never
had
this

je
n'ai
jamais
eu

never
mean
what
they
meant
Ils
ne
signifient
jamais
ce
qu'ils
veulent
dire
And
God
help
us
all
Et
que
Dieu
nous
aide
tous
Not
to
be
so
stone
surprised
À
ne
pas
être
si
surpris
When
we
wake
up
in
the
stars
Quand
nous
nous
réveillerons
dans
les
étoiles
With
the
skies
in
our
eyes
Avec
le
ciel
dans
les
yeux
If

Et

n'avons
pas
eu
le
temps
de
jouer
Oh
no
Oh
