An easy way

Les coulisses

Revisite de la chanson de Janvier 1989 qui avait été à l'époque écrite pour la naissance de Victot l'ainé de half-monmix et se présentait comme les conseils d'un père à son fils à venir pour se lancer dans la vie. L'arrangement est resté dans l'esprit de l'original avec de sérieuses touches de modernité (et de qualité), des surprises tout au long de la chanson (à commencer par une intro enigmatique) et surtout avec la contribution de Grigou, le cousin de Victor sur les parties parlées et sur le tout dernier couplet ajouté sur l'instrumental final qui figurait dans l'original version 1989

Paroles

Since you came in my life like drums come in a dance song
Since you came in my life like piano comes in a love song
Since you came in my life like saxo comes in a jazz song
I've never wanted to be someone else for nothing at all
When you open your eyes, You look at me and smile, little child
I feel good, so good

Whatever comes, I'll never let you down
I want to spend my life to look after you Even if the things I want for youAre not really easy to do
I want to spend my life for you

Baby, until the time you'll find your wayI'll take your hand
I'll take your hand to show you an easy way
With all of my heart, until the time you'll find your way
I'll take your hand
I'll take your hand to show you an easy way
To show you an easy way

A day, the time will come for you to fly with your own wings
I don't worry for you, my child, I know it's a good thing
I'll remember my life with you, it was so shining
I've never wanted to be someone else for nothing at all
When you sleeps in my arms
When you dream beside my heart, little child
I feel good, so good

Whatever comesI'll never let you down
I want to spend my life to look after you
Even if the things I want for you
Are not really easy to doI want to spend my life for you

Baby, until the time you'll find your wayI'll take your hand
I'll take your hand to show you an easy way
With all of my heart, until the time you'll find your wayI'll take your hand
I'll take your hand to show you an easy way
To show you an easy way

But before you move on, let me tell you a few things
that I’ve learnt along the way
Throughout my life, beware of time,
it will never wait for you
You’ll learn the words, the good and the bad ones,
you’ll walk, you’ll run
To your mother, to my arms,
to your friends and away from thunder
You’ll get some tears when sadness is stronger,
when joy is in excess
Don’t try to retain them, never,
they are the proof of your humanity
There will be days, there will friends, there will be nights,
There will be ways, there will be ends, there will be fights
You’ll fall in love, you’ll fly over ,
you’ll be betrayed, you’ll fall under
You will rebounce cause in your heart
you’ll find the strength to live again
Remember happyness only exists if it is shared
For now, Enjoy, smile, feel, run, love,don’t be afraid
There will be an end to it but you simply don’t know when
So make sure you’ll have made the good use of your time by then
