Verse 1
As the blackbird in the spring
'neath the willow tree
Sat and piped I heard him sing

Praising Aura Lee.

Chorus
Aura Lea! Aura Lea! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 2
Take my heart and take my ring
I give my all to thee
Take me for eternity
Dearest Aura Lee!

Chorus
Aura Lea! Aura Lea! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 3
In her blush the rose was born
'twas music when she spoke
In her eyes the light of morn
Sparkling seemed to break.

Chorus
Aura Lee! Aura Lee! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 4
Aura Lee the bird may flee
The willow' golden hair
Then the wintry winds may be
Blowing ev'rywhere.

Chorus
Aura Lee! Aura Lee! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 5
Yet if thy blue eyes I see
Gloom will soon depart
For to me sweet Aura Lee
Is sunshine to the heart.

Chorus
Aura Lee! Aura Lee! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

In the rainy courtyard
In the wet wind of a summer night
A cat jumped onto the roof
Tea in a cup, hands in the wind

Since you left that day
Nothing is the same
Tonight seems longer than last night
Rain makes the flowers fall

Bricks are building life,
How many cracks so fragile are here
Bright eyes once filled with dreams
Cannot open when the morning comes

Since you left that day
Nothing is the same
Tonight seems longer than last night
Rain makes the flowers fall

Bricks are building life,
How many cracks so fragile are here
Bright eyes once filled with dreams
Cannot open when the morning comes

Well don't get any splinters on the floor

When you go down in the hole

Why don't you join people on the lawn

You work full time


Like a mole

You’re not a friend of mine, but I’m not afraid of dyingI just want to live alive,I wanna give it a try and face the ghosts that trouble my nightI’m gonna play my dime, even if chances are tight
It’s better to go now, before chances are goneDans les bras du hasard, j’ai glissé mon destin, ma douleurJ’ai laissé mon chagrin,J’ai caressé l’espoir en douceur, j’ai oublié mes peurs
Quand s’approche l’hiver, if faut rentrer son boisC’est le moment de le faire, avant que ne s’abatte le froidI know it sounds insane, but I’m not the one to blameWhen hope is fighting pain in a kind of silly gameWith such a beast to tame and a referee so lameSo I need to place my bet, I need to force the fateBefore I’m getting old, before it’s getting coldBefore chances are gone
Je veux redéployer mes ailes et tutoyer les arcs en cielWhen the chance comes and says your name, you’ll sense it’s the moment to decideJe veux remarcher sur les braises, faire le saut de l’ange du haut des falaises
Don’t wait, just go for it, you know it is time to set the timePuisque je n’ai plus rien à perdre, entre combat et prièreNow you feel it must be done, just get a ticket to the unknownAujourd’hui je choisis le glaive, pour qu’un nouveau jour se lèveAnd feel reborn, and feel rebornJ’ai trop donné, je veux qu’on me donne, before chances are gone
