Vivre pour le meilleur [English translation]

People seeking a light in the dead of night

People running after and from love

Arms raising for a God they can't see

Me, I have your flesh against my flesh, that I believe in.

Living for the better

Wanting one another to give everything to each other

The richer for not keeping anything

but love

Men with nothing but the illusion of awaiting a sign

Women mourning their childrend while remaining dignified1

You make me stronger with every passing lawless and godless day

and when our bodies make love to one another, I know why2

Living for the better

Wanting one another to give everything to each other

The richer for not keeping anything

but love

Yes, living to live free,

loving everything you can love

Again and always wanting nothing

but love, but love

Living for the better

Wanting one another to give everything to each other

The richer for not keeping anything

but love, but love

Yes, living to live free,

loving everything you can love

Again and always wanting nothing

but love, but love

1. I don't really see what these childless dignified women are doing here, but that's Johnny for you :)2. I suppose that means "I know why our bodies make love to one another", but I wonder if you need dignified childless women and dupes of a meaningless religion to understand the urge for reproduction!
