Something More Lyrics: Johanna Saint-Pierre Music: Johanna Saint-Pierre & Rémi Amblard It’s been a long time You don’t even see me anymore Why did you before Feels like you’ve gone away Maybe it’s the end We don’t have to pretend What I want from you Is something more I’m not even sure If the love you give Is worth what you take If it’s all about the money It’s time for us to break Do you even wanna stay? I work so hard And I know we deserve A brand new start? We could stay together Just listen to your heart We can change forever What I want from you Is something more I need a man, a man who loves me If you want me in your life, it’s time to decide This is not a game Boy, don’t play with me

Dans Le Ciel 04:48
Dans Le Ciel Lyrics: Johanna Saint-Pierre Music: Johanna Saint-Pierre & Rémi Amblard Les anges t’accompagneront Tous les musiciens te suivront L’éternité t’appelle Et les musiciens jouent et pleurent Dans le ciel, dans le ciel Dans le ciel Tu es mon soleil Les chœurs chanteront pour toi Et les clochent sonneront Les danseurs tourbillonnent Tu fais ton entrée sur la scène Maintenant et quand bien même Doucement et sans peine Et ta chevelure de reine Tu t’élances dans les airs Dans le ciel, dans le ciel Dans le ciel Tu es mon soleil

What For 03:52
What For Lyrics: Johanna Saint-Pierre Music: Johanna Saint-Pierre & Rémi Amblard His destiny, brothers and sisters A letter from the Governor, mother and father What they said I didn’t understand I was sleeping in my dreamland What for (bis) He will leave, leave in October Good times are over, for the family All the government says Is they need a soldier And our fear, we better get over What for (bis) Our baby, gone to war What have they done to us? Our baby, has to fight What have they done to us? All day long, my mama was crying Tears were falling, while we were praying All through the night But our hope was gone When we watched him leaving at dawn What for (bis)

Freedom From Politicians Lyrics: Johanna Saint-Pierre & Valorie Miller Music: Johanna Saint-Pierre & Rémi Amblard We are a new generation From every country, every city We owning every feeling And fearlessly we are shining What we want is freedom Free Freedom from politicians Peace Something new is gonna happen And in this rhythm we are clapping Let yourself be a dreamer Every day is getting sweeter What we want is freedom Free Freedom from politicians Peace We know That love will always grow No one can take our power We don’t need to grieve We need to believe. What we want is freedom Free Freedom from politicians Peace

Lazy Girl 03:19
Lazy Girl Lyrics: Johanna Saint-Pierre Music: Johanna Saint-Pierre & Rémi Amblard I’m waiting with a glass of brandy Here, where the sofa is so cozy I’m not ashamed (Val removed it’s my lifestyle so we loose the rhyme. What you think ?) I ‘m not going to deny I am a woman Who left the hustle far behind Do you think I’m a lazy girl? I’m a lazy girl (bis) Collecting rubies is my hobby When I tell stories, I do it slowly Here by the pool, but don’t take me for a fool I take it easy And it makes them want to kill me Do you think that I’m a lazy girl? I’m a lazy girl (bis) (They scream) “Move your ass, let us pass!” But I’m still in the same place Don’t wake me from this dream? Until it’s time to dance Do you think that I’m a lazy girl? I’m a lazy girl (bis)

Jeremy 03:46
Jeremy Lyrics: Johanna Saint-Pierre Music: Johanna Saint-Pierre & Rémi Amblard Let me tell you his story His name was Jeremy When he was 24 He passed near my door He died suddenly I was so sorry Alone, I cried sadly The madness came slowly My sweet love You’re not here anymore Why are you so far? Floating with the stars Oh oh oh Jeremy Maybe he’s still here Moving like a spirit I’m so getting old He will stay forever young Sometimes he comes to me Dancing in my dreams He laughs and he smiles And looks into my eyes My sweet love You’re not here anymore Why are you so far? Floating with the stars Oh oh oh Jeremy
