A chill-out track lyrics in English


Procyon

Recommended Posts

I was asked to illustrate a DVD which will feature this song - a wonderful song btw - and I need to write down the lyrics. I have tried my best, but there's two or more sentences I couldn't understand clearly. Can anyone help me? The question marks are where I could not understand.

Here's the video:

 

Collette Biron-Reid - Love Is The Answer

 

Here's what I understood:

 

 

I had a dream last night:

The world turned out all the lights

We were left in darkness

There was nothing to remind us

Of our life that we once had

Things we thought we wanted

And all our faith was dead

Then I woke up and remembered

Love that's the answer

Nothing else can play with the dark (?)

Only love can feed the hunger in our hears

That's the answer,

the only answer

I had a dream this morning but

with a smile upon my face

I saw the God inside us we'd create a better place

we celebrate our differences

there would be no room for hate

and all the souls before us could live their own lives remain (?)

Love, that's the answer

nothing else can play the dark

only love can feed the hunger

in our hearts

that's the answer

the only answer

Love, that's the answer

I'm pretty sure the second line you're unsure about is and all the souls before us to live their lives in vain. I think the first one is nothing else can play the part, but I'm not certain.

Thanks Rotwang. You are right! Now it all makes sense. I spend hours thinking, trying to figure out what could replace "remain", what a relief! BTW, it's "...can feed the hunger in our hearts" and not in our "hears" as I wrote. Feel free to correct any other mistake I made.

 

Edit: "all our faith was dead", is what she sings? It seems a little odd to me.

IMO:

 

  • ...life that we once had should be ...life that we once led
  • ...dream this morning but with a smile upon my face should be dream this morning put a smile upon my face
  • ...God inside us we'd create a better place should be God inside us would create a better place (not too sure about that one)
  • next two lines: we should be we'd, there would should be there'd

I think all our faith was dead is correct.
