It patters against the pavement Drop after drop, splash after splash Having realized its reason for repent It shakes the world, clash after clash
Allons-y danser dans le plui Ecoute a la orage Le sang est dans les nues Allons-y chanter avec courage
I'm wading at the waste Into a town with no name My mouth is filled with a bitter taste Leaving me with only the sky to blame
Allons-y danser dans le plui Ecoute a la orage Le sang est dans les nues Allons-y chanter avec courage
I hear the chanting of young girls and boys Singing clear above the rain It's a soothing sound, easy to enjoy And I start to remember that I am indeed still sane
Allons-y danser dans le plui Ecoute a la orage Le sang est dans les nues Allons-y chanter avec courage
Ah, there it is again The voices from the other side I raise my arms, wondering where they've been And why they've left me here to abide
Allons-y danser dans le plui Ecoute a la orage Le sang est dans les nues Allons-y chanter avec courage
I feel myself being lifted Rising slowly from the lake The voices say I have been gifted And that I'm giving in for my own sake
And so the angels sing
Let us dance in the rain Listen to the storm The blood is in the clouds Let us sing with courage
Sorry to those who don't know French. It's a lovely language, nice for poetry. The last stanza is a translate of the French ones. Title: The Blood in the Clouds
