Lyrics of The Only One - Yan Wagner, Etienne Daho

The Only One (original)

Les paysages défilent
Combien de ports, combien de villes
Dans ce train qui me balance
Au tempo sacré de ma chance
Fugitive et mercenaire
Mais mon exil est volontaire
Si mon existence a vrillé
La Lune n’a pas fini de briller
I wanna be the only one
Et nul ne m’entendra crier
Wanna be the only one
Wanna be the only one
I wanna be the only one
Et nul ne m’entendra prier
Les paysages se délitent
Combien de ports, combien de villes
Et dans ce train supersonique
Au tempo sacré arythmique
L’oiseau de nuit poursuit sa route
Efface ses traces et ses doutes
Si mon existence a vrillé
Le Soleil n’a pas fini de briller
I wanna be the only one
Et nul ne m’entendra crier
Wanna be the only one
Wanna be the only one
I wanna be the only one
Et nul ne m’entendra prier
I wanna be the only one
Et nul ne m’entendra crier
Wanna be the only one
Wanna be the only one
I wanna be the only one
Et nul ne m’entendra prier
Wanna be the only one

(translation)

The landscapes pass
How many ports, how many cities
On this rocking train
To the sacred tempo of my luck
Fugitive and Mercenary
But my exile is voluntary
If my existence twisted
The Moon hasn't finished shining
I wanna be the only one
And no one will hear me scream
Wanna be the only one
Wanna be the only one
I wanna be the only one
And no one will hear me pray
The landscapes crumble
How many ports, how many cities
And in this supersonic train
To the arrhythmic sacred tempo
The night owl goes on
Erase his traces and his doubts
If my existence twisted
The Sun hasn't finished shining
I wanna be the only one
And no one will hear me scream
Wanna be the only one
Wanna be the only one
I wanna be the only one
And no one will hear me pray
I wanna be the only one
And no one will hear me scream
Wanna be the only one
Wanna be the only one
I wanna be the only one
And no one will hear me pray
Wanna be the only one
