paroles de chanson The Fall - Graham Nash

It all starts to happen with the sun going down
When the light gently falls and fades away
And the air hangs heavy with the scent of your soul
As it's saying goodbye to the end of the day

And it all begins with the kiss of a lifetime
That's never been given and never been alone
And is it God-given mercy, this absence of touch?
Should you love me at all, could I love you this much?

And I'm hearing your heart beat from the distance of memory
And with half of my heart, I respect your sad call
You can be who you are in this time of your trouble
This time that we're sharing before the last fall

And as I sit here and wonder about the fate of my being
And the weight of my seeing you so far away
But I refuse to go under this fog of my loneliness
When all of this heartache is heading my way

I'm seeing your soul through the eyes of eternity
When all my resistance is fading away
And from the depths of this hole, I can deal with your agony
Hoping to help you in any way

And I'm hearing your heart beat from the distance of memory
And with half of my heart, I respect your sad call
But you can be who you are in this time of your trouble
This time that we're sharing before the last fall

And from where I am standing, what looks like adversity
May be anxiety wrapped up in fear
Of failing to recognize the heartbeat of someone
Of someone who wants you and sees you so clear

I can only tell you to follow your feelings
And follow your heart to the end of the road
And you may find out when you finally get there
And open a window or close up the door

And I'm hearing your heart beat from the distance of memory
And with half of my heart, I respect your sad call
You can be who you are in this time of your trouble
This time that we're sharing before the last fall
