Sarah elle est belle mais seulement quand elle pleure
Quand elle voit sa mère au fond d'son verre et ce quelle que soit l'heure
J'ai vu tellement de feux éteints dans les yeux de Sarah
Et la peur des lendemains, bien cachée dans sa voix

Alors pourquoi moi?

On peut la voir sourire parfois depuis que son père dort
Il était bien trop triste et bien trop fort mais depuis qu'il est mort
Sarah sait qu'il existe sous les cerisiers blancs
L'espoir d'un rêve égoïste de vivre seulement

Alors pourquoi moi?
Alors pourquoi moi?

J'ai eu la vie facile mais je n'servais à rien
Puis j'ai partagé sa peine, aujourd'hui je suis quelqu'un
Sarah reine des femmes, devant elle je m'incline
Car je peux voir ce matin un ange dans ma cuisine

Oh, Sarah elle est belle mais seulement quand elle est nue
Le corps tendu par ses grands airs, mes doigts collés à sa nuque
Oh, Sarah reine des femmes, devant elle je m'incline
Car je peux voir ce matin un ange, un ange, allez

    General CommentThe translation is as follows:


    Sarah, she is beautiful but only when she cries
    When she sees her mother at the bottom of her glass
    And, whatever the hour
    I saw so many lights in the eyes of Sarah
    And the fear of tomorrow, well hidden in her voice
    So why me?

    You can see her smile at times since her father is sleeping
    It was too sad and too strong, but since he died
    Sarah knows that it exists in the white cherry
    The hope of a egotistic dream to live only

    So why me?
    So why me?

    I had an easy life but nothing I haven't done
    Then I shared her pain, today I am somebody
    Sarah, Queen of women, I bow before her
    Because I can see an angel this morning in my kitchen

    Sarah, she is beautiful but only when she is naked
    The body hung by her airs, my fingers stuck to her neck
    Sarah, Queen of women, I bow before her
    Because I can see an angel this morning ...
    An angel

    General CommentI think it goes something like this.. but I could be wrong (very wrong)...


    Sarah he is beautiful but only when he cries
    When he sees her mother at the bottom of her glass
    And this whatever the hour I saw so much the fires extinguished in the eyes of Sarah
    And fear of the following days, hidden well in his voice

    Then why me?

    One can see him smiling sometimes since his father sleeps
    He was well too sad and well too extremely but since he is dead
    Sarah knows that there exists under the white cherry trees
    The hope of an egoistic dream of only living

    Then why me?
    Then why me?

    I had the easy life but I was not used for nothing
    Then I shared his sorrow, today I am somebody
    Sarah queen of the women, in front of it I lift myself
    Because I can see this morning an angel in my kitchen

    Sarah he is beautiful but only when it is naked
    The body tended by his large airs my fingers stuck to his nape of the neck
    Sarah queen of the women, in front of it I lift myself
    Because I can see this morning an angel...

    An Angel

    General CommentI"ve heard this song through a friend and I cried before I knew what the lyrics meant. Now that I have a rough idea what they mean, I can understand why I cried. Lol.

    General CommentBen's voice gives me goosebumps everytime I listen to this beautiful song. The music video is awesome as well. Kinda bummed that Kyo are taking a break since Empyr are not as great just yet. I'm hoping that their lyrics improve as they become more fluent in English. This is my fave Kyo song.

    My Opinionwoah woah woah! Anyone seen the movie Sarah's Key (or read the book)? This song ... if you listen to it right, it sounds like it could be about her ...

    Eerie ...


    (I know it wasn't intended to be about her, it's just a weird connection ...)

    General CommentSarah, she is beautiful but only when she cries
    When she sees her mother deep down in her glass
    And that, whatever the hour
    I saw so many extinguished lights in the eyes of Sarah
    And the fear of tomorrow, well hidden in her voice

    So why me?

    You can see her smile sometimes since her father is sleeping
    He was too sad and too strong, but since he died
    Sarah knows that it exists
    Under the white cherry trees
    The hope of an egoistic dream
    To live alone is the world

    So why me?
    So why me?

    Oh, I had an easy life but I was useless
    Then I shared her pain, today I am somebody
    Sarah, Queen of women, I bow in front of her
    Cause I can see this morning, an angel in my kitchen

    Oh Sarah, she is beautiful but only when she is naked
    The body tightened by her big airs
    My fingers stuck on her neck
    Sarah, Queen of women, I bow in front of her
    Cause I can see this morning
    An angel, an angel ...
