Strangers when we Leave…

Musique : Alain Bashung / paroles : Boris Bergman
Adaptation en anglais de  "vertige de l´amour" par Boris Bergman

Friend, spin me no yarn…
Please no more fairy tales…
I was born in a barn
On a ship with no sails…

I´ve travelled the seas …
She took me for a ride …
Merry maid from Chelsea
That called herself a bride …
I hope you´re on my side…

OOO  strangers when we leave…

Halloween comes early …
It´s trick or treat in gringoland …
You don´t look so happy…

Yesterday’s candies have  turned to sand
Why don´ you take my hand…

/ OOO  strangers when we leave…

I see a strange light in the air
Is it the bonfire from the fair…?
Is it a sign, a kind of warning
For the last skater on the ring

OOOO  strangers when we leave…

Friend, spin me no yarn…
Please no more fairy tales…
I was born in a barn
On a boat with no sails…
