Once in a life We lived in a sanctuary A song could get us free Slept behind the altar Only the singer saw Now it is gone, years on Times we took alone Stealing an hour, buying a night It's hard on the telephone Love outside the law Jai tant reve du toi Is it gone, this year Is the song still in your ear Were we only high Just the wine Only the times When we're old How will the story be told Windswept smoke used by time Waiting for the bus Will that be us? Do you recall my friend We never thought we'd ever fall When the salesman came to call Selling our soul to buy Sometimes it ain't no deal at all Jai tant reve du toi
