Once in a life We lived in a sanctuary A song could get us free Slept behind the altar Only the singer saw Now is it gone, years on Times we took alone Stealing an hour, buying a night It's hard on the telephone Love outside the law Je' tant rêve du toi -- Is it gone, this year Is the song still in your ear Or were we only high Just the wine Just the wine was it Only the time? When we're old How will are story be told Windswept smoke used by time Waiting for the bus Will that be us? Do you recall my friend We never thought we'd ever fall When the salesman came to call Selling our soul to buy Sometimes it ain't no deal at all Je' tant rêve du toi Dream Dream too much
