La vie en rose translation

Eyes that make mine lower 

Des yeux qui font baisser les miens 


A laugh that is lost on his mouth 
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche 

Here is the portrait without retouching 
Voilà le portrait sans retouches 

From the man I belong to
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens
When he takes me in his arms 
Quand il me prend dans ses bras 

He whispers to me 
Il me parle tout bas 

I see life in pink
Je vois la vie en rose
He tell me love words 
Il me dit des mots d'amour 

Everyday words 
Des mots de tous les jours 

And it does something to me
Et ça me fait quelque chose
He has entered in my heart 
Il est entré dans mon cœur 

A slice of happiness 
Une part de bonheur 

That I know the reason
Dont je connais la cause
It's him for me, me for him in life 
C'est lui pour moi, moi pour lui dans la vie 

He told me, swore it for life
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie
And as soon as I see him 
Et dès que je l'aperçois 

So I feel Inside me 
Alors je sens en moi 

My heart beating
Mon cœur qui bat
Nights of endless love 
Des nuits d'amour à plus finir 

A great happiness that takes its place 
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place 

Trouble, sorrow fades away 
Des ennuis, des chagrins s'effacent 

Happy, happy to die
Heureux, heureux à en mourir
When he takes me in his arms 
Quand il me prend dans ses bras 

He whispers to me 
Il me parle tout bas 

I see life in pink
Je vois la vie en rose
He tell me love words 
Il me dit des mots d'amour 

Everyday words 
Des mots de tous les jours 

And it does something to me
Et ça me fait quelque chose
He has entered in my heart 
Il est entré dans mon cœur 

A slice of happiness 
Une part de bonheur 

That I know the reason
Dont je connais la cause
It's you for me, me for you in life 
C'est toi pour moi, moi pour toi dans la vie 

He told me, swore it for life
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie
And as soon as I see you 
Et dès que je t'aperçois 

So I feel inside me 
Alors je sens dans moi 

My heart beating 
Mon cœur qui bat 

La la, la la, la la 
La la, la la, la la 

La la, la la, ah la 
La la, la la, ah la 

La la la la
La la la la



I'm listening to my old Apple Music songs, through bluetooth on my stereo. There was one time when I could buy a few 99 cent songs once in a while. 

My son is building a Saturn V rocket lego set his brother's godfather gave us.

My sons don't live with me and a relative got Covid, so they were quarantining for 2 weeks. I can see him facetime and whatnot, but it's great to see him live. My daughter's mother just moved out, and when she's working I get my daughter. So playing the old songs is somehow comforting nostalgia to me. Bjork, They Might Be Giants, Lenny Kravitz "On The Run", Regina Spektor, Junior Kimbrough, Martin, Medeski and Wood, Grant Green, Jay-Z, Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd, Song for Sharon by Joni Mitchell, Heather Headley "He is".

Democracy or democrazy?

Admittedly the choice between corrupt democrats and corrupt republicans isn't the political choice I want. I'd rather vote my way towards fairness, elimination of poverty, anti-trust laws that fight the consolidation of corporations (you read about grocery stores lately?), education, infrastructure. What you do get is a vote for democrats that vote to end rail strikes ( source ) because they can't carve out of the profits a sick leave, versus reality denying, Russian bought, obstructionists who might lower taxes, and want smaller government. The Ron Swanson's of the world who hate government and work in government. I've been running into people who believe the corrupt choices aren't worth even making. Reasons not to pay attention.I've thought that a few times in my life, but I don't think that now.  There are real choices about health care for women, and even just an attitude towards democracy. It's hard to fight past the rhetoric, and understand eve...

Consent

You couldn't have a better title to a memoir in these times. You can read about Humbert Humbert, and other male narratives, but the female narrative of the statutory rape is fulfilled by this book. I feel slightly ill while reading this book. What she goes through is off, and it's hard to put a finger on it besides  Hebephilia . All the collaborating details from her mother, to her doctors, to her father. Vanessa Springora will be remembered for other things, she is a director and a publisher. I'm not sure if  Gabriel Matzneff will be remembered for other things. At least not on this side of the pond. I do have a kind of jealousy for the appreciation of the intellectual life in France.  Matzneff cites Lewis Carroll , and others as having the appreciation for youth. I read his Wikipedia page. That led to other questions about photographers who take pictures of their children. That led me down a creepy path. As much as Springora tries to not make it sexy, I wonder ho...
