Lyrics and translation The Weather Station - Life's Work
Life's Work
L'œuvre de ta vie
I
always
did
listen
to
you
J'ai
toujours
écouté
ce
que
tu
disais
Singing
all
the
way
through
En
chantant
tout
au
long
Your
life's
work,
passion,
caution,
timing
De
l'œuvre
de
ta
vie,
ta
passion,
ta
prudence,
ton
timing
Try
what
you
saw,
and
you
try
what
you
knew
Essaie
ce
que
tu
as
vu,
et
essaie
ce
que
tu
sais
It
was
never
always
true
Ce
n'était
pas
toujours
vrai
Your
life's
work
teasing
you
L'œuvre
de
ta
vie
te
taquine
Like
a
statue,
so
dignified,
so
blind
Comme
une
statue,
si
digne,
si
aveugle
They
take
and
they
take
Ils
prennent
et
ils
prennent
But
they
don't
seem
to
receive
Mais
ils
ne
semblent
pas
recevoir
And
you
don't
sleep,
and
there's
no
money
Et
tu
ne
dors
pas,
et
il
n'y
a
pas
d'argent
Your
life's
work,
passion,
caution,
timing
L'œuvre
de
ta
vie,
ta
passion,
ta
prudence,
ton
timing
Try
as
you
might,
and
try
as
you
will
Essaie
comme
tu
peux,
et
essaie
comme
tu
veux
You
were
never
truly
still
Tu
n'as
jamais
été
vraiment
immobile
And
you
try
what
you
saw
Et
tu
essaies
ce
que
tu
as
vu
And
you
try
what
you
love
Et
tu
essaies
ce
que
tu
aimes
It
would
never
be
enough
Ce
ne
serait
jamais
assez
Try
as
you
might
Essaie
comme
tu
peux
And
try
as
you
will
Et
essaie
comme
tu
veux
You
were
never
truly
still
Tu
n'as
jamais
été
vraiment
immobile
