À ma place [English translation]
À ma place [English translation]
Axel Bauer
Would she be in my shoes
Stronger than a man
At the bottom of these dead ends
Where she forsakes me
Living in Hell
Dying in the line of duty
Should I , to please her ,
Go as far as this
Would it possible that I reach that
Would it possible that they forgive us
Would it possible to be loved
As we are
Zazie
Would he be in my shoes
Sometimes
When my wings crease
& My islands drown
I bend under the weight
Bend under the weight
Of this half of a woman
That he wants me to be
I don't mind being The Beauty
But not being left sleeping in the hoods
I don't mind being a queen
But not the shadow of the king
Should I give up
Should I bleed
So he could love me, too
As I am
Zazie
Could he try to
Axel Bauer
Would she take, for me
Zazie
Open the door a little
Axel Bauer
Just one step
Zazie
Could he make it again
Axel Bauer
Another effort
Zazie
One gesture , one step towards me
Axel Bauer
One step towards me
Zazie & Axel Bauer
I don't expect you
To be the same
I don't expect you
To understand me
But only you to love me
As I am
Axel Bauer
Does she try to figure what it's like to be me
Sometimes
What should I do
So she sees me
Living in Hell
Dying as a line of duty
Do you want to make me
Someone that I am not
I'd like to try & make the effort
To look you in the eyes
But the silence is dead
& Yours freezes me
My soul mate
Look for the error
The more my blood pours out
& the more you're afraid
Axel Bauer
Should I tell you about
Zazie
I am not asking for anything
Axel Bauer
The cloudy waters where I wander
Zazie
Such as where you go , where you have been
Axel Bauer
Do you really need to know about
Zazie
Everything you hide
Axel Bauer
This doubt deep inside of me
Zazie
Deep inside of you
Zazie & Axel Bauer
I don't expect you
To be the same
I don't expect you
To understand me
But only you to love me (x2)
As I am
When I doubt
When I fall
& When the road
Is too long
When sometimes
I'm not
What you expect from me
What do you want
Us to do?
What would you have done
If you were in my shoes?
