![]() D'ici et d'ailleurs (2008) [ larger cover art ] |
On ne peut pas se défaire
de l'endroit d'où l'on vient
la mère et l'enfant ne sont jamais très loin
on a laissé les siens partir trop souvent, il le faut bien
on apprend à dire "non" un matin
Moi je souris aux petits bonheurs
je souris, c'est bien mieux comme ça
c'est bien mieux comme ça
Bâtir des murs autour de soi
vouloir se protéger du froid
tout ce temps qui passe on en revient pas
quels sont ceux à qui je tiens ?
la solitude me va si bien
mais si l'amour s'en vient s'en va
Moi je souris aux petits bonheurs
je souris, c'est bien mieux comme ça
je me fous des petits malheurs
je m'en fous, c'est bien mieux comme ça
Moi je souris aux petits bonheurs
je souris, c'est bien mieux comme ça
je me fous des petits malheurs
je m'en fous, c'est bien mieux comme ça
de l'endroit d'où l'on vient
la mère et l'enfant ne sont jamais très loin
on a laissé les siens partir trop souvent, il le faut bien
on apprend à dire "non" un matin
Moi je souris aux petits bonheurs
je souris, c'est bien mieux comme ça
c'est bien mieux comme ça
Bâtir des murs autour de soi
vouloir se protéger du froid
tout ce temps qui passe on en revient pas
quels sont ceux à qui je tiens ?
la solitude me va si bien
mais si l'amour s'en vient s'en va
Moi je souris aux petits bonheurs
je souris, c'est bien mieux comme ça
je me fous des petits malheurs
je m'en fous, c'est bien mieux comme ça
Moi je souris aux petits bonheurs
je souris, c'est bien mieux comme ça
je me fous des petits malheurs
je m'en fous, c'est bien mieux comme ça

There is no sense of trying items from a shopping list on for size - instead she has incorporated these influences into her soul and her music is a natural expression of this.
