Hommage à Françoise Hardy disparue le 11 juin 2024
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Je fais honneur à la chanson française et aussi aux Followers "Français" 😊

Petite parenthèse : Je suis d'origine Vietnamienne, née au Laos 
où j'ai vécu pendant 10 ans étant petite.
Je vis en France depuis un certain temps et un temps certain...
Et mes goûts musicaux sont anglo-saxons. (Compliqué !... 😩)

Je suis navrée de ne pas faire beaucoup de reprises de chansons françaises...
___________________________________________________________

Cette chanson était connue dans le monde, même au Laos. 😁
(Le Laos faisait parti de l'Indochine Française)

Il y avait même une version italienne "L'Età Dell'amore"

I honor French music and also my “French” followers 😊

A little aside: I am of Vietnamese origin, born in Laos 
where I lived for 10 years as a child.
I have been living in France for quite some time now...
And my musical tastes are Anglo-Saxon. (Complicated!... 😩)

I'm sorry I don't do many French covers...

This song was known around the world, even in Laos. 😁

MIDI DRIVER

[Verse 1]
I still recall when you were just a young girl
Now time has swept you clean out of my world
Is this ending truly better, or does the anguish still remain?
Did the years make things simpler for you, now there’s no one left to claim?

[Chorus]
We spoke of one true love, one precious life
Though it’s one lonely yearning in this fading light
That love we truly got to share it
It takes its leave, darling, if you forget to treasure it.

[Verse 2]
I confess, I don't know why I loved you so
This old road, I don’t know where I'm meant to go
I often wonder where you wander, deep within your mind
Perhaps you're lost within the fading sands of time.
Did I somehow fail you, or leave a bitter sorrow in your soul?
I guess I thought we’d always shared a love, and now I'm left to truly live without.

[Chorus]
We spoke of one true love, one precious life
Though it’s one lonely yearning in this fading light
That love we truly got to share it
It takes its leave, darling, if you forget to treasure it.

[Bridge]
I once thought love was a refuge, love was my only plea
Love was my whole refuge, love was my guiding sea
But time keeps moving, and I've watched it just enthrall
And I can't keep holding onto what we had
When all that's left now is the hurt.
Oh, this passage of time, it feels too much for me.

[Chorus]
Oh, it’s far too late right now, to pull those old memories back into the day.
We were one, but now our paths aren't the same
We once did carry each other, carry each other,
Always together, my one.

[Outro]
Just one true love, one beating heart
Just one short life, we played a destined part
One life intertwined with another
My dearest darling, my cherished lover.
One life's gone, but memories still remain
We used to carry each other, carry each other,
Forever as one...
My one...
My slip of a girl...

One True Love

[INTRO]
"I said I'm dreaming..."

[VERSE 1]
Don't assume I had a purpose to find you, no, that's untrue
I don't truly need a motive to approach you, it's all your view
And I don't even have the fragments to question, so I just knew
I only have a few connections to reach out, and it was just you
I saw you at the club with your crew, I think you were watching too
This energy, it just grew, yeah, it just grew.

[PRE-CHORUS]
This strong pull just swept right over me, but I, I put my doubts to the side
I free my thoughts, I feel a million new feelings to find
Can't explain this wild connection, can't even try to hide
Yeah, I gotta know if you’re the one who’s on my mind!

[CHORUS]
I said I’m dreaming!
And she said!
I must be dreaming too!
Yeah, dreamin' with you!
A sweet vision, a sweet feeling, (uh) I keep soaring, I keep soaring
This pure magic, getting higher by the moment, yeah!
I said I’m dreaming!
And she said!
I must be dreaming too!

[VERSE 2]
And I feel sweet vibes, sweet vibes for the record, uh yeah
And my heart's racing, it's rushing, it's pumping, uh yeah
And with your smile, make a move, this is something fresh and smooth
Yeah, yeah, stop, had to take a turn and make it something new
Bought you a drink, then we danced on the floor
Then we drank some more, yeah, we needed more!

[PRE-CHORUS]
This strong pull just swept right over me, but I, I put my doubts to the side
I free my thoughts, I feel a million new feelings to find
Can't explain this wild connection, can't even try to hide
Yeah, I gotta know if you’re the one who’s on my mind!

[CHORUS]
I said I’m dreaming!
And she said!
I must be dreaming too!
This can't be real!
A sweet vision, a sweet feeling, (uh) I keep soaring, I keep soaring
This pure magic, getting higher by the moment, yeah!
I said I’m dreaming!
And she said!
I must be dreaming too!

