Que toi au monde (Only you in the world)

 

When in your arms you hold me

My heart stopped beating

You didn't know exactly where

You were going to fight

I begged: "Leave him to me!"

But they came and took you

 

You're the only one I have in the world

To talk to about love

The only one to answer me

When I cry for help

 

You're the only one I have in the world

The only one I can confess to

My deepest wounds

And my broken dreams

 

You're the only one I have in the world

And if I ever lose you

I think it would kill me

You know

 

You were going away to bring peace

To people in distress

Without hesitation, you were willing

To give away your youth

You were as handsome as a hero

On your last picture

 

You're the only one I have in the world

To talk to about love

The only one to answer me

When I cry for help

 

You're the only one I have in the world

Will you come back alive

From that awful war

Alive just like before

 

You're the only one I have in the world

And if I ever lose you

I think it would kill me

You know

 

You're the only one I have in the world

 

But what happened to your two arms

They can't hold me anymore

 

You're the only one I have in the world

To talk to about love

The only one to answer me

When I cry for help

 

You're the only one I have in the world

And if I ever lose you

I think it would kill me

You know

 

I only have you in the world

Only you in the world

 

(Luc Plamondon / Davide Esposito)

Oooooooooooohhh !!! THank uuu sooooooooooooo much !!! I looove this song... I've heard the original recording by Davide Esposito and it's amazing what they did in Celine's version (at least what I heard on those 30 secs. of preview) And even thou I don't speak french, I could feel what the song was about so I felt in love with it the minute I heard it

 

Thank u sooo much again!!!

You're welcome

Actually the lyrics sung by Celine differ from the original lyrics sung by Davide Esposito.

 

Those are the lyrics of Esposito's version:

 

When I saw you come to me

My heart stopped beating

My picture on the newspaper

I really am a wanted criminal

In your arms, you hid me

But they came and caught me

You're the only one I have in the world

To talk to about love

The only one to answer me

When I cry for help

You're the only one I have in the world

The only one I can confess to

My deepest wounds

And my broken dreams

 

You're the only one I have in the world

And if I ever lose you

I think it would kill me

You know

 

On a beautiful morning

Facing the sun

I'll be walking along the river

You'll be waiting for me

Next to the shore

Where horses drink

We have dreams

Amazing dreams

Behind bars

 

You're the only one I have in the world

To talk to about love

The only one to answer me

When I cry for help

You're the only one I have in the world

The only one I can confess

What I had to go through

Before I found you

 

You're the only one I have in the world

And if I ever lose you

I think it would kill me

You know

 

You're the only one I have in the world

To talk to about love

The only one to answer me

When I cry for help

 

You're the only one I have in the world

And if I ever lose you

I think it would kill me

You know

Adorable lyrics!

I loved what I heard so far of this song from the documentary. Much more emotional than Davide's version.

[Celine Fan 77]

This is my favorite song so far from the album, along with Qui Peut Vivre Sans Amour?

A friend of mine who's actually not a huge Celine fan heard this song and fell deep in love with it!

[Bruno Dion]

It´s also one of my favorite songs of the album!

It´s also one of my favorite songs of the album!

 

Mine as well, and I love the illustration for it. Probably my favorite of all.

I cry every single time I hear this song. I absolutely love it, alongside with NMQP and Les jours comme ca...

Thanks a lot guys!! I personally like better the original arrangements that Esposito used! I think they work better with the melody
