Ananas by James Taylor

I've recently been converted to a James Taylor. He's music is just smooth and relaxing, yet still full of emotions. This is most definitely my favorite track from the Hourglass album. He mentions that this is an attempt to write a bi-lingual song. I love how the bass drives this song as well and is very well complimented by backing vocals


Je t'aime encore
Means I love you still
C'est pour toujours
Means I always will

Tu me manquais trop
Means I missed you too much
Je fais ce qu'il faut
Means I'll do what I must

Me voici Ă  ta fenĂȘtre
Tous tes gens me voient ici
Here I am at your window darling
For all your people to see me


Ananas laisse moi une fois
Laisse moi te voir
Let me one more time, ananas
Ananas, I'm lopin' along hopin' you're home
Open up and let me on in

Maybe I rise and maybe I fall
Maybe you lie underneath it all
I ain't got nothin' but for what you see
Even my own heart don't belong to me

Got your river running in my blood
Got your fire burning in my heart
You got me falling like a shooting star
Just like some tragic work of art

Ananas laisse moi une fois
Laisse moi te voir
Let me one more time, ananas
Ananas, I'm lopin' along hopin' you're home
Open up and let me on in

Here I am at your window baby
For all your people to see
Howling like a dog on the moonlight
Won't you have pity on me

Ananas laisse moi une fois
Laisse moi te voir
Let me one more time, ananas
Ananas, I'm lopin' along hopin' you're home
Open up and let me on in
