Close the door, shut the world away
Ferme la porte, éloigne le monde
All the fight's gone from this wounded heart
Tout le combat s'est enfui de ce cœur blessé
Across the floor, dreams and shadows play
À travers le sol, les rêves et les ombres dansent
Like wind blown refugees
Comme des réfugiés emportés par le vent
Call the man who deals in love beyond repair
Appelle l'homme qui traite l'amour au-delà de la réparation
He can heal the world of hearts in need of care
Il peut guérir le monde des cœurs qui ont besoin de soin
Shine a light ahead when the next step isn't clear
Éclaire le chemin lorsque le prochain pas n'est pas clair
Call the man, he's needed here
Appelle l'homme, il est nécessaire ici
I close my eyes, I remember when
Je ferme les yeux, je me souviens quand
Your sweet love filled this empty room
Ton doux amour remplissait cette pièce vide
The tears I cry won't bring it back again
Unless the lonely star should fall
Call the man who deals in love beyond repair
He can heal the world of hearts in need of care
Shine a light ahead when the next step isn't clear
Call the man, he's needed here
Needed in the chaos and confusion
From the plains to city hall
Needed where the proud who walk the wire
Are set to fall
Call the man who deals in once upon a time
Maybe he can mend this broken heart of mine
Shine a light ahead, now the future isn't clear
It isn't clear
Call the man, he's needed here
Call the man, he's needed here
He's needed here
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Right here right now
Yeah, yeah, yeah
He's needed here, right here
Call the man
Yeah, yeah, yeah
He's needed here
Right here
He's needed here, right here right now, yeah
