Out There

[00:09.83] Safe behind these windows and these parapets of stone

[00:13.82] Gazing at the people down below me

[00:17.83] All my life I watch them as I hide up here alone

[00:22.07] Hungry for the histories they show me

[00:26.33] All my life I memorize their faces

[00:30.32] Knowing them as they will never know me

[00:34.33] All my life I wonder how it feels to pass a day

[00:38.07] Not above them

[00:42.07] But part of them

[00:47.57] And out there

[00:49.57] Living in the sun

[00:53.70] Give me one day out there

[00:57.95] All I ask is one

[01:01.95] To hold forever

[01:04.45] Out there

[01:06.71] Where they all live unaware

[01:11.96] What I'd give

[01:15.95] What I'd dare

[01:19.96] Just to live one day out there

[01:32.95] Out there among the millers and the weavers and their wives

[01:36.46] Through the roofs and gables I can see them

[01:40.20] Ev'ry day they shout and scold and go about their lives

[01:43.20] Heedless of the gift it is to be them

[01:47.20] If I was in their skin

[01:50.70] I'd treasure ev'ry instant

[01:56.20] Out there

[01:58.20] Strolling by the Seine

[02:01.95] Taste a morning out there

[02:05.70] Like ordinary men

[02:08.70] Who freely walk about there

[02:11.20] Just one day and then

[02:16.45] I swear I'll be content

[02:18.45] With my share

[02:22.20] Won't resent

[02:25.96] Won't despair

[02:27.45] Old and bent

[02:29.45] I won't care

[02:31.30] I'll have spent

[02:35.31] One day

[02:37.56] Out there
