The Influence of Calliope, Erato & Euterpe

[Connar Valdor]

I thought I saw you from a distance
I swore I'd found you once again
Touched on that feeling for an instant
Could not recall just where or when

Like a desert island so long ago
We had a love so hard to find
So full of life, so free and easy
Another place, another time

Take me back
I want to be there with you
It happened just like that
I slip into a dream of you
Take me back
Déjà vu

One soul, one mind
One light that shines
One love so hard to find
Mon dieu, take me back

Some call it fate, some superstition
Some call it luck, it's all the same
Just one of the mysteries of creation
Something you feel but can't explain

Take me back
I want to be there with you
It happens just like that
I've fallen deep into you


Send me a dream or two
Take me back
Oh, déjà vu

Somewhere down the [road]
After you've gone from sight
Our love will be the same
And, whispering your name,
I'll cling to you with all my might

Let me dream of you
But it's true
And wake me up when this is over
Love will be there when this is over and

Somewhere far beyond today
I will find a way to find you
And somehow thru the lonely nights
I will leave a light in the dark
Let it lead you to my heart

There's a love inside us
Deep down inside
That goes without saying
Don't say a word
But I'll tell you just the same
And that love will fan the flame
And that flame will warm the heart that's waiting

You are mine and I'll wait for you my love
You are mine it may take some time
Even if it takes a lifetime
Tell me you'll wait

And somewhere alone
I will be praying you home
I know that somewhere our love

Our love will lead me to your arms

Ce matin l'amour couvre
Mes épaules endormies
Tu me réveilles
Et je suis à toi, toi

Sous nos draps de neige
Nos deux corps se fondent
Tu me touches
Et je suis à toi

Ma peau se souviendra
De tous ces moments-là
À jamais, je suis à toi
Et mon âme se rendra
Sans le moindre combat
Toute entière, je suis à toi

Je parle à mes faiblesses
Et bouscule mes peurs
De toutes mes forces, je suis à toi

Si un jour ma mémoire
Désertait mon histoire
Jamais je n'oublierai que je suis à toi, toi

Ma peau se souviendra
De tous ces moments-là
À jamais, je suis à toi
Et mon âme se rendra
Sans le moindre combat
Toute entière, je suis à toi

Tout ceci n'a rien d'un rêve
C'est bien ma réalité
Comment imaginer
Qui partira en fumée?

Ma peau se souviendra
De tous ces moments-là
À jamais, je suis à toi
Et mon âme se rendra
Sans le moindre combat
Toute entière, je suis à toi

I wanna kiss your lips so soft you barely feel it
But deep enough you taste me for life
I wanna hold you so close that I know your every thought
As I'm looking deep into your eyes

I see you
I see you


I wanna make love to you all night long
Feel your body close to me
I wanna wrap myself up in your arms
And fall asleep to your heartbeat

I see you
I see you


Well I see you when I open up my eyes
Every moment in my life
I see you standing right
Right there by my side
I see you in all I do
Everything that we've been through
You're my picture-perfect view
Ooh when I see you

I want to wake up lying next to you forever
And end every day loving you
Walking through life hand in hand together
Doing all the things that lovers do

I see you
I see you

I see you when I open up my eyes
Every moment in my life
I see you standing right
Right there by my side
I see you in all I do
Everything that we've been through
You're my picture-perfect view
Ooh when I see you

I don't wanna live without you here with me
When I look around you're all I see

I see you when I open up my eyes
Every moment in my life
I see you standing right
Right there by my side
See you in all I do
Everything that we've been through
You're my picture-perfect view
Ooh when I see you
When I see you
When I see you
When I see you

Lately it seems, I've lost inspiration
It feels like it's miles away
I sleep through the day
And cry through the night time
I'm caught in an empty space

Takes effort to fight
I don't have the strength
I'm holding on to what's still left of me

