Lyrics
LES GENS TRISTES Seuls dans les rues jamais reconnus D'ou sont-ils venus ? Le frère de quelqu'un la soeur de quelqu'un Des amours défunts Tous ces gens tristes ça me brise le coeur Tous ces gens tristes privés de bonheurs On ferme les yeux sur ces malheureux Comme on est peureux Si j'avais un voeux à faire Ce serait paix sur la terre Plus de misère pour tous les humains Mais je rêve en vain solo Tous ces gens tristes ça me brise le coeur Tous ces gens tristes privés de bonheurs S'ils pouvaient revrire qu'ils puissent réussir Retrouver leurs sourires Comment les aider à retrouver Une vie ensoleillée Tous ces gens tristes ça me brise le coeur Tous ces gens tristes privés de bonheurs Comment les aider à retrouver ? Une vie ensoleillée Mais on ferme les yeux Sur ces malheureux Words & Music : Michel Goudreau ©Copyright 2008 by Michel Goudreau, SOCAN ENGLISH TRANSLATION THE SAD PEOPLE Alone on the streets No one knows their names Where do they come from ? Someone's brother, someone's sister That have lost love All these sad people It breaks my heart All these sad people Deprived of happiness We close eyes to these unfortunate ones How cowardly we are If I only had a wish It would be for peace on earth No more hard times for all humans But I'm dreaming in vain solo All these sad people It breaks my heart All these sad people Deprived of happiness If they could live again and find a way To regain their smile How can we help them to find once again A new sunny day All these sad people It breaks my heart All these sad people Deprived of happiness How can we help them to find once again A new sunny day Be we just close our eyes On these unfortunate ones
