Jacques Brel

Jacques Brel (French pronunciation: ​[ʒak bʁɛl]; 8 April 1929 – 9 October 1978) was a Belgian singer-songwriter who composed and performed literate, thoughtful, and theatrical songs that generated a large, devoted following in France initially, and later throughout the world. He was widely considered a master of the modern chanson. Although he recorded most of his songs in French, he became a major influence on English-speaking songwriters and performers such as David Bowie, Leonard Cohen, Marc Almond and Rod McKuen.

Tous les chemins qui mènent à Rome
Portent les amours des amants déçus
Tous les chemins qui mènent à Rome
Portent les mensonges des anges déchus

Amour du matin
Frais comme la rose
Amour qu’on étreint
En étreignant le jour
Tu étais si jolie, les lèvres mi-closes
Me penchant vers toi, je t’ai dit toujours

Mais tous les chemins qui mènent à Rome
Portent les amours des amants déçus
Mais tous les chemins qui mènent à Rome
Portent les mensonges des anges déchus

Amour de midi
Brûlant de clarté
Amour que l’on vole
Au vol de la vie
Le vent qui jalousait le chant de nos baisers
Nous disait d’être sages et nous en avons ri

Mais tous les chemins qui mènent à Rome
Portent les amours des amants déçus
Mais tous les chemins qui mènent à Rome
Portent les mensonges des anges déchus

Amour de la nuit
Brasier sans lumière
Amour qui espère
L’espoir qu’on attend
Tu avais dans les yeux un bouquet de prières
Je t’ai dit demain, j’ai pensé, je mens

Car tous les chemins qui mènent à Rome
Portent les amours de mon cœur déçu
Car tous les chemins qui mènent à Rome
N’ont pu faire de moi qu’un ange déchu