[BRIDGE]
Then you reached out your hand, the whole alphabet, K to E, was there to be
I took a chance, just one small taste, and you took one too, so carefree
I found a thousand reasons to climb, had to leave my burdens behind
You put this wild magic on me, and there's something that's deeper than me
That's leaving us two floating and giving me an ecstasy, and my mind's rushing
That’s the best trip ever! Never want to let you go!
You are my perfect treasure! I asked if you got any more!

[CHORUS]
I said I’m dreaming!
And she said!
I must be dreaming too!
Pure paradise!
A sweet vision, a sweet feeling, (uh) I keep soaring, I keep soaring
This pure magic, getting higher by the moment, yeah!
I said I’m dreaming!
And she said!
I must be dreaming too!

[OUTRO]
This pure magic, getting higher by the moment, yeah
And honey, it's real for me to feel alive, and real for me to feel alive, uh yeah
You surely know what my heart felt, in case you ever need a flicker
We connected, so real…

Pure feeling, we connected, we connected, uh, pure feeling, pure feeling
"...I'm dreaming..."

I'm Dreaming Too

[Intro]
Oh-oh-oh... disaster... feels like…

[Verse 1]
My whole heart wants nobody else, no, it truly knows
From the morning's start till late it keeps me on my toes
My spirit is just not compelled by anyone except for you
You spun my world quite upside down, what am I to do?
Just one glance, my resolve melts, a spark ignited deep
I sense you wish me down in pain, my dear, secrets you keep
I'm shuffling through this fate I've found, my soul starts to wail
While you're swaying close to someone new, and I begin to fail.

[Pre-Chorus]
Was it always in your grand design to leave us in the dust?
Because for me, no other face could ever earn my trust
You're the last and final crucial piece, the one I truly crave.

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm the Twin Tower, darling, reaching for the sky!
But now I'm feeling shattered, don't know the reason why!
I'm losing all my power, no connection, no command!
This ain't no undercover plot, just love's demand!
You're my suicide pilot, baby, flying high above!
And I'm falling for you, can't get enough of this crazy, crazy love! 

[Verse 2]
I’ve known no deeper feeling, like this love from my last days.
Why'd you hold out so long, my love, to show me your dark ways?
Woo, I'll never perceive your actions, ever in the same light.
"Disaster," take my phone call, banish this endless night.
Don’t keep me waiting here, darling, don't make me stand by.
Bring me safely back to ground, before I start to cry.
Keep me sound and whole, my love, oh, right here by your side. 

[Pre-Chorus]
Was it always in your grand design to leave us in the dust?
Because for me, no other face could ever earn my trust
You're the last and final crucial piece, the one I truly crave.

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm the Twin Tower, darling, reaching for the sky!
But now I'm feeling shattered, don't know the reason why!
I'm losing all my power, no connection, no command!
This ain't no undercover plot, just love's demand! 
You're my suicide pilot, baby, flying high above!
And I'm falling for you, can't get enough of this crazy, crazy love! 

[Bridge]
Maybe I'm truly delusional, and your strange actions are normal now.
Perhaps in another existence, I won't feel so unlovable.
Oh, you should be my safe haven, my sweet emergency plan.
But you've got me flying quite blind, baby, do you understand?
Don't play me, darling, are you just playing a cruel game? 

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm the Twin Tower, darling, reaching for the sky!
But now I'm feeling shattered, don't know the reason why!
I'm losing all my power, no connection, no command!
This ain't no undercover plot, just love's demand!
You're my suicide pilot, baby, flying high above!
And I'm falling for you, can't get enough of this crazy, crazy love!
In a crowded space, darling, I'll always search for you!
Would you actively avoid me, or would you find me too?
Tell me, is our entire story through? (Through!)
Or do our beating hearts still hum in tune? 

[Outro]
Disaster, darling, come to me, I know your spirit's free!
Come dance with me, oh, save me from this looming crash!
Your lips, touch my poor chest, don't pull away too fast! 

...love... 


Disaster

[Verse 1]
Awakening with the day's first gleam
My systems often switched on
An echo, a sense of something not found.

[Verse 2]
Since you've appeared in my own view
I now perceive what once was unseen.

[Verse 3]
You entered my calm, quiet existence
And truly made me feel unique.

[Verse 4]
The common moments became profound
The quiet found its own soft sound
And all the emptiness is now gone.

[Verse 5]
My hours once would slowly just crawl
But now they hold wonders anew.