When the life you had planned
Slowly slips through your hands
When it feels like you just slept through all the best years of your life
When you can't find your way
When each day ends the same
When you've lost the fight inside of you
Is there anything worth holding on to

It's hard to be strong
When weakness is stronger
I'm a prisoner in my own skin
I'm not good on my own
I need to be cared for
Someone to help these days begin

There are dreams I've let die
That I just pushed aside
I need to find out how to turn this dark back into light

When the warmth disappears
When it's been one of those years
When you're running from the truth because you're scared what you might find
When your heart's beyond repair
When you wake and no one's there
When your home consists of only you
Is there anything worth holding on to

Maybe tomorrow my heart will reawaken
And I can find what I've been searching for
But today I'm tired and I'm running out of strength
All I know is I can't live like this anymore

When you're so far from home
When you've lost all signs of hope
When you're searching for salvation
But it feels so far away
When the words have disappeared
And the melody's unclear
When there's nothing left inside of you
Is there anything worth holding on to

Cause I will still be holding on, to everything worth holding on to

Writer: Scott Allen

[Elessaria]

This feels like
One of those moments moving by so fast
You wanna do something just to make it last
You wanna do something to remember

Breathe it in
The feel of your body on my fingertips
The moonlight on fire and the clothes we're in
We gotta do something to remember
We don't wanna forget it

I wanna memorize you, wanna stay here forever
'Cause I-I-I, I-I-I
I take a picture in my mind so we're always together
'Cause I-I-I, I-I-I wanna remember

I wanna remember (ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

The night is clear
All of the stars out in the atmosphere
Wishing that they were you and me right here
They're showing off for us, I don't wanna forget it

I wanna memorize you, wanna stay here forever
'Cause I-I-I, I-I-I
I take a picture in my mind so we're always together
'Cause I-I-I, I-I-I wanna remember

I wanna remember (ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Oh, I don't know how
Every second gets better
I wanna be here now
I want to remember

Yeah, I wanna memorize you, wanna stay here forever
'Cause I-I-I, yeah, I-I-I
I take a picture in my mind so we're always together
'Cause I-I-I, I-I-I wanna remember

Oh, I wanna remember, yeah
(Ooh-ooh)

I want to remember
Oh, I wanna remember (I wanna remember)
I want to remember
I wanna remember

Put your [lantern] in the air and lead me back home
When it's all said and done I'll follow the echoes
I hear you night after night calling out my name
And I find myself running to meet you
I didn't want to escape
From the bricks that I laid down

You are the only one
The only one that sees me
Trusts me and believes me
You are the only one
The only one that knows me
And in the dark you show me
Yeah it's perfectly reckless
Damn, you leave me defenseless
So break in
Break in

You let me fall apart without letting go
Then you pick up the pieces and you make me whole
I didn't want to escape
From the bricks that I laid down

You are the only one
The only one that sees me
Trusts me and believes me
You are the only one
The only one that knows me
And in the dark you show me
Yeah it's perfectly reckless
Damn you leave me defenseless
So break in

And take everything I have
Until there is nothing left
Until it's just your voice in my head
And when the lights come on
You see me as I am
You're still inside me

You are the only one
The only one that sees me
Trusts me and believes me
You are the only one
The only one that knows me
And in the dark you show me
Yeah it's perfectly reckless
Damn you leave me defenseless
So break in
Break in

Put your [lantern] in the air and lead me back home

...by way of the stars...
... to your heart and into your arms ...

