A month ago I proofread songs lyrics and translated a song from French to English for a new French singer Halim Corto Monday, December 26, 2011 2:49:14 AM

And today I learn his album is number one seller in fnac in France
Congrats Halim smile 


I’m one of them 


I’ve learned through tears, I’ve learned through cries.
Don’t you feel the pain my writing implies
… Don’t judge me for what is now mine 
I had to make choices and l’ll pay the price 
I’m one of those men who will never give up 
against all odds and step by step
We’re the people who will never yield to 
injustice or the envious crew .
I was hurt too often, each time I got up again.
They criticize what you do but they are jealous of you.
If your heart’s at peace no more , just let the warrior roar,
release his fierce soul and you’ll be proud
To be free…to be free

Je l’ai trouvé Thursday, December 22, 2011 9:15:10 PM

Je l’ai trouvé
Sans l’avoir cherché
Ce soir là, il était d’humeur gaie
Moi, j’avais de l’amour à donner

L’humour et l’amour se sont entremêlés
Il m’a fait la cour et j’ai craqué
Ses doux mots d’amour m’ont fait rêver
J’étais tellement sûre qu’on s’était trouvés

Pour commencer, il m’a fait rire
Il a fini par me séduire
Je lui ai donné toute ma spontanéité
Tout à tour coquine et câline pour l’envoûter

Mais le bonheur n’a pas duré
Dans son univers, il est retourné
Il est parti sur la pointe des pieds
Me laissant blessée et dans l’incrédulité

Il n’a pas fait semblant
D’être mon prince charmant
Mais nous avons passé les meilleurs moments
Et c’était le plus tendre des amants

J’avais juré de finir ma vie seule et libre
Mais son désir de moi m’a rendue ivre
Peu importe les années qui me restent à vivre
Sans son humour et sa tendresse , je ne peux survivre

J’aurais dû depuis longtemps dans ma vie faire le ménage
Cela m’ aurait évité d’être volage
Nous nous étions trouvés tels des enfants pas sages
Des complices dans nos bêtises sans âge

Je ne crois plus au prince charmant depuis longtemps
Mais lui, il a su réveiller mon coeur d’enfant
J’espère que nous avons un avenir pourtant
Que mon futur sera un jour notre présent

Pour Paloma et Mika For Paloma and Mika (written in October 2010, it’s also on MFC thread for Paloma) Thursday, December 22, 2011 12:39:09 AM

