I love you because....

Music: SRV, right now “Change It”

Mood: “bucking up” slowly but steadily

In my glass: Sauvignon Blanc/Semillón (Chile)

Lazy day.... ah, it must be Friday... :P

I should have worked instead of having a lazy day. Ach.... I need to clear and empty my head before this working weekend. I have a translation job for this weekend... finally something else than my regular, weekly news stories! Yay! Hm, no, I’m not feeling like working. But each and every cent and euro is very welcome right now! Besides, this job is, as I said, much more fun to do than newspaper articles. So, no, I won’t complain..... no.. no.

Yesterday I had my hair dyed; yep, it’s that time again... I was all grey! It was nice weather and I decided to walk to town.. and to the salon, of course. It takes about 40 mins.

On my way, I noticed I was humming this old song... “I love you because”. It was one of my fave songs in my school days (this one was from my junior-high days), I had the record as well :)

Well, it’s in French and my knowledge of French stops at a few cooking terms so I don’t know what is all about. All I can sing along is the line “I love you because...”.

LOL! Ya, laughing.. cos.. I liked the song (and some others of Polnareff’s) but not enough to study French later.. (I did buy a F/J dictionary, I remember). Funny if I think how I got to study Russian instead.

Music now playing: “The Sky Is Crying” by SRV

I Love You Because

(Michel Polnareff)

I love you... because

I love you because
Cette fois j'ai envie d'autre chose
I love you because
Tu es la seule qui n'aime pas les roses

I love you because
Tu es la seule la seule la seule la seule
Oui I love you because
Tu es la seule qui ne donnes la main à personne
La seule qui m'étonne

I love you because
Toi ta rose n'est même pas éclose
I love you because
Ton silence à toi me repose

I love you because
Tu es la seule la seule la seule la seule
Oui I love you because
Tu es la seule qui ne donne ta main à personne
La seule qui m'étonne

I love you because
Tu es la seule, la seule qui n'es pas jalouse
I love you because
Tu ne veux surtout pas qu'on t'épouse

I love you because
Tu es la seule la seule la seule la seule
I love you because
Tu aimes autre chose
I love you, love you because
Tu ne m'en demandes pas la cause

I love you because
Tu n'es pas une virtuose
I love you because
Tu es si jeune si jeune si jeune si jeune
I love you because
Tu aimes autre chose

I love you, love you because
Cette fois, cette fois j'ai envie d'autre chose
[Paroles précédentes]
I love you because
Toi c'est autre chose
