L'amour [English translation]

They show you the straight and narrow way,

so you keep your thoughts to yourself.

Heads or tails do not matter, let chance decide,

stop asking why.

You can then form quietly loving words and mutter them.

You can whistle like a bird as the sun rises.

You can let these words die in your mouth

and cry like a baby as the sun sets.

Aha, tell me we're together in this, my beauty, and that your voice beckons to me

Now tell me, what are we gonna do?

We make love, we make war.

You're told that everything is black and everything is white,

that you are either with or against and have to pick a side.

I won't. Let's see if we're allowed to keep hope.

We can say to the one we love that we love her and she's beautiful

Do it all over again every morning as the sun rises.

You can aim at every heart and never score a hit

and go home alone as the sun sets.

Aha, tell me we're together in this, my beauty, and that your voice beckons to me

Now tell me, what are we gonna do?

We make love, we make war.

Aha, tell me we're together in this, my beauty, and that your voice beckons to me

Now tell me, what are we gonna do?

We make love, we make war.

We want to stick our bodies together

and lay down our weapons,

surpassing death and climb higher still

till we reach the crowns of the trees

Aha, tell me we're together in this, my beauty, and that your voice beckons to me

Now tell me, what are we gonna do?

We make love, we make war.

Aha, tell me we're together in this, my beauty, and that your voice beckons to me

Now tell me, what are we gonna do?

We make love, we make war.