La vie est étrange

Un démon peut se tranformer en ange

Au détour d’un chemin

On se perd ou on se rejoint

Tantôt on sourit

Tantôt on pousse un cri

Les amours vont et viennent

Les amours se perdent et se reprennent

Rien dans la vie

N’est jamais acquis

La vie comme les vagues de l’océan

Est un éternel recommencement

Nous ne sommes que des jouets d’enfants

Bercés d’illusions dans ce mouvement

Notre propre histoire nous échappe

Telle une bulle que le vent rattrape

Il y a toujours de l’espoir

Même dans les moments les plus noirs

Puissent l’amour et l’amitié

Mettre en déroute l’adversité

Que le temps emporte

Au loin cette cohorte

Pour qu’un nouvel été

Vous dure l’éternité

***********************

For Paloma and Mika

Life is strange

A demon can turn into an angel

At a bend

We part or we meet again

Sometimes you smile

Sometimes you scream

Love comes and goes

Love is lost and resume

Nothing in life Is ever granted

Life like the waves of the ocean

Starts again and again

We are only children’s toys

Deluded in this movement

Our own history escapes us

Like a bubble caught in the wind

There’s always hope

Even in the darkest night

May love and friendship

Rout adversity

That time takes

Off this cohort

And bring you a new summer

That will last forever

Song for O Wednesday, December 21, 2011 6:50:38 PM

I see stars in your eyes For you I would run miles Even though time flies You always give me the butterflies Your sweet voice and lips Are total bliss I’d love to give you a kiss the kiss of a sis One look at you I know love is true I dream of meeting you I can’t live without you I know your life isn’t mine But on my life, let it shine I have this hope in my heart One day, we won’t be apart You carry me away I dream of you night and day you’re my sweet enigma And eternal dilemna Can we be together some day? I wonder what game we would play Don’t fear anything from me I only want you to be happy I love you with all my heart My eternal love and sweetheart My heart would skip a beat If only again we could meet On me you left your inprint I always follow my instinct You tattoed me with your ink We share such a tender link You’re my dream love As pure as a dove More subtle than a cat So sweet to my heart You have this special magic You make daily life epic Keep on living for glitter Make me feel the shiver I always knew There was no one else like you You’re my eternal sunshine And I will no more whine Living in your shadow Feeling like a marshamallow A simple word from you Makes the world so new Be forever my impossible lover Our relashionship will never be over As long as my heart beats Your soul to mine speaks I love you more than life itself I’d do anything for you sweet elf Ask and your wish will come real Cause loving you helped me heal Your sweet accent, your velvet skin You are my king, my tender sin You put a spell on me , baby That will last for eternity Your magic powers , your long eyelashes Make my heart flames and ashes I’m so overwhelmed with loving I can never resist you my darling Promise me some day you’ll hold my hand And we’ll walk together in a dream land And the children we never ceased to be Will be united in peace and harmony

Love is like a roller coaster Wednesday, December 21, 2011 6:40:46 PM

Love is like a roller coaster

No drug can take you higher

It made me laugh and fly

Then made me drown and cry

Poor heart, one minute filled with passion

And the next , dry of emotions

Drenched in a storm of tears

That’s what the outcome of love is

But that short lived happiness

Might live again, I’m not hopeless

With a better timing we will be

One day lovers for real maybe

It would be so worth trying

I had never felt such a feeling

You and I being naughty and happy

Is it only a fantasy?

You showed me the way to heaven

Then told me it had to end

Time will mend and time will tell

Time will heal and make me well

This is not my first heart burn

I thought it would never happen again

Having hidden my heart so well

But you came along and I fell

And so fast went from heaven to hell

I need to cry but I won’t yell

I’ve let you see the inner me

Never wore a mask with thee

Never did I share so openly

My thoughts and my intimacy

Now you’ve gone away baby

I try to drown myself in tea

Will there ever be a “we”?

Can’t help feeling sad and bitter

For you I think I would have liked winter

It was so easy you made everything better

I miss you and it feels like it’s forever

You gave me hope and light

And took it all away in a sight

Since then nothing’s right

My heart and my brain are in a fight

I followed my instinct and trusted your sweet words

You made me so happy when you took me into your world

Now I’m left with doubts and bruises

Why did you have to be a tease?

You took me so far away from myself

I felt we were the same self

Now I’m here all by myself

Trying to pick up the pieces you left

I once was puzzled and bedazzled

Now I’m in the dark and crippled

How could such a sweet dream

Turn into nightmare and make me scream

It hurts so much and I feel ashamed

Like I did something wrong and I’m to blame

I wish I could cut off both heart and brain

So I could get rid of the pain

But all I can do is go on Pretending

I don’ t feel alone

And keep hope

Silly as it may sound

Living on love and tea Wednesday, December 21, 2011 6:33:00 PM

I have this image obsessing me
You and me after love drinking tea
With milk and sugar and honey
Living on love and tea

So I started drinking tea slowly 
I imagine you and me in a fantasy
It may sound silly you see
But this dream helps me

Feeling closer to you dear
Making myself believe you’re here
making me believe you’re near
whispering sweet words to my ear

Praying one day my dream comes true
Hoping one day there will be a me and you
Not knowing what the future will do
Crossing fingers I can have you

It felt like heaven I swear it’s true
Being in your arms , with you
Cuddled up in a world of our own
Never again we’d be alone.

You my love to keep and cherish
To cuddle to and to kiss 
To feel the softness of bliss
Bedazzled that you could exist 

Lost in a maze of emotion
feeling in slow motion
living the moment’s oblition
in an eternal repetition