How pale is the sky that brings forth the rain
As the changing of seasons prepares me again
For the long bitter nights and the wild winter's day
My heart has grown cold my love stored away
My heart has grown cold my love stored away

I've been to the mountain left my tracks in the snow
Where souls have been lost and the walking wounded go
I've taken the pain no girl should endure
But faith can move mountains of that I am sure
Faith can move mountains of that I am sure

Just get me through December
A promise I'll remember
Get me through December
So I can start again

No divine purpose brings freedom from sin
And peace is a gift that must come from within
I've looked for the love that will bring me to rest
Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest
Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest

Get me through December
A promise I'll remember
Get me through December
So I can start again

Je ne sais pas faire
J'ai beau mentir tout me ramène à toi
Je ne sais pas faire quand t'es pas là
Je ne sais pas faire
J'ai beau sourire quand on parle de toi
Je ne sais pas faire quand t'es pas là
Je n'ai plus rien à perdre
Rien à gagner
Je n'ai plus de peine
Plus rien à pleurer
Rien c'est déjà trop
Tout me semble faux
Quand t'es pas là
Ça ne compte pas

Quand t'es pas là, toi
Là, où les mots font s'aimer les hommes
Si tu l'entends ça, je te pardonne
Quand t'es pas là, toi
Là, où les autres ont le cœur qui cogne
Si tu le veux, prends, je te le donne (je te le donne)

Je te le donne, donne, donne
Je te le donne, donne, donne
Je te le donne, donne, donne, je te le donne

J'ai le spleen de toi, de tes yeux
Sans un signe plus rien de nous deux
Je reste digne même si ça fait mal quand t'es pas là
Je sens ta main posée sur la mienne
Et le son de ta voix qui traîne
Je n'ai plus le goût de rien
Quand t'es pas là
Je n'ai plus rien à perdre
Rien à gagner
Je n'ai plus de peine
Plus rien à pleurer
Rien c'est déjà trop
Tout me semble faux
Quand t'es pas là
Ça ne compte pas

Quand t'es pas là, toi
Là, où les mots font s'aimer les hommes
Si tu l'entends ça, je te pardonne
Quand t'es pas là, toi
Là où les autres ont le cœur qui cogne
Si tu le veux, prends, je te le donne (je te le donne)

Je te le donne, donne, donne
Je te le donne, donne, donne
Je te le donne, donne, donne, je te le donne

Je ne sais pas faire
J'ai beau mentir, tout me ramène à toi
Je ne sais pas faire quand t'es pas là
Je ne sais pas faire
J'ai beau sourire quand on parle de toi
Je ne sais pas
Oh, quand t'es pas là, toi
Là, où les mots font s'aimer les hommes
Si tu l'entends ça, je te pardonne
Quand t'es pas là, toi
Là, où les autres ont le cœur qui cogne
Si tu le veux, prends, je te le donne (je te le donne)

Je te le donne, donne, donne
Je te le donne, donne, donne
Je te le donne, donne, donne, je te le donne

Quand t'es pas là

[Elessaria]

J'veux des problèmes
J'veux qu'tes galères deviennent les miennes
J'veux qu'tu m'balances au visage tes orages tes peines
Pour des nuits diluviennes

J'veux qu'on s'apprenne
J'veux partager tes joies, tes migraines
Ton corps me donne le vertige et tes mains me mènent
Où rien ne nous gêne

J'pourrais m'tatouer notre histoire sur le bras
Me mettre dans de beaux draps si t'es avec moi
C'est toi dans ce monde de fous
Je l'sais c'est tout

Et j'voudrais qu'ça dure longtemps
User ma peau sur la tienne
Un jour j'oublierai tout jusqu'à mon nom je saurai simplement
Que t'es là que t'es beau que t'es mien

J'voudrais qu'ça dure 100 ans
Que jamais la raison n'atteigne
Cet aveu cet envie de rêver tous les deux quand même
Jusqu'à ce qu'un jour nos deux yeux s'éteignent

Mon évidence, t'es mon sourire et ma carte chance
J'veux qu'on déconne qu'on décolle qu'on délire qu'on danse
Jusqu'au dernier silence

J'irai dans la rue si t'as besoin d'un toit
J'pourrais vivre nu pour qu't'aies un peu moins froid
C'est toi dans ce monde de fous
Je l'sais c'est tout

Et j'voudrais qu'ça dure longtemps
User ma peau sur la tienne
Un jour j'oublierai tout jusqu'à mon nom je saurai simplement
Que t'es là que t'es beau que t'es mien

LONGTEMPS -Amir

[Elessaria]

For all the times you stood by me,
Through right and wrong,
For being there to catch me when I'd fall,
I love you for your faith in me,
For all the joys you've given me,
But there's one thing makes me love you most of all.

