I'm back in DC

Sigh.

I've updated the photo montage I post earlier this morning - it had a few glitches, like cutting off the first photo, which was my favorite. Anyway, I wanted to post the update in any case as I wasn't sure if folks would have missed it this morning, it did get posted a wee early.

Anyway, I'm back. And feeling terribly not good about it.



Quelqu'un M'a Dit Carla Bruni lyrics
Artist: Carla Bruni
Album: Quelqu'un M'a Dit
Year: 2002
Title: Quelqu'un M'a Dit

On me dit que nos vies ne valent pas grand chose,
Elles passent en un instant comme fanent les roses.
On me dit que le temps qui glisse est un salaud que de nos chagrins il s'en fait des manteaux pourtant quelqu'un m'a dit...

Refrain
Que tu m'aimais encore,
C'est quelqu'un qui m'a dit que tu m'aimais encore.
Serais ce possible alors ?

On me dit que le destin se moque bien de nous
Qu'il ne nous donne rien et qu'il nous promet tout
Parais qu'le bonheur est à portée de main,
Alors on tend la main et on se retrouve fou
Pourtant quelqu'un m'a dit ...

Refrain

Mais qui est ce qui m'a dit que toujours tu m'aimais?
Je ne me souviens plus c'était tard dans la nuit,
J'entend encore la voix, mais je ne vois plus les traits
"Il vous aime, c'est secret, lui dites pas que j'vous l'ai dit"
Tu vois quelqu'un m'a dit...

Que tu m'aimais encore, me l'a t'on vraiment dit...
Que tu m'aimais encore, serais ce possible alors ?

On me dit que nos vies ne valent pas grand chose,
Elles passent en un instant comme fanent les roses
On me dit que le temps qui glisse est un salaud
Que de nos tristesses il s'en fait des manteaux,
Pourtant quelqu'un m'a dit que...

Refrain

The English version of Carla Bruni's song "Quelqu'un M'a Dit":

Someone said to me by Carla Bruni

Someone said to me that our lives are pretty worthless
They pass in an instant just like roses wilt
Someone said to me that time that slips away is a bastard
Who takes our sorrows to make overcoats for himself
And yet someone said to me…

That you still loved me
Someone said to me that you still loved me
Could it be true ?

Someone said to me that fate makes fun of us
That it gives us nothing and promises us everything
It seems like happiness is within our grasp
So we reach out to grab it and find that we’ve gone mad
And yet someone said to me…

That you still loved me
Someone said to me that you still loved me
Could it be true ?

But who was it who said to me that you still loved me ?
I don’t remember any more
It was late at night
I can still hear the voice, but I can’t make out his face
“He loves you, it’s a secret, don’t tell him that I told you so”
You see, someone said to me…

That you still loved me
Someone really said it to me
That you still loved me
Could it be true ?

Someone said to me that our lives are pretty worthless
They pass in an instant just like roses wilt
Someone said to me that time that slips away is a bastard
Who takes our sorrows to make overcoats for himself
And yet someone said to me…

That you still loved me
Someone said to me that you still loved me
Could it be true?
