C'est Noyé
© 2007 Victoria Vox (ASCAP)

V1:
Il y a de l'eau autour de moi
et sous le pont je m'assoie
toutes les heures le pont se lêve
et les bateaux vivent leurs rêves.

CH:
Et ils nagent, comme des poissons
sans frontière, sur cette terre ronde
sur la mer, il y a le vent, le soleil
et si j'ai du mal, c'est noyé, c'est noyé

V2:
Je vais sauter sur un bateau
hisse ces voiles allez go,
défais les noeuds qui me retiennent,
prends le volant capitaine

CH2:
Et je nage, comme un poisson
sans frontière, sur cette terre ronde
sur la mer, il y a le vent, le soleil
et si j'ai du mal, c'est noyé, c'est noyé

****************************************
They're Drowned
Translation by Victoria Vox

V1:
There's water all around me
And under the bridge, I sit.
Each hour the bridge goes up
And the boats live their dreams

CH:
And they swim, like fish
Without boundaries, on this round world
On the sea, there is the wind, the sun
And if I have troubles, they're drowned

V2:
I will jump aboard a boat
Hoist up it's sails, and go
Untie the knots that hold me back
And take the captains wheel

CH2:
And I swim, like a fish
Without boundaries, on this round world
On the sea, there is the wind, the sun
And if I have troubles, they're drowned

My daughter Lauren loves this song. And now, thanks to your lyics posting in the video info I can help her sing it better & I'll enjoy it with an added dimension! Translation, or not, it's sweet and fluid (as French should be!). Just like many others have expressed.

U R so beautiful, Victoria.....your voice, your face, your soul, your rapturous embrace of the world with all its pretense and glory inextricably intertwined.
