Lyrics and translation Tom Jones - Woman, You Took My Life

Woman, You Took My Life

Woman you were good to me
Did every single thing for me that you could do
When I could see no point in going on
Left myself of knowing that another day I'd see you

In my need I reached for you
A steady hand to lead me through the darkest day
You took me running chasing after better things
The laughter of another day

Imagine how I felt when I have found
You had gone away

Woman you took my hopes, you took my dreams
Woman you took my love, you took my sleep
You left me nothing else to do
But turn around and start anew
Woman when you walked out
You took my life away with you

Through a haze of fantasies, fears and uncertinties
You came to me
A reason to be going on, a hope when hope had nearly gone
A will in me it had to be
Imagine how I felt when I had found
You had gone away

Woman you took my hopes, you took my dreams
Woman you took my love, you took my sleep
You left me nothing else to do
But turn around and start anew
Woman when you walked out
You took my life away with you

Woman you took my hopes, you took my dreams
Woman you took my love, you took my sleep
You left me nothing else to do
But turn around and start anew
Woman when you walked out
You took my life away with you

Woman when you walked out
You took my life away with you

Femme, tu as pris ma vie

Femme, tu as été bonne avec moi
Tu as fait tout ce que tu pouvais pour moi
Quand je ne voyais plus aucun sens à continuer
Je me laissais aller à savoir que je te reverrais un autre jour

Dans mon besoin, j'ai tendu la main vers toi
Une main ferme pour me guider à travers les jours les plus sombres
Tu m'as fait courir après de meilleures choses
Le rire d'un autre jour

Imagine comment je me suis senti quand j'ai découvert
Que tu étais partie

Femme, tu as pris mes espoirs, tu as pris mes rêves
Femme, tu as pris mon amour, tu as pris mon sommeil
Tu ne m'as laissé rien d'autre à faire
Que de me retourner et de recommencer
Femme, quand tu es partie
Tu as emporté ma vie avec toi

À travers un brouillard de fantasmes, de peurs et d'incertitudes
Tu es venue à moi
Une raison de continuer, un espoir quand l'espoir avait presque disparu
Une volonté en moi, ça devait être
Imagine comment je me suis senti quand j'ai découvert
Que tu étais partie

Femme, tu as pris mes espoirs, tu as pris mes rêves
Femme, tu as pris mon amour, tu as pris mon sommeil
Tu ne m'as laissé rien d'autre à faire
Que de me retourner et de recommencer
Femme, quand tu es partie
Tu as emporté ma vie avec toi

Femme, tu as pris mes espoirs, tu as pris mes rêves
Femme, tu as pris mon amour, tu as pris mon sommeil
Tu ne m'as laissé rien d'autre à faire
Que de me retourner et de recommencer
Femme, quand tu es partie
Tu as emporté ma vie avec toi

Femme, quand tu es partie
Tu as emporté ma vie avec toi
