Everybody knows That you can’t fly from the tree tops Everybody knows But I still try so I might drop And when I look back
I won’t regret spreading my wings Though I might crash like a stone to the ground But on my way down I was flying for a while
Everybody knows That you can’t breathe underwater Everybody knows But I still try and maybe later I’ll be gasping for air And though you don’t care at least I have dared To pull treasures from an ocean of sound And on my way down I was drowning with a smile
Everybody knows That you can’t love love forever That you can’t change change the weather
And when I look back I won’t regret giving my heart Though it might break into pieces in time At least you were mine If only for a while Now everybody knows

Tout le monde sait Qu’on ne peut pas s’envoler de la cime des arbres Tout le monde le sait Mais j’essaie encore pour pouvoir tomber
