RETOUR

H.B.P.

Verse 1
Another lonely night, music getting to my ears
What haven't I done right, to be so lonely through the years
My heart gets so tight, when my eyes fill with tears

Chorus
Full moon shinning over me
Just feeling so free

Verse 2
Will I one day see the light, that will wash away my fears
I just want to hold you tight, under the sky so clear
Life isn't always as we wish, so I'd be stop being so selfish

Chorus

Bridge
I hope you'll find the one for you
And you know I'll always be there for you

Verse 3
Knowing that you are so happy, that's all that should import to me
My life hasn't come to an end, this is just another bend
Strange feeling of loneliness, but it's just happiness

Chorus

RETOUR

HELP ME FIND MY WAY HOME

Verse 1
I left my home many years before today
Didn't want anybody to know where I was
I lived alone, always on the road
No one to talk to and no one to love

Chorus
Help me find my way home
Won't you please help me find my way home
For too long I've been alone
Won't you please help me find my way home

Verse 2
Walking on the dusty and winding roads
Thinking about what my life had brought to me
There've been good times and bad times too
But know I feel like I've got to go home

Chorus

Verse 3
What will I find when I get there
Will it all still be the same
Will all my friends still be there
And will they still be my friends

Chorus

RETOUR

Hey man

Verse 1
Hey man, what have you done to that kid
She's come to me in tears
She doesn't like the games you make her play
When you slip into her bed at night

Chorus
Leave her alone
She's just a kid
You're ruining her life
With your atrocities

Verse 2
Hey man, what have you done to that kid
She's come to me with bruises all over her body
how can you think about hitting your child
Without being ashamed of yourself

Chorus

Verse 3
Hey man, what have you done to that woman
She's come to me with her mind all screwed up
She wanted to tell her mum about you, but she couldn't
Because she loved her mum, and one fucked up life was enough

Chorus

RETOUR

Never Forget

Verse 1
Ever since you've been seventeen
You're afraid to be alone with a boy
You won't ever forget
The faces of the men who raped you

Chorus

You will never forget
What they've done to you, what they've done to you
You will never forget
What they've done to you, what they've done

Verse 2
You didn't go to court
You didn't want everybody to know what they'd done to you
It ruined the rest of your life, though
All you want now, is to take revenge

Chorus

Verse 3
Do you really think it's the right solution
Will you be happier when they're dead
Is it easier to live with a crime on your conscience
Than to try to pass over it

Chorus

RETOUR

Pourquoi veux-tu t'en aller

Couplet 1
J'ai appris ce matin une bien triste nouvelle
J'ai entendu dire que tu voulais partir
Pourquoi ne m'avoir jamais rien dit
Pourquoi ce sont d'autres gens qui me l'ont appris

Refrain
Pourquoi veux-tu t'en aller
Je ne comprends pas
Après tout ce que nous avons vécu ensemble
Pourquoi veux-tu me quitter

Couplet 2
Moi je t'ai tout donné
Je t'ai ouvert mon cœur et mes pensées
Est-ce que je t'aurais étouffée
Volé trop de ta liberté

Refrain

Couplet 3
Tu es partie sans me dire au revoir
Et je reste seul dans mon ignorance
Mais je resterai ici toute ma vie
Attendant à jamais ton retour

Refrain

RETOUR

Sue Ann

Verse 1
When I walk in these dirty black streets
And see these junkies, and where they meet
It always reminds me, your tragic destiny
And I always end up crying, deep inside of me
I will never forget, forget the years
All those beautiful years, I spent with you

Chorus
Sue Ann, you memory, your memory's still alive
And you know it will never, never die
Sue Ann you seemed so happy then, always by my side
But you know you were living a lie

Verse 2
Why did you have to try that stuff?
Look what, what it did to you
Did your life get better, did it help you through
Or did you just do it, do it for you
Your friends stopped going out with you
But they couldn't understand, what you were going through

Chorus

Verse 3
One night, you went home, all alone
You hadn't had a good day, I tried to phone
No one ever answered, as you lay up on your bed
That's when your parents, they found you dead
Sue Ann your life, your life it ended then
But you really should have understood, you had a friend

