Lyrics
Je ne peux pas vivre
Je ne peux pas mourir
Pris entre la vie et la mort
Deux vies, deux amours
Your untouchable young face
I cradled your confidence and faith
Too much I just didn’t know
I remain on earth without you
Are you looking down or up from under?
Do I follow you through to the sea?
Communing each week in the valley
The earth, the moon and the sun
All the things that we envisioned
Now all that world is gone
All that time you didn’t let on
The end had come, you were done
I remain on earth without you
Are you looking down or up from under?
Do I follow you through to the sea?
Communing each week in the valley
I cannot live
I cannot die
Caught between two worlds
Life after life after life afterlife afterlife afterlife…
I remain on earth without you
Are you looking down or up from under?
Do I follow you through to the sea?
Communing each week in the valley
