Song | I've Seen That Face Before (Libertango) |
Artist | Grace Jones |
Album | Private Life: The Compass Point Years |
Strange, I've seen that face before, | |
Seen him hanging 'round my door, | |
Like a hawk stealing for the prey, | |
Like the night waiting for the day, | |
Strange, he shadows me back home, | |
Footsteps echo on the stones, | |
Rainy nights, on Hausmann Boulevard, | |
Parisian youths, drifting from the bars, | |
Tu cherches quoi, rencontrer la mort? | |
Tu te prends pour qui | |
Toi aussi tu detestes la vie | |
Dance in bars and restaurants, | |
Home with anyone who wants, | |
Strange he's standing there alone, | |
Staring eyes chill me to the bone. | |
Dans sa chambre, Joel et sa valise, | |
Un regard sur ses fringues, | |
Sur les murs, des photos, | |
Sans regret, sans mélo, | |
La porte est claquée, Joel est barré. |

Un regard sur ses fringues, | |
Sur les murs, des photos, | |
Sans regret, sans mé lo, | |
La porte est claqué e, Joel est barré. |
