Lapli Si Tòl

Rain on the Roof

Lapli Si Tòl

Lying in this little houseAn kouché an ti kaz-la
Rain on the roof sings of loveLapli si tòl ka chanté lanmou
Baby, why aren’t you here?Doudou pouki ou pa la?
My heart is tightKè an mwen séré
I want to cryMwen anvi pléré

On the bridge of my lifeAsi pon lavi an mwen
Love comes and goes, doesn’t stayLanmou pasé, pa rété
It was beautiful like a rainbowI té bèl kon arkansièl
But a color wasn’t meant for meMè p'on koulè pa té fèt pou mwen

God, you up in heavenBondyé, vou ki an sièl-la
Divide the length of my painDivizè longè lapenn an mwen
'Cause the rain that’s fallingPas lapli ki déwo la
Makes the water overflow in my heartFé débòdé dlo a kè an mwen

Your kiss, baby, when the rain fallsKarès a'w doudou lè lapli ka tonbé
Colors the rainbow of my lifeKoloré arkansièl lavi an mwen
I’m so happyAn tèlman kontan
Happy as a larkKontan kon pipirit
Sitting on a branch to talk about loveKi pozé si branch pou palé dè lanmou

What time is it?Ali ki tan?
Bang bang!Bang bang!
Hold me tight against your heartSéré mwen fò asi kè a'w
I want to stay like this all the timeAn vlé rété kon sa tou moman

A little kiss isn’t hereOn ti dousin pa si
A little kiss isn’t thereOn ti dousin pa la
Honey syrup in our bodiesSiwo miyèl an kò an nou
Hold me tight against your heartSéré mwen fò asi kè a'w
I want to stay like this all the timeAn vlé rété kon sa tou moman

No, baby, don’t cryNon, doudou, pa pléré
You’re the sunshine of my lifeOu sé solèy lavi an mwen
Hold me tight against your heartSéré mwen fò asi kè a'w
I want to stay like this all the timeAn vlé rété kon sa tou moman

Don’t cryPa pléré
Hold me tight against your heartSéré mwen fò asi kè a'w
I want to stay like this all the timeAn vlé rété kon sa tou moman

AhAh

Look at another, baby (It’s you that I see)Gadé on lòt, doudou (Sé vou ki mwen ka vwè)
Listen to another, baby (It’s you that I hear)Kouté on lòt, doudou (Sé vou ki mwen ka tann)
A little rain on the roofOn ti lapli si tòl
It’s time to make loveSé tan pou fè lanmou
A kiss in this little houseDousin an ti kaz-la
Honey in our bodiesSiwo an kò an nou

When the rain falls and all morning longLè lapli tonbé é toulématen
I wake up alone in this little houseAn lévé tousèl an ti kaz-la
Can’t understand what’s happening to mePa ka konprann sa ka rivé mwen
Feels like I’m being torn apartKa santi ké mwen ka déchiré
