The Time To Live
Let us take the time to live
To be free, my love
With no plans and no routine
We can re-imagine our life
Come to me, I’m here
All that’s missing is you
Nothing is impossible, everything is allowed
Come over here, listen to the murmured words
On the other side of the month of May
They make us the promise
That everything will fade one day
Come to me, I’m here
All that’s missing is you
Nothing is impossible, everything is allowed
Let us take the time to live
To be free, my love
With no plans and no routine
We can re-imagine our life
---Georges Moustaki
