Lyrics and translation Gino Vannelli - Carnal Question




Carnal Question
Carnal Question
CARNEL QUESTION
QUESTION CARNELLE
If I came back just a cripple from the war
Si je revenais de la guerre comme un infirme
Would you hold me close just like you did before?
Me tiendrais-tu aussi serré contre toi ?
And what in the world would you do,
Et que ferais-tu
If I could not make love to you?
Si je ne pouvais plus te faire l'amour ?
The question is not whether the freedom we've got
La question n'est pas de savoir si la liberté qu'on a
Is worth the consequence of war.
Vaut la peine des conséquences de la guerre.
The question is just, can I hold you at dusk,
La question est simplement de savoir si je peux te serrer contre moi au crépuscule,
Without you asking me for more?
Sans que tu me demandes plus ?
A post-war eunuch,
Un eunuque d'après-guerre
A lover that is lame,
Un amant boiteux
Some famous hero, and one shares his name.
Un héros célèbre et on partage son nom
But where in the world would I go?
Mais pourrais-je aller ?
You're all that I love and all I know.
Tu es tout ce que j'aime et tout ce que je connais.
The question is plain,
La question est simple
Could our love still remain
Notre amour pourrait-il subsister
Without it's carnal ecstasy?
Sans son extase charnelle ?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oui, oui, oui
And who in the world would I be,
Et qui serais-je
If I lose all of you and half of me?
Si je te perdais toi et la moitié de moi ?
Oh...
Oh...
