Spinning Aimlessly

He had dark hair, a tanned complexion
Shy eyes, well-worn hands
He cut stone,1 a workman's son
He was proud of it, but why are you laughing?
No, don't judge him
You who don't know
The intoxicating effects2, and hard work
Your happiness is fake, you trade your values
 
Him, he's my whole world, and much more than that
I alone cry out his name when the feelings of helplessness come
And then everything crumbles when he's no longer here
I'd so love to tell him but I don't dare
Him who makes me
 
Spin aimlessly, aimlessly
Spin aimlessly, aimlessly
Spin aimlessly, he makes me spin
Aimlessly, aimlessly, aimlessly
Spin, spin aimlessly
Spin aimlessly, he makes me spin . . .
 
Who can tell me what's happened?
Since he's left, I haven't been able to recover
It’s nothing but a memory, a tear from the past
Stuck in my eyes, which no longer wants to go away
Oh no, don't laugh you who don't know
Dizzy spells and grief
They're shallow, they know nothing of the heart
 
Him, he was my whole world and much more than that
I hope to see him again here, not in the hereafter
Help me, everything's crumbling since3 he's no longer here
Do you know, my beautiful love, my handsome soldier
That you make me
 
Spin aimlessly, aimlessly
Spin aimlessly, aimlessly
Spin aimlessly, you make me spin
Aimlessly, aimlessly, aimlessly
Spin, spin aimlessly
Spin aimlessly, he makes me spin
 
He makes me spin aimlessly, spin aimlessly
Spin aimlessly, he makes me spin aimlessly
Spin aimlessly, spin aimlessly
Spin aimlessly, he makes me spin
Spin aimlessly

Done, thank you.

French lyrics actually reads (in the booklet): "J'espère le revoir là-bas dans l'eau delà" (I hope to see him once again there in the watter.)

Thank you for your comment. The booklet is mistaken. If you watch the video, she clearly says: J'espère le revoir là, pas dans l'au-delà.
