Until Death Do Us Part (Je L'Aime À Mourir)

(Francis Cabrel) adaptation anglaise James Campbell/Roch Voisine



I was nothing before still I stand here today

As a keeper of dreams 'till the night fades away

Je l'aime à mourir

You can tell me again all the reasons to leave

But with a touch of her hand, she can make me believe

That I belong here, yes, I belong here, je l'aime à mourir



Not a moment ago, I was only a man

But she fills me with more in the way no one can

Je l'aime à mourir

When she catches my eye all the light from the sun

Seems to wither and die next to all she's become

I am without fear and I would die here, je l'aime à mourir



It isn't fair, you know, why should I care?

There are a million just like me

It isn't fair, you know, why should she care?

And live to be... The world to me



She is all I've become, she is all that I need

And she makes me feel one with the air that I breathe

Je l'aime à mourir

Though sometimes we're apart, though sometimes I'm astray

It's the beat of her heart in the music I play

That keeps me sincere through all these long years, je l'aime à mourir



I could cry for her eyes like a child in the cold

And I will live by her side 'till the day I am old

Je l'aime à mourir

When you find someone strong, someone inside your heart

And when she takes you beyond "until death do us part"

You'll know what I mean, why I would die here, je l'aime à mourir



It isn't fair, you know, why should I care?

There are a million just like me

It isn't fair, you know, why should she care?

And live to be... The world to me



I was nothing before still I stand here today

As a keeper of dreams 'till the night fades away

Je l'aime à mourir

You can tell me again all the reasons to leave

But with a touch of her hand, she can make me believe

That I belong here and I will die here, je l'aime à mourir.
