Life’s become so fragile
now that I care
But I guess that means that I’m
Getting somewhere
Remember the time
Laying in your bedWhen you told me that you loved me
And you stroked my head

And I stared out the open window
I’d even told you
That one night howWords don’t mean a thing
But it’s alright
Cause every time
I open my mouth
And I wanna tell you something
But something else comes out

But do you know that I need you nowI’m trying to tell you but I don’t know how
So much frustration in my
Untidy roomThat you thoughtfully went andGot me a broom
But inside my room
Is a messy mind that isTangled and twisted
And untied

You know that I’m not too organisedI’m trying to be but I don’t have the time
The cement in my headWas making me sinkBut you pulled me up
and it hurts a little less to think
So life’s a little fragile
But I guess it always isWhen you’ve got some sort of reasonThat makes you wanna live
But will you share a bit of the weightI’ve carried it with me for 21 years straight

Let my eyes keep on roamingAs you look the other wayIn the end you know I’m not goingSo we’ll just stay the same
Straight past me and straight aheadAs you tell me what you think I needYou haven’t heard a word I’ve saidJust rehearsed lines that you feed me
Stay with me in silence
I’m trying to tell you what I’m missingAs you tell me nothing is wrongBut how can you see when you don’t listenLook ahead and move along
Stay with me in silenceStay with me, but leave me in silence

Oh leave the curtains drawn
And don’t bother staying onLet me pretend that I’m not myself
For a little while, seeThen I’m back on my feetIn the same old skin I know so well
Oh leave me in my little tuneI promise I’ll be back soon
Oh it’s hard to get byWhen you’re afraid to crySo you close your lips and cast your eyes down
You’ve got so much to tell
And so much to yellSo why do you whisper still
Will you tell me if you get boredAnd you don’t feel like staying anymore
Oh and everytime you’re hereNo I don’t want you near,But I can’t take it when you’re gone
So leave me for a while
But leave me with a smileSo that I know you’ll be back for more
Oh please be patient with meThis is not how I wanted to be

Oh I’ll always be there
To show you that I careBut I’m just not very good with words
So I hope you’ll understand
That a squeeze of my hand
Means that I’m all yours
Oh please be patient with me
This is not how I wanted to be

And will you tell me if you get boredAnd you don’t feel like staying anymore

Mon paradis c'est Paris,Même quand il est gris,Des bords de Marne à la rue de Rivoli,Il y flott' un air de fête,Mon paradis c'est Paris.
Un parfum de bohême anime les faubourgs,On s'encanaille on s'aime, et jusqu'au petit jour,Belles Gueules et garçonnes, poètes et dandysOn ne refuse personne, pourvu qu'on aime la vie !

English translation :

MON PARADIS
My paradise is ParisEven on grey daysFrom the banks of the Marne to the rue de RivoliA festive tune floats on the airMy paradise is Paris
A scent of bohemia perfumes suburbsWe take chances, we make love till the first lights of dawnHandsome chaps and flappers, poets and dandiesAll welcome, so long as they are lovers of life

Looking out canʼt you see

Itʼs only us

We donʼt need the things that others said were true

Take your time

Donʼt need to rush

Love of mine put your trust in me weʼll fade out to the blue

Follow me in to all

We could be

Letʼs just fall in to a place where we donʼt know

It could be everything

Weʼd ever need

Sink or swim weʼll never have to love alone

Looking out canʼt you see

Itʼs enough

We didnʼt need the things that others said were true

I'll be waiting here when you get home

Days turn in to years when I'm on my own

Not much happens here when you're gone

I thought I'd be fine but I was wrong

Will you stay

Will you stay

Will you stay with me now

What's the weather like where you are now?

How do people talk in your town?

You can call me up if you want to

The sound of your voice breaks the blues

Will you stay
Will you stay

Will you stay with me now
