Au Jardin Des Sans Pourquoi Lyrics

Retournons avant la guerre
Avant la fin
Avant le besoin de toutes ces prieres
Aucun mal
Aucun bien
Aucun mot croche
Ni mots malins que l'on dit quand on n'sait pas

Sous un ciel bleu, ciel sans nuage
Retournons la-bas
Sans orage
Retournons la-bas
Au jardin des sans pourquoi

Je t'ai vue te promener la-bas
Sous l'arc-en-ciel
Brillante comme une etincelle dans la nuit
Ou je t'ai vue aussi
Tombant du ciel
Comme une larme de st laurent, disparaissant
Dans un ciel blue, ciel sans nuage
Retournons la-bas
Sans orage
Retournons la-bas
Au jardin des sans pourquoi

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song begins with the desire to return before 'the war', before the end, and before the need of prayers, before there was an obvious distinction between good and evil and the need for prayers. I believe that this song is about something terrible happing in one’s life-whether it being a war or the loss of a loved one- and that person is desperate to return to times before there was the need to ask the terrible, and often times unanswerable, question: WHY? And so the singer sings of his desire to return “to the garden without whys.” It’s a terribly haunting and bittersweet song, one that bespeaks of loss and melancholy.
