Tommy Davidson(original) |
Tommy, depuis son accident |
A perdu la vue |
Pourtant il voit bien mieux qu’avant |
Il sait regarder en écoutant |
Chaque instant |
Puisqu’il a tout le temps |
De contempler le temps |
De printemps en printemps |
Il ne lit plus |
Il ne peut plus faire de peinture |
Pourtant il comprend mieux qu’avant |
Car il sait que ce que ses yeux |
Ne voient pas |
A encore plus d'éclat |
Dans l’esprit et dans le cœur |
Que les plus belles couleurs |
Chante-moi, Tommy Davidson |
Les choses que tu as vues |
Des soirs d’hiver et des nuits d'été |
Que je n’ai pas connus |
Et l’eau pure de tes océans |
Le rouge de ton ciel |
Raconte-moi tes aquarelles |
Tommy Davidson |
Tommy jouait de la guitare |
Depuis très longtemps |
Maintenant il joue bien mieux qu’avant |
Il sait chanter |
Tout ce que vous, vous voyez |
Et de ses doigts clairvoyants |
Dessiner de la musique |
Profonde et mélancolique |
Tommy adore sa guitare |
Et tous les deux |
Ils s’entendent |
Encore bien mieux qu’avant |
Il se réveille dans le soleil |
Qu’il ne voit pas |
Mais il a au fond des yeux |
Toutes les beautés de Dieu |
Et Tommy est presque heureux |
Chante-moi, Tommy Davidson |
Les choses que tu entends |
Les enfants qui rient |
Et ceux qui pleurent |
Et tous les violons du vent |
La chanson des rues et des oiseaux |
Et celle des pauvres gens |
Et dis-moi comment tu me vois |
Tommy Davidson |
Tommy, depuis son accident |
A perdu la vue |
Pourtant il voit bien mieux qu’avant |
Il sait regarder en écoutant |
Chaque instant |
Puisqu’il a tout le temps |
De contempler le temps |
De printemps en printemps |
(translation) |
Tommy, since his accident |
Lost his sight |
Yet he sees much better than before |
He knows how to look while listening |
Every moment |
Since he has all the time |
To contemplate time |
From spring to spring |
He doesn't read anymore |
He can no longer paint |
Yet he understands better than before |
'Cause he knows what his eyes |
don't see |
Has even more shine |
In mind and in heart |
Than the most beautiful colors |
Sing me, Tommy Davidson |
The things you saw |
Winter evenings and summer nights |
That I didn't know |
And the pure water of your oceans |
The red of your sky |
Tell me about your watercolors |
Tommy Davidson |
Tommy played guitar |
For a long time |
Now he plays much better than before |
He can sing |
All you see |
And his clairvoyant fingers |
Draw music |
Deep and melancholy |
Tommy loves his guitar |
And both |
They get along |
Even better than before |
He wakes up in the sun |
That he doesn't see |
But he has deep in his eyes |
All the Beauties of God |
And Tommy is almost happy |
Sing me, Tommy Davidson |
The things you hear |
children who laugh |
And those who cry |
And all the violins of the wind |
The Song of the Streets and the Birds |
And that of the poor people |
And tell me how you see me |
Tommy Davidson |
Tommy, since his accident |
Lost his sight |
Yet he sees much better than before |
He knows how to look while listening |
Every moment |
Since he has all the time |
To contemplate time |
From spring to spring |
