(Roch Voisine/James Campbell/Francis Cabrel)
I was nothing before
Still I stand here today
As a keeper of dreams
'Till the night fades away
Je l'aime a mourir
You can tell me again
All the reasons to leave
But with a touch of her hand
She can make me believe
That I belong here
Yes, I belong here
Je l'aime a mourir
Not a moment ago
I was only a man
But she fills me with more
In the way no one can
Je l'aime a mourir
When she catches my eye
All the light from the sun
Seems to wither and die
Next to all she's become
I am without fear
And I would die here
Je l'aime a mourir
It isn't fair, you know
Why should I care?
There are a million just like me
It isn't fair, you know
Why should she care?
And live to be
The world to me
She is all I've become
She is all that I need
And she makes me feel one
With the air that I breathe
Je l'aime a mourir
Though sometimes we're apart
Though sometimes I'm astray
It's the beat of her heart
In the music I play
That keeps me sincere
Through all these long years
Je l'aime a mourir
I could cry for her eyes
Like a child in the cold
And I will live by her side
'Till the day I am old
Je l'aime a mourir
When you find someone strong
Someone inside your heart
And when she takes you beyond
"Until death do us part"
You'll know what I mean
Why I would die here
Je l'aime a mourir
It isn't fair, you know
Why should I care?
There are a million just like me
It isn't fair, you know
Why should she care?
And live to be
The world to me
I was nothing before
Still I stand here today
As a keeper of dreams
'Till the night fades away
Je l'aime a mourir
You can tell me again
All the reasons to leave
But with a touch of her hand
She can make me believe
That I belong here
And I will die here
Je l'aime a mourir
