Disgusted with this world now
Under the lamp, one last dream
I hear your voice, despite all of that
And your words "respect the other"**
Cause in all the worlds I've come upon
I never saw another one
That sparkled like a diamond in the sun
The exact room is pitiless
Heaven falls at my feet
Yet
We know, we know
Your voice says:
Never forget
Guided by a star
Never forget
I promise where you are
One point in the universe
It's a love that's everywhere
Never forget
It's me...
One point in the universe
It's a love that's everywhere
Never forget
No, no, no
Underground there is silence
My memory that comes back late
I think of you
Don’t you think twice
It’s lost, but now I finally know
And all these signs that you send
That bowl me over every time
With déjà vu we’ll rearrange the stars
And even on the silent sea
Your constellation carries me
Alone, you know,
But the horizon says:
Never forget
Guided by a star
Never forget
I promise where you are
One point in the universe
It's a love that's everywhere
Never forget
It's me...
One point in the universe
It's a love that's everywhere
Never forget
No, no, no
We feel it in our bones
We feel it in our bones
We feel it in our bones
Never forget, it's me
You know
Don't forget
Guided by a star
Never forget
I promise where you are
One point in the universe
It's a love that's everywhere
Never forget
It's me...
One point in the universe
It's a love that's everywhere
Never forget
No, no, no

**"The other" or "l'autre" usually operates as a neoligism in Farmer's songs and has a conceptual meaning. Farmer explained this to an extent in an interview in 1991: "Other implies many others. It could be this thing that has no physical envelope, that is above you and will help you, sometimes guide you, sometimes impede you too. It could be another person. I tried to find a word that could evoke many things. It could also be schizophrenia, why not? "
There are some issues with the original French and English (LP) lyrics. I did my best to translate based on what I believe is the correct original text.
