Le chanteur abandonné [English translation]

There are flat cases lying around on the stage

and we strip down the spotlights

when his life is no longer staged

it frightens him

All those new friends he likes

will be gone this week

in his dressing room, pictures, flowers,

a special kind of happiness

he clears his head,

he clears his heart

He is an abandoned singer

who lived without looking back

sure that blues was made

for him, this night,

because he could abandon himself

to those who have chosen to love him

he gave what he had

but he, he is wondering who he is

abandoned, yes abandoned,

and the girl that is waiting for him

who loves him like a child

whithout words, she understands his life

How good this is to be happy

Oh, how good this is to forget

that so much light

can hurt the eyes

And it clears his head,

Yes, it clears his heart

He is an abandoned singer

who lived without looking back

sure that blues was made

for him, this night,

because he could abandon himself

to those who have chosen to love him

he gave what he had

but he, he is wondering who he is

abandoned, yes abandoned,

Whatever the price

for always giving

it is beautiful, and he knows it

to have abandoned himself

living is like loving

living is like sharing

never give up

living is sharing

never give up

never give up

living is sharing

never give up
