Lyrics
And it crept up on us, in the way that it does
– Epi li te rale sou nou, nan fason ke li fè
And the moment disappeared
– E moman an disparèt
In the desert of us, all our tears turned to dust
– Nan dezè a nan nou, tout dlo nan je nou tounen pousyè
Now the roses don’t grow here
– Kounye a roz yo pa grandi isit la
I guess that love does what it wants
– Mwen devine ke renmen fè sa li vle
And that’s just too bad for us
– E sa se jis twò move pou nou
Was it all just sleight of hand?
– Èske tout bagay sa yo te jis yon ti jan nan men?
Another trick that fate has played on us again
– Yon lòt trik ke sò te jwe sou nou ankò
Two heads in the sand
– De tèt nan sab la
I hear you talking but I just can’t understand
– Mwen tande w ap pale men mwen jis pa ka konprann
Caught in no man’s land between the wires
– Kapt nan peyi pa gen moun ant fil yo
Comin’ under friendly fire
– Ap vini anba dife zanmitay
Can’t go forward, can’t go back again
– Pa ka ale pi devan, pa ka ale tounen ankò
And it crept up on us, in the way that it does
– Epi li te rale sou nou, nan fason ke li fè
And the moment disappeared
– E moman an disparèt
In the desert of us, all our tears turned to dust
– Nan dezè a nan nou, tout dlo nan je nou tounen pousyè
Now the roses don’t grow here
– Kounye a roz yo pa grandi isit la
I guess that love does what it wants
– Mwen devine ke renmen fè sa li vle
And that’s just too bad for us
– E sa se jis twò move pou nou
Flying high with both eyes closed
– Vole wo ak tou de je fèmen
Almost touched the sun, I guess we got too close
– Prèske manyen solèy la, mwen devine nou te twò pre
Now I’m dancing on my own
– Kounye a mwen ap danse pou kont mwen
But the music’s not as good when you’re alone
– Men mizik la pa bon lè w poukont ou
Caught in no man’s land between the wires
– Kapt nan peyi pa gen moun ant fil yo
Comin’ under friendly fire
– Ap vini anba dife zanmitay
Can’t go forward, can’t go back again
– Pa ka ale pi devan, pa ka ale tounen ankò
And it crept up on us, in the way that it does
– Epi li te rale sou nou, nan fason ke li fè
And the moment disappeared
– E moman an disparèt
In the desert of us, all our tears turned to dust
– Nan dezè a nan nou, tout dlo nan je nou tounen pousyè
Now the roses don’t grow here
– Kounye a roz yo pa grandi isit la
I guess that love does what it wants
– Mwen devine ke renmen fè sa li vle
And that’s just too bad for us
– E sa se jis twò move pou nou
We wanna talk but we don’t wanna listen
– Nou vle pale men nou pa vle koute
We play pretend but we both know it’s missin’
– Nou jwe pretann men nou tou de konnen li manke
If love burns too bright, it burns out in a minute
– Si lanmou boule twò klere, li boule nan yon minit
At least that’s what I tell myself
– Omwen se sa mwen di tèt mwen
We wanna talk but we don’t wanna listen
– Nou vle pale men nou pa vle koute
We play pretend but we both know it’s missin’
– Nou jwe pretann men nou tou de konnen li manke
If love burns too bright, it burns out in a minute
– Si lanmou boule twò klere, li boule nan yon minit
At least that’s what I tell myself
– Omwen se sa mwen di tèt mwen
And it crept up on us, in the way that it does
– Epi li te rale sou nou, nan fason ke li fè
And the moment disappeared
– E moman an disparèt
In the desert of us, all our tears turned to dust
– Nan dezè a nan nou, tout dlo nan je nou tounen pousyè
Now the roses don’t grow here
– Kounye a roz yo pa grandi isit la
I guess that love does what it wants
– Mwen devine ke renmen fè sa li vle
And that’s just too bad for us
– E sa se jis twò move pou nou