Chorus

RETOUR

TATTOO

Verse 1
A brand new tattoo maker had arrived in town
With beautiful tattoos on his arms
I was only fourteen, but I wanted a tattoo
I went to see the man and asked him for his prices

Chorus
I've got a tattoo, on my right arm
I've got a tattoo, on my left arm
I've got a tattoo, yes I have
And I'm proud

Verse 2
The next day I went to school in a sleeveless T-shirt
So everybody could see my tattoos
All the boys were jealous of me
But they couldn't guess how I was suffering

Chorus

Verse 3
Now that so many years have passed
I don't like my tattoos anymore
I want to make them disappear
But I ain't got the money for it anymore

Chorus 2
I've got a tattoo, on my right arm
I've got a tattoo, on my left arm
I've got a tattoo, yes I have
I'm not proud

Bridge

Chorus 3
I've got a tattoo, on my right arm
I've got a tattoo, on my left arm
I've got a tattoo, But I'm not proud
Anymore

RETOUR

BAD DREAMS 2003

Verse: Cm-Eb-Fm-Ab maj7
Chorus: Bb-Ab-Cm (4X)
Ab-Cm (4X)

Verse 1
Sometimes when you're sleeping late at night
Long after you've turned out the light
You feel that something isn't right

You wake up in such a strange place
You're so scared, you can't even race
You're afraid to see his face

There's nothing that you can do
You see a door, (but) you can't get through
It's getting closer to you

Chorus
You're having a bad dream
Don't know where you are
You want to scream
But you're too far
You're having a bad dream
Can't go back to sleep
You're having a bad dream
And you've lost your sheep

Verse 2
He's so close, you can hear him breathe
It's so cold, your body's starting to freeze
You just want to see him leave

You feel his hands on your throat
Coming out of his big black coat
He doesn't seem to be a ghost

Your feet start to leave the ground
You listen, (but) you can't hear a sound
You know you won't win this round

Chorus

Verse 3
Now you're in your bed awake
At last you can have a break
You feel like a piece of cake

Your throat is just tied in a knot
It's winter, but you just feel so hot
Fear is all that you've got

Even though the man with no face has left
You don't want to feel what you just felt
But you can't fasten your seatbelt

Chorus 2
You were having a bad dream
Didn't know where you were
You wanted to scream
Running from that fur
You were having a bad dream
Couldn't go back to sleep
You were having a bad dream
You had lost your sheep

RETOUR

THE BEND

Verse: G-G/B-G/C-D-D/F#
Chorus: Em-D-Em-D-Em-D-C-D

Verse 1
This is the story sad but true
About me and a girl named Drew
I promised I'd only have a drop
But instead I drunk 'till I got to the top

Chorus 1
We got to the bend
That was the end
Please don't cry
We will learn to fly

Verse 2
All seemed surrounded by fog
I guess I should blame the grog
The moon was shinning so bright
I didn't see the turn was so tight

Chorus 2
We got to the bend
That was the end
Please don't cry
We are starting to fly

Verse 3
I had never felt so free
With so many memories
Maybe I shouldn't have poured all that Rhum
On the back of my tongue

Chorus 3
We got to the bend
That was the end
You are right to cry
We are starting to die

RETOUR

LEAVE US ALONE

Verse: E5-D5-A5-B5-G-E(le mi grave seul 2X)
Chorus: B5-D5-A5

Verse 1
Getting divorced or getting engaged
Each time we/you finish on the front page
Each time we/you go out at night
We/you've got to make things right
We/you don't have no liberty
We/you don't have no intimacy

Chorus
Why can't they leave us/you alone
Why can't we/you have some peace
Why can't they leave us/you alone

Verse 2
Hiding in trees, hiding in cars
No one knows where they are
Being spied night and day
We/you're tired of hiding away
In court we/you always win
Won't stop them from seeking in our/your bin

Chorus

Verse 3
We/you make people dream
So they want to see behind the screen
Papers talk about what you do
'Cause the people want them to
All we/you're asking for
Is the right to sometimes close the door

Chorus

RETOUR
