A white horse Lyrics by Gilles Servat

Sur les quais de Dublin

1996

A white horse in the night
That appears in the lights
Wandering on the roads of Clifden
Like a soul in the darkness
Un fantôme de jeunesse
Looking for the shade of a maiden
My life is on the road
Always leaving my friends
In mornings of sweet sorrow
But it's more than friends
That tomorrow I leave
It's my heart that I leave
C'est mon cœur que je laisse
It's my heart that I leave
In the heart of Connemara

I thought I could be free
Like a bird on a tree
But I tied bonds around me
Bonds of love are delight
When you're close to the light
They're so hard away from your star
Les départs c'est ma vie
Toujours je laisse mes amis
Dans des aubes de doux chagrin
C'est plus que des amis
Que je quitterai demain
C'est mon cœur que je laisse
It's my heart that I leave
C'est mon cœur que je laisse
Dans le cœur du Connemara

Raindrops fall on the glass
But this shadow will pass
Tears and smiles beneath a rainbow
Et c'est comme un visage
Surgi du fond des âges
Retrouvé pour un amour très beau
My life is on the road
Always leaving my friends
In mornings of sweet sorrow
But it's more than friends
That tomorrow I leave
It's my heart that I leave
C'est mon cœur que je laisse
It's my heart that I leave
In the heart of Connemara

And I feel like a white
Horse lost in the night
Wandering on the roads of Clifden
Like a soul in the darkness
Un fantôme de jeunesse
Looking for the shade of a maiden
