I've Seen That Face Before (Libertango)

Grace Jones

I've Seen That Face Before (Libertango)

Strange, I’ve seen that face before
Seen him hanging ’round my door
Like a hawk stealing for the prey
Like the night waiting for the day

Strange, he shadows me back home
Footsteps echo on the stones
Rainy nights on hausmann boulevard
Parisian music drifting from the bars

Tu cherches quoi
A rencontrer la mort
Tu te prends pour qui
Toi aussi tu détestes la vie

Dance in bars and restaurants
Home with anyone who wants
Strange, he’s standing there alone
Staring eyes chill me to the bone

Dans sa chambre, joel et sa valise
Un regard sur ses fringues
Sur les murs, des photos, sans regret, sans mélo
La porte est claquée, joel est barré

I've Seen That Face Before (Libertango)

Strange, I’ve seen that face before
Seen him hanging ’round my door
Like a hawk stealing for the prey
Like the night waiting for the day

Strange, he shadows me back home
Footsteps echo on the stones
Rainy nights on hausmann boulevard
Parisian music drifting from the bars

What are you looking for
To meet death
Who do you think you are
You also hate life

Dance in bars and restaurants
Home with anyone who wants
Strange, he’s standing there alone
Staring eyes chill me to the bone

In his room, Joel and his suitcase
A look at his clothes
On the walls, photos, without regret, without melodrama
The door is slammed, Joel is locked out