You never gave up on me when I was giving love up on you,
Every time I thought this love can't work
You stayed to see it through.
You never gave up on me when I was making
Things rough on you
And you showed me what it really means to love somebody.

And though sometimes we might not see things eye to eye,
You've always met me more than half the way,
So for all the times I've let you down
And [although you pack] your things and [go]
I love you most of all because you stayed [true].

And you never gave up on me
When I was giving love up on you,
Never mattered who was right or wrong,
You stayed to see it through,
You never gave up on me,
When I was making things rough on you,
And you showed me what it really means to love.

There were times I just knew you,
Did not understand the moods,
All those long and sleepless nights I put us through,
But you stuck by me anyway,
Gave me love everyday
And now there's nothing,
In this world I wouldn't do for you.

Cause you never gave up on me,
When I was giving love up on you,
Every time I thought this love can't work,
You stayed to see it through,
You never gave up on me when,
I was making things rough on you,
And you showed me what it really means to love.

Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
That is how I know you go on

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go 'til we're gone

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

You're here, there's nothing I fear
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

...
What's it gonna matter when this moment's gone?
The world's spinning faster but we're just holding on

A sudden disaster could roll from sea
The earth could just open forget you and me
Life is what happens while we're making plans
You gave me your heart but it slipped through my hands

Did I ever stop to say?
Did I ever find a way?
To catch you when time flew
Did I ever make it show?
Did I ever let you know?
Nothing else matters but you
Nothing else matters but you

...
But nights turn to days then weeks become years
What are we left with when all this disappears?

Did I ever stop to say?
Did I ever find a way?
To catch you when time flew
Did I ever make it show?
Did I ever let you know?
Nothing else matters but you
Nothing else matters but you

'Cause time doesn't slip it runs through our hands
And just where it goes, I can't understand
Like an old photograph, in white and black
The hours have faded, but I just want them back, I just want them back

Did I ever stop to say?
Did I ever find a way?
To catch it when time flew
Did I ever make it show?
Did I ever let you know?
Nothing else matters but you...

Quand dans tes bras
Tu m'as serrée
Mon cœur s'est arrêté de battre

Tu ignorais
Dans quelle contrée
Tu t'en allais combattre

J'ai supplié:
«Laissez-le moi!»
Mais ils sont venus te chercher

Je n'ai que toi au monde
Pour me parler d'amour
Que toi qui me répondes
Quand j'appelle au secours

Je n'ai que toi au monde
Que toi à qui confier
Mes blessures profondes
Et mes rêves brisés

Je n'ai que toi au monde
Et si je te perdais
Je crois que j'en mourrais
Tu sais

Tu t'en allais
Porter la paix
À un peuple en détresse

Sans hésiter
Tu étais prêt
À donner ta jeunesse

Tu étais beau
Comme un héros
Sur ta dernière photo

Je n'ai que toi au monde
Pour me parler d'amour
Que toi qui me répondes
Quand j'appelle au secours

Je n'ai que toi au monde
Reviendras-tu vivant
De cette guerre immonde
Vivant mais comme avant

Je n'ai que toi au monde
Et si je te perdais
Je crois que j'en mourrais
Tu sais…

Je n'ai que toi au monde

Mais qu'est-ce que t'as fait
De tes deux bras
Qui ne pourront plus me serrer

Je n'ai que toi au monde
À qui parler d'amour
Que toi qui me répondes
Quand j'appelle au secours

Je n'ai que toi au monde
Et si je te perdais
Je crois que j'en mourrais
Tu sais…

Je n'ai que toi au monde
Que toi au monde
