te donne ma voix
the songs that l love and the stories I've told
ce que j'imagine et ce que je crois
l can make you feel good even when I'm down
les raisons qui me portent et ce stupide espoir
my force is a platform that you can climb on
une épaule fragile et forte a la fois
je te donne, je te donne
tout ce que je vaux, ce que je suis, mes dons
mes défauts
mes plus belles chances: mes différences

Verse 1
we never said forever
and if we did I never
expected leases to sign
but still I felt so sure
whatever comes
she's a friend of mine
so friend turns into lover
how quickly we discover
the ground we're trading on
is mined
love takes no prisoners
but when I reach for her
she's hard to find
Refrain:
inside I cried
but she won't know (never know)
tell her
just say I said hello
Verse 2
I thrive an isolation
an independent station
I´ m in a unit of one
don't blow my cover know
I know this solo
has just begun
don't say you saw me crying
please don't say
you know I ´ m lying
when I pretend that all is fine
just say I´ m strong and free
don't tell and you will be
a friend of mine
Refrain...

sittin' here alone, staring at the rain
like teardrops falling on my window pane
and I'm thinking of what we've done all those
years
memories in my mind, I'm holding back the tears
but one day, I woke up in the morning sun
one day, I remember how it all begun
I miss you, so come and blow the clouds away
need you so true, 'cause baby...
I miss you like the sunshine in the rain
I miss you like the sunshine, on a cloudy day
(and) if it's raining sometimes, sometimes
(just) let the sunshine in
(ohh) let the sunshine in
looking back to when, our love was so new
pictures in my mind, so beautiful and true
if I can make a wish, I pray you're still mine
could it really be, that
you'll come back in time
but one day, I hope that you can find me
one day, a love that lasts eternally
I miss you, cause you are everything to me
need you so true, 'cause baby...
I miss you...

remember the time when I first told you
I'd be around forever
whenever you need me girl I'll hold you
funny how things get changed
people have always tried to
keep us both apart
but you know
I've always loved you from the start
Refrain:
I've got to get it right girl baby
I've got to get it right just for you
I've got to get it right girl sugar
gotta get it right - gotta get it right
you gave me your heart I said don't worry
cos I won't break it
we're taking our time girl there's no hurry
I know we can make it work
even the best made plans and dreams can go astray
never thought that we would ever
let our only love just slip away
Refrain ...
in a quiet moment
when a private thought slips through
and I think of all the love that we once had
Refrain ...
