The songs that we sing
by Charlotte Gainsbourg

I saw somebody who
reminded me of you
before you got afraid
i wish that you could´ve stayed that way
I saw a little girl
i stopped and smiled at her
she screamed and ran away
it happens to me more and more these days
{Refrain:}
and these songs that you sing
do they mean anything
to the people you´re singing them to
people like you
I saw a photograph
a woman in a bath
of hundred dollar bills
if the cold doesn´t kill her, money will
I read a magazine
that said by seventeen
your life was at an end
i´m dead and i´m perfectly content
{au Refrain, x2}
