Lyrics and translation Ben Folds - Losing Lisa (Demo, 2000)
The
lights
are
off
again
Les
lumières
sont
éteintes
à
nouveau
She
took
me
by
surprise
Tu
m'as
pris
par
surprise
She's
so
sensitive
Tu
es
si
sensible
This
shit
just
happens
sometimes
Ces
choses
arrivent
parfois
She's
my
everything
Tu
es
tout
pour
moi
She's
my
best
friend
and
more
Tu
es
ma
meilleure
amie
et
plus
encore
We
don't
do
anything
On
ne
fait
rien
We
didn't
do
the
day
On
n'a
pas
fait
la
journée
Before
you
go
Avant
de
partir
You
oughta
know
Tu
devrais
savoir
That
I
didn't
mean
to
hurt
you,
I
just
wanted
you
to
know
Que
je
ne
voulais
pas
te
faire
de
mal,
je
voulais
juste
que
tu
le
saches
Black
tears
are
falling
down
her
face
Des
larmes
noires
coulent
sur
ton
visage
And
I
am
wrong
Et
j'ai
tort
Black
tears
are
falling
and
she
won't
say
what
I've
done
Des
larmes
noires
coulent
et
tu
ne
dis
pas
ce
que
j'ai
fait
She's
sitting
here
beside
me,
then
she
is
gone
Tu
es
assise
ici
à
côté
de
moi,
puis
tu
t'en
vas
Black
tears
are
falling,
falling
Des
larmes
noires
coulent,
coulent
Remember
long
ago
Souviens-toi
il
y
a
longtemps
Together
laughing,
loving
On
riait
ensemble,
on
s'aimait
Oh
so
long
ago
Il
y
a
si
longtemps
When
we
were
buying
something
Quand
on
achetait
quelque
chose
Life
was
simple
then
La
vie
était
simple
à
l'époque
But
she's
not
happy
now,
and
I
Mais
tu
n'es
pas
heureuse
maintenant,
et
moi
Don't
feel
anything
Je
ne
ressens
rien
Her
lips
are
moving
Tes
lèvres
bougent
I
am
mesmerized
Je
suis
hypnotisé
By
tiny
lies
Par
des
petits
mensonges
I'm
watching
as
the
shapes
are
drawing
slowly
from
her
eyes
Je
regarde
les
formes
se
dessiner
lentement
de
tes
yeux
Black
tears
are
falling
down
her
face
Des
larmes
noires
coulent
sur
ton
visage
And
I
am
wrong
Et
j'ai
tort
Black
tears
are
falling
and
she
won't
say
what
I've
done
Des
larmes
noires
coulent
et
tu
ne
dis
pas
ce
que
j'ai
fait
She's
sitting
here
beside
me,
then
she
is
gone
Tu
es
assise
ici
à
côté
de
moi,
puis
tu
t'en
vas
Black
tears
are
falling,
falling
Des
larmes
noires
coulent,
coulent
Black
tears
are
falling,
falling
Des
larmes
noires
coulent,
coulent
Losing
Lisa
Perdre
Lisa
Losing
Lisa
Perdre
Lisa
Losing
Lisa
Perdre
Lisa
And
there's
nothing
I
can
do
Et
je
ne
peux
rien
faire
Black
tears
are
falling,
falling
(ooh
ooh)
Des
larmes
noires
coulent,
coulent
(ooh
