Lyrics


Ah! c'est un travail que cet
amour qui fait souffrir
Qui frustre quand on n'arrive
pas a s'ouvrir

Le carcan le control semblent
alors plus faciles
Ne reservent pourtant que des
temps difficiles

On le force, on le crie
on cherche ‡ l'exprimer, l'exorciser
Dans un effort de dÈtente
de laisser aller, laisser aller

Quand l'amour prÈvaut il invite
‡ la transformation
La volontÈ de puissance n'est
que fait Èvanescent

¿ chacun l'amour apporte
l'espace infini, l'envie de vivre
Et non, c'est un sage dÈmon
on en a jamais fini avec lui

Quand l'amour prÈvaut
il invite ‡ la transformation
La volontÈ de puissance n'est
que fait Èvanescent

On le force, on le crie
on cherche ‡ l'exprimer, l'exorciser
Dans un effort de dÈtente
de laisser aller, laisser aller...

 translation
Ah! Such work, this
love that brings suffering,
Which frustrates when we fail
to open ourselves

The prisoner's yoke of
self-imposed restraint
therefore seems easier,
but only leads to hard times

We're forcing it, shouting it,
trying to express it, exorcise it
In an effort of relaxation,
of letting go, letting go

When love prevails,
it greets transformation.
The will to power is just
an evanescent fact

To each person, love brings
infinite space and the will to live
And then again, love is a wise demon
with whom we are never done

When love prevails,
it greets transformation.
The will to power is just
an evanescent fact

We're forcing it, shouting it,
trying to express it, exorcise it
In an effort of relaxation,
of letting go, letting go...
