A stranger in white
In a car
Going somewhere
Going far
How it must feel to go racing wherever you please
Flying as free as a bird with its tail in the breeze
Even the fish in the sea must be longing to fly
Catching a glimpse of a stranger in white racing by
Oh, gods, oh, gods
Are you there?
What can I do to get you to look down and give in?
Oh, gods, oh, gods
Hear my prayer!
I'm here in the field
With my feet in the ground
And my fate in the air
Waiting for life to begin
Mama's contented
And Tonton accepts what he gets
Happy for tea in their cups
And no holes in their nets
Happy to have what they have
And to stay where they are
They never even look up at the sound of a car
A stranger racing down the beach
Racing to places I was meant to reach
My stranger, one day you'll arrive
Your car will stop
And in I'll hop
Abd off we'll drive
We'll drive!
Oh, gods, oh, gods
Please, be there
Don't you remember your little Ti Moune from the tree?
Wake up, look down
Hear my prayer!
Don't single me out
And then forget me
Oh, gods, oh, gods
Let me fly!
Send me to places where no one before me has been
You spared my life
Show me why!
You get me to rise like a fish to the bait
Then tell me to wait
Well, I'm waiting
Waiting for life to begin
Waiting for life to begin!
