jean-philippe verdin - dreamers
Dreamers and prayers
We don't know what's out there
There's no way we'll wake up
There's no way they'll leave us alone
Alone...
So whisper
Little prayer
We are dreaming and praying, yeah
We are just low fence
We'd shelter
And we'll dare to share the air
Ooh despair and we'll dare to jump high
And fly away with broken wings
No wings...
So whisper
Little prayer
We are dreamin'
And tryin'... Yeah !
So whisper
Little prayer
We are dreaming and duelling
Someone is watching
We were just laughing
We were dying
It was all lie
A bean in our eye
Our tears were so dry
So whisper, oh stay away
We are dreaming and praying
We were just laughing
We were dying
It was over
Our tears were so dry
For naught, for naught

jean-philippe verdin - exil
Et Chaque matin que je me lève,
Et me penche sur toi,
Une goutte de rosée à tes lèvres,
Un rayon au bout de tes doigts,
J'arrive a lire dans tes rêves,
Et tu penses pareil que moi.
Un exil, un exil,
Loin, loin de là.
Et je le jure sur le soleil,
Qui se lève au dessus des toits,
Qu'on s'en ira, qu'on s'en ira,
Loin de là oui, crois moi.
Oh mon égérie, quittons ce bitume qui nous rend gris,
Nous abrutis, et salit nos plumes,
Oh toutes ces prairies,
Si près d'où je viens,
Si loin d'où je suis,
Si loin d'où je suis,
Si près d'où je viens.
Et chaque soir que je m'endors,
Et te serre contre moi,
J'observe les courbes de ton corps,
Me rappelant les dunes d'autrefois,
Peu à peu tes songes s'évaporent,
Et tu penses pareil que moi.
Un exil, un exil,
Loin, loin de là.
Et je le jure sur les étoiles,
Qui brillent au dessus des toits,
Qu'on s'en ira, qu'on s'en ira,
Loin de là, oui crois moi,
Oh mon égérie,
Quittons ce bitume qui nous rends gris,
Nous abrutis,
Et salit nos plumes,
Oh toutes ces prairies,
Si près d'où je viens,
Si loin d'où je suis,
Si loin d'où je suis,
Si près d'où je viens.
Et chaque matin que je me lève,
Et me penche sur toi,
Une goutte de rosée à tes lèvres,
Un rayon au bout de tes doigts,
J'arrive à lire dans tes rêves,
Et tu penses pareil que moi.
jean-philippe verdin - little sister
We used to say
That we were
Brother and sister
We used to think
Nothing,was every bitter
Today,I break,my promises
To stay out of the emptiness
Today let's make our promises
For tomorrow
We used to play
All the games
Where no one's the winner
We used to laugh
And make lies
Some live in better
Today,I break,my promises
To stay out of the emptiness
Today let's make our promises
For tmorrow
La lalalalala La lalalalala La lalalalala Lalalalala (...)
We used to swear
That we were
Brother and sister
We always knew
That you
Will take me out there
Today,I break,my promises
To stay out of the emptiness
Today let's make our promises
For tomorrow
La lalalalala La lalalalala La lalalalala Lalalalala (...)
jean-philippe verdin - lola
I met her in a club down in old soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola
C-o-l-a cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said lola
L-o-l-a lola la-la-la-la lola
Well Im not the worlds most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my lola la-la-la-la lola
Well Im not dumb but I cant understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man
Oh my lola la-la-la-la lola la-la-la-la lola
Well we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said dear boy wont you come home with me
Well Im not the worlds most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my lola
La-la-la-la lola la-la-la-la lola
Lola la-la-la-la lola la-la-la-la lola
I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me
Well thats the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my lola
La-la-la-la lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
Its a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for lola
La-la-la-la lola
Well I left home just a week before
And I'd never ever kissed a woman before
But lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said dear boy Im gonna make you a man
Well Im not the worlds most masculine man
But I know what I am and Im glad I'm a man
And so is lola
La-la-la-la lola la-la-la-la lola
Lola la-la-la-la lola la-la-la-la lola
