Lyrics and translation Richard Hawley - Standing At the Sky's Edge




Standing At the Sky's Edge
Au bord du ciel
Joseph was a good man though he killed his wife
Joseph était un bon homme, même s'il a tué sa femme
His hungry little children, he took their lives
Ses petits enfants affamés, il leur a pris la vie
This was the end of a desperate man
C'était la fin d'un homme désespéré
With only love in his eyes, no evil hands.
Avec seulement l'amour dans les yeux, pas de mains maléfiques.
He was standing at the sky's edge
Il se tenait au bord du ciel
And out there who knows what he's thinking,
Et là-bas, qui sait à quoi il pense,
He was sliding down the razor's edge
Il glissait le long du fil du rasoir
And watched his life slowly sinking,
Et regardait sa vie couler lentement,
Away, away.
Loin, loin.
Mary was a troubled girl, she stole to eat
Marie était une fille troublée, elle volait pour manger
She had to sell her body to put shoes on her feet
Elle devait vendre son corps pour mettre des chaussures à ses pieds
Stole a car and tried to get away
Elle a volé une voiture et a essayé de s'enfuir
Now all she hears is the rain on the roof
Maintenant, tout ce qu'elle entend est la pluie sur le toit
At sky's edge jail.
À la prison au bord du ciel.
She was standing at the sky's edge
Elle se tenait au bord du ciel
And out there who knows what she's thinking
Et là-bas, qui sait à quoi elle pense
She was sliding down the razor's edge
Elle glissait le long du fil du rasoir
And watched her life slowly sinking.
Et regardait sa vie couler lentement.
Away, away.
Loin, loin.
They were standing at the sky's edge,
Ils se tenaient au bord du ciel,
And out there who knows what they're thinking.
Et là-bas, qui sait à quoi ils pensent.
They were sliding down the razor's edge
Ils glissaient le long du fil du rasoir
And watched their lives slowly sinking,
Et regardaient leurs vies couler lentement,
Away, away, away, away, away.
Loin, loin, loin, loin, loin.
Jacob was misguided, he carried a blade,
Jacob était égaré, il portait une lame,
So much fear in the city it carried him away.
Tant de peur dans la ville qu'elle l'a emporté.
Young men were fighting and loosing their lives
Les jeunes hommes se battaient et perdaient la vie
At night as the screech howls in the trees watch
La nuit, alors que le crissement hurle dans les arbres, regarde
Young men die.
Les jeunes hommes meurent.
They were standing at the sky's edge,
Ils se tenaient au bord du ciel,
And out there who knows what they're thinking.
Et là-bas, qui sait à quoi ils pensent.
They were sliding down the razor's edge,
Ils glissaient le long du fil du rasoir,
And watched their lives slowly sinking,
Et regardaient leurs vies couler lentement,
They were standing at the sky's edge,
Ils se tenaient au bord du ciel,
And out there there's dangerous thinking,
Et là-bas, il y a des pensées dangereuses,
They were standing at the mirror's edge,
Ils se tenaient au bord du miroir,
And watched their lives slowly sinking,
Et regardaient leurs vies couler lentement,
Away, away, away, away, away.
Loin, loin, loin, loin, loin.
