Duet with france gall
Written by michel berger and bernie taupin
Released as a french b-side in february, 1981

We're no handy silver lining
We're no crime to make the headline news
If it's a matter for decision
You and I can be the ones to choose

Je te donne mes espoirs caches
Je te donne me incertitudes
Je te donne mes plus grands secrets
La vie c'est deja si compli

I give you my hidden hopes

I give you my uncertainties

I give you my deepest secrets

Live is already so complicated

Donner pour donner, tout donner
C'est la seule faзon d'aimer
Donner pour donner
C'est la seule faзon de vivre
C'est la seule faзon d'aimer

Giving for the sake of giving, giving it all

It is the only way to love

Giving for the sake of giving

It is the only way to live

It is the only way to love

Pas la peine de vivre enferme
C'est pas la peine
Pas la peine de rester couche
Non c'est pas la peine
Je te donne sans rien demander
La vie, c'est deja si compli

It is not worth being locked up

It is not worth staying in bed

I give you without asking anything

Life is already so complicated

Je te donne mes sourires moqueurs
Je te donne ma force, ma douceur
Je te donne mes secrets fragiles
La vie, c'est deja si difficile

I give you my mocking smiles

I give you my strength, my sweetness

I give you my precious secrets

Life is hard enough