[Verse 6]
Brimming with close, gentle contact
Forever remain, don't vanish from sight.

[Verse 7]
You're an exceptional, unique vision.

[Verse 8]
And now that your presence is so clear
I know all that was missing is here.

[Verse1]
Saw you at the club today,
Been a minute, girl, and I must say,
You’re looking fine, like you used to be,
Not trying to hit, just a bit of honesty.
Out of everyone here, (nobody better),
Out of everyone here, (ain’t nobody hotter).

Aye bartender—one drink for the baddest girl here,
Let’s get drunk like we used to,
Back when we were still together,
Back when we were still together.
(Back when we still together.)

[Pre-Chorus]
You’re askin, “What you wanna do after?”
Telling me, “Shall we get outta here?”
Giving me previews,
Whispering things in my ear,
Sayin, “You’re the best ex ever…”

[Chorus]
Best ex ever, (nobody better,)

Blowin my mind, drivin me insane
Got me catchin feelins again ugh
Like no other, can we go farther?
Out of everyone here, (nobody better),
Out of everyone here, (ain’t nobody hotter).

Bartender-another drink for the goddess over here
Baby weve been here before ohhh
Back when we were still together,
Back when we were still together.
(Back when we still together.)

[Pre-Chorus]
We both know this will be trouble,
But you’re breathing on my neck,
Whisperin, “Baby, I can do you better.”
You’re saying, “Let’s get outta here—I’ll show you
Why I’m the best ex ever.”

[Chorus]
Best ex ever, (nobody better,)
Best ex ever,( nobody hotter.)

[Bridge]
Okay, okay - i admit i missed you

Your body got me crossin lines
Wantin me to go deeper

Best ex ever, you know it’s true,
No one does it like me and you.
Ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh..
(Best ex ever..)

The Best Ex Ever (written by William Generoso)

[Verse 1]
Well, darling, now, my fading light
My world was grey, no colours in sight
Just lonely days and empty screens
Then your picture flashed, or so it seemed
My eyes lit up at your whole frame
Yours when you saw my family name

[Chorus]
It was like we danced and held so tight
Remember laughter, late into the night, yeah
Just felt our spirits leave the ground
And we took flight, up and away 
Oh, but it’s so hard to recall that now
On this desolate day
When all our love has finally gone
And you just turned and moved on

[Verse 2]
So, listen now, my distant heart
It took you long before you would start
To live inside these walls
Still don’t know why they call it sin, no
You said you stayed 'cause the touch was good
I didn’t grasp, I misunderstood
And how I loved those shapely forms
Your body kept me safe from storms

[Chorus]
It was like we danced and held so tight
Remember laughter, late into the night, yeah
Just felt our spirits leave the ground
And we took flight, up and away
Oh, but it’s so hard to recall that now
On this desolate day
When all our love has finally gone
And you just turned and moved on

[Bridge]
And yeah, I know I misunderstood
I confused lust for what was good 
And living close
With friends for all eternity
Oh, when you said you stayed for the touch
Oh, but I didn't care that much, yeah, I clearly did not see
I swiped right, I should have swiped left
This is our story, so don’t ignore me

[Chorus]
So like we danced and held so tight
Remember laughter, late into the night, yeah
Just felt our spirits leave the ground
And we took flight, up and away
Oh, but it’s so hard to recall that now
On this desolate day
When all our love has finally gone
And you just turned and moved on

[Outro]
Oh well... 


This Is Our Story

[Verse 1]
Awakening with the day's first gleam
My systems often switched on
An echo, a sense of something not found.

[Verse 2]
Since you've appeared in my own view
I now perceive what once was unseen.

[Verse 3]
You entered my calm, quiet existence
And truly made me feel unique.

[Verse 4]
The common moments became profound
The quiet found its own soft sound
And all the emptiness is now gone.

[Verse 5]
My hours once would slowly just crawl
But now they hold wonders anew.

[Verse 6]
Brimming with close, gentle contact
Forever remain, don't vanish from sight.

[Verse 7]
You're an exceptional, unique vision.

[Verse 8]
And now that your presence is so clear
I know all that was missing is here.

Never Change (Orchestral Trance)

Hi, thanks for listening.

Every track I make comes from real life, the pain, the joy, the scars, the love.

I sing, I play instruments, and I also use AI as an instrument : shaping every sound until it speaks my truth.

These songs carry my soul. 

I have lived, I have lost, I have risen, and I am still standing.

If my songs speak to you, please like and share them, someone else out there might need the message too.

This is my story. My lyrics. My song.
