The Book of Laughter and Forgetting (iTunes Session) - Li Ronghao

Je commence un livre par la fin Et j'ai le menton haut pour un rien Mon œil qui pleure c'est à cause du vent Mes absences et du sentiment Je ne tiens pas debout Le ciel coule sur mes mains Je ne tiens pas debout Le ciel coule sur ... Ça ne tient pas debout Le ciel coule sur mes mains Ça ne tient pas debout Sous mes pieds le ciel revient Qui sourit rouge et me parle gris? Je fais semblant d'avoir tout compris Et il y a un type qui pleure dehors Sur mon visage de la poudre d'or Je ne tiens pas debout Le ciel coule sur mes mains Je ne tiens pas debout Le ciel coule sur ... Ça ne tient pas debout Le ciel coule sur mes mains Ça ne tient pas debout Sous mes pieds le ciel revient Nous et la man on est de sortie, Pire qu'une simple moitié On compte à demi-demi Pile sur un des bas côtés Comme des origamis Le bras tendu pareil cassé Tout n'est qu'épis et éclipse Ces enfants bizarres Crachés dehors comme par hasard Cachant l'effort dans le griffoir Une creepy song en étendard Qui fait: "J'fais tout mon make up Au mercurochrome Contre les pop-ups Qui m'assurent le trône J'fais tout mon make up Au mercurochrome Contre les pop-ups Qui m'assurent le trône" Je ne tiens pas debout Le ciel coule sur mes mains Je ne tiens pas debout Le ciel coule sur ... Ça ne tient pas debout Le ciel coule sur mes mains (Ça ne tient pas debout Le ciel coule sur mes mains Ça ne tient pas debout Le ciel coule sur mes mains Ça ne tient pas debout Le ciel coule sur mes mains Ça ne tient pas debout Le ciel coule sur mes mains) Je ne tiens pas debout Sous mes pieds le ciel revient

You're the Queen of the slipstream With eyes that shine You have crossed many waters to be here You have drank of the fountain of innocence And experienced the long cold wintry years. There's a dream where the contents are visible Where the poetic champions compose Will you breathe not a word of this secrecy, and Will you still be my special rose? I'm goin' away far across the sea But I'll be back for you Tell you everything I know, I know, I know baby Everything is true Will the blush still remain On your cheeks my love In the light, in the light, in the light always seen In your head? Gold and sliver they placed At your feet my dear But I know you chose me. Instead Well I'm, I'm goin' away far across the sea But I'll be back, I'll be back, I'll be back for you And you tell me everything I know Baby tell me everything is true You're the Queen of the slipstream I love you so You have crossed many waters to be here And you drink, and you drink, and you drink at the fountains of innocence And experienced, you know very well

There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun They spent a life of sin and misery Oh God I am done My mother was no tailor She stole my every thing My father was a music man Do you really know what that really means My brothers tell your sisters Not to do what I have done They have a life of hunger and misery Oh God, I'll be done One foot on this platform And the other foot on another train I'll never go back To where that ball and chain They can put me in my grave They are many houses where We come from and We call the Rising Sun I spent a life of sin and misery Oh God I am done

Call me on the phone today Said those words u always say And I cry Gotta figure out what's going on inside this head of mine I'll try Going crazy thinking 'bout the way I shouldn't have left it all by Now I'm gone and something's wrong I changed my mind I'm so in love with you, I don't know what to do, this time Although you're out of sight, you're never ever out of my mind. Saw you just the other day, feelings never went away I smile Told you I'll be back and I want us to be friends and be alright. Don't know what to say, it's been harder everyday but it takes time You should know, I'm coming home, stand by... I'm so in love with you, I don't know what to do, this time Although you're out of sight, you're never ever out of my mind As time passes by, I fall asleep without you by my side Ooh out of my mind, remembering the way we were... I'm so in love with you, I don't know what to do, this time Although you're out of sight, you're never ever out of my mind
