One of my faves by Paul Weller in his Style Council Days. Paul was actually told by a girl at a concert that this song "saved her life".




Down In The Seine


Catch me Im falling so fast and I cant seem to find
All the reasons I had when the purpose was mine
Now I stumble so fast rolling into the night
Kiss me quick before I land and am broken in two
Keep me on the right track, hold my dreams in tact too -
I get lost in this place - I get lost, yes its true

Quand on na plus rien en soi - quand on na plus de refuge -
Quand on ne peut plus fuir - quand on ne sais on courrir
Noir comme la nuit - oui, noir comme mon ame -
Noir comme les eaux - dans lesquels je sombre

Help me Im sinking so fast into waters unplanned
That I once held onto but have got out of hand
Now the things that I loved are the things I cant stand

Squeeze me slow before I come to that part of the ground
Its a million miles up and a million miles down
I get lost in between and I wait to be found

Quand on na plus rien en soi - quand on na plus de refuge -
Quand on ne peut plus fuir - quand on ne sais ou courrir -
Noir comme la nuit - oui noir comme mon ame -
Noir comme les eaux - dans lesquels je sombre

And in the waters I sink and in the waters I drink
Until I rise to the top which in truth is not
To make you feel your alright, to make you feel theres no fight -
