I drink to drive away all the years I have hated,
The ambitions frustrated that no longer survive. I drink day after day to the chaos behind me, Yes, I drink to remind me that still I'm alive. So I give you a toast to the endless confusions, To the lies and delusions that have swallowed my life. Yes, I give you a toast to the wine and the roses, To the deadly cirrhosis that can cut like a knife. I drink to catch a gleam of the love we degraded, Of a life that has faded like the vanishing moon. I drink, as in a dream, to my waning desire, To the passionate fire that has burned out so soon. I drink and I drown in the promise you made me, All the times you betrayed me in your anger and spite, When you took on the town, when you looked for the action, When you took satisfaction, like a whore in the night. I drink to make-believe that my life is worth living, That the gods are forgiving at the end of the day. I drink because I grieve for the dreams when we started, For the innocent-hearted who got lost on the way. For the children unborn, for their dead, phantom faces, For our sterile embraces in the tomb of your bed. I drink, and I mourn for the harvest that failed, For the ship that has sailed, for the hope that is dead. I drink to find a place where the darkness can hide me Till the terror inside me can at last disappear. I drink to my disgrace, till oblivion claims me Till there's nothing that shames me, till I'm blind to my fear. Yes, I drink till I burst in my own degradation, To the edge of damnation that is waiting below. Yes, I drink with a thirst that destroys and depraves me And cuffs and enslaves me, and will never let go. I drink until I'm lost, and the street is my hideout Where I vomit my pride out till I'm gasping for breath. I drink to count the cost of a life I despair for Until God hears my prayer for the compassion of death. So I spit out my bile at the gods who demean us, At the silence between us, at the love none can save. For a life that is vile, for a soul that is ailing For a body that's failing as it heads for the grave. I drink without a care... drink because I must... Drink to my despair... I drink to your disgust... I drink, drink, drink... by God, I drink! Yes, I drink! |

Chanson souvenir
Refrain de rires et de pleurs Chanson retro Que la radio Chante en echo De notre histoire Chanson souvenir Qui rappelle a nos c?ur Que l'on s'etait jure Fievreux, nous les enfants d'hier De ne vivre que pour s'aimer Enracines dans le meme univers Mon amour Oh ! mon amour Quand ta vie m'etait offerte Dans les champs De nos printemps L'herbe etait plus tendre et verte Chanson souvenir Temoin de tant de bonheur Qui vient souvent Tirer a blanc A bout portant Sur ma memoire Chanson souvenir Fredonnee joue contre joue Quand tourne rien que pour nous Un vieux disque en trente-trois tours Chanson de nos souvenir Hymne dedie a notre amour Plus beau, plus grand, jour apres jour Qui tendrement dans nos c?urs fait jaillir Nos souvenirs |

Inoubliable by Charles Aznavour
Inoubliable Jolie en diable Creature de Dieu Follement femme Eau et flamme L'amour pour toi n'est que Jeux Inoubliable Comme le sable Tu files entre les doigts J'ai beau me dire Que t'aimer c'est du delire Oui mais ma vie, c'est toi On s'est aimes, engages Enchaines, desires, dechires Comme des amants Terribles et enrages Mais hormis la mort Rien ne peut nous briser Unis eternellement Dans un pacte plus fort Que le sang Inoubliable Indispensable Lumiere de mon coeur Tu me fascines Nuit et jour tu illumines Par ta presence Mon existence Assoiffee de bonheur Inoubliable Incontrolable Mi-ange et mi-demon Sous tous tes masques Tu restes belle et fantasque Toi, fille d'Eve Quand je te reve Au lit de mes passions |
