Because of a law thereÀ cause' d'une loi là-bas
You had to leaveTu as dû quitter
The one who loved youCelui qui t'aimait

Dan, a boy with blue between his eyelashesDan un garcon qui avait du bleu entre les cils
Under the great baobabs at universitySous les grands baobabs à l'université
Now you understand, it's easyMaintenant tu comprends c'est facile
All those whose hearts are in exileTous ceux qui ont l'coeur en exil
