Carla Bruni et Sarkozy uniront leur destinée dans quelques semaines. On n’entend parler que d’eux. À la radio de Radio-Canada, un peu avant Noël, nous rappelais après chaque pause cette nouvelle-qui-était-sur-toute-les-lèvres. Ce fût une journée consacré à l’album francophone de Carla Bruni (aucune chanson de son album en anglais). Pourtant les paroles de Promises Like Pie Crust devrait susciter l’attention du nouveau marié…
Promises Like Pie Crust, Carla Bruni, album: No Promises
Promise me no promises,
So will I not promise you:
Keep we both our liberties,
Never false and never true:
Let us hold the die uncast,
Free to come as free to go:
For I cannot know your past,
And of mine what can you know?You, so warm, may once have been
Warmer towards another one:
I, so cold, may once have seen
Sunlight, once have felt the sun:
Who shall show us if it was
Thus indeed in time of old?
Fades the image from the glass,
And the fortune is not told.If you promised, you might grieve
For lost liberty again:
If I promised, I believe
I should fret to break the chain.
Let us be the friends we were,
Nothing more but nothing less:
Many thrive on frugal fare
Who would perish of excess.Promise me no promises,
So will I not promise you:
Keep we both our liberties,
Never false and never true:
Let us hold the die uncast,
Free to come as free to go:
For I cannot know your past,
And of mine what can you know?If you promised, you might grieve
For lost liberty again:
If I promised, I believe
I should fret to break the chain.
Let us be the friends we were,
Nothing more but nothing less:
Many thrive on frugal fare
Who would perish of excess.Promises like pie-crust
Promises like pie-crust
Maintenant trentenaire et toujours aussi amoureuse de Chéri et de sa vie dans la Métropole. La famille, les amis, la cuisine, la bière, les livres, les films prennent place dans ma vie et j’ai plein d’autres passions à partager.
