All that we needed was right
All that we needed was right
Les ombres ce soir nous menacent
The shadows threaten us tonight
Open to everything happy and sad
Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good, même si tout va si mal
Seeing the good, even if everything is so bad
Voir le soleil quand la nuit nous accable
See the sun when the night overwhelms us
Au bout d'un jour croire aux Dieux, croire aux fables
After one day believe in Gods, believe in fables
Focus on everything better today
Focus on everything better today
Crier la vie quand tout autour se tait
Scream life when everything around is silent
Hold on to people they're slipping away
Hold on to people they're slipping away
Hold on to this while it's slipping away
Hold on to this while it's slipping away
All that we needed tonight
All that we needed tonight
Are people who love us and life
Are people who love us and life
Je sais les douleurs et les doutes
I know the pains and the doubts
Partir est ce qu'on redoute
Leaving is what we dread
Aussi

Open to everything happy and sad
Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good, même si tout va si mal

Voir le soleil quand la nuit nous accable
See the sun when the night overwhelms us
Au bout d'un jour croire aux Dieux, croire aux fables

Focus on everything better today

Crier la vie quand tout autour se tait
Scream life when everything around is silent
Hold on to people they're slipping away
Hold on to people they're slipping away
Hold on to this while it's slipping away
Hold on to this while it's slipping away
So long
So long
Mais l'ombre, mais l'ombre, mais l'ombre, mais l'ombre, mais l'ombre
But the shadow, but the shadow, but the shadow, but the shadow, but the shadow
Open to everything happy and sad
Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good, même si tout va si mal
Seeing the good, even if everything is so bad
Voir le soleil quand la nuit nous accable
