Lili, by Aaron

                               

 

     The song "U turn (Lili)" , interpreted by AaRON, is an extract from the album Artificial Animals Ridings On Neverland sold in 2007.

     This song figures in the original soundtrack of the movie "Je vais bien, ne t'en fais pas" , directed by Philippe LIORET, starring Mélanie LAURENT and Kad MERAD and based on the novel of  Olivier ADAM. This movie was released on September 6, 2006.

     Coming back from holidays, Lili, a young woman who is 19 years old, discovers that her twin brother, Loïc, left home after a violent quarrel with his father. Lili did not hear from him and becomes anorexic. When she receives finally a letter from her brother, Lili goes to find him.

     In this movie, the song "U turn" was recorded to Lili by her brother before he left home.

     For his first dramatic character, Kad MEARD received the Cesar of the best second part.

 

     This song is essentially an invitation to change way, to recover oneself.

     The title "U turn" means a "half-turn" because the "U" symbolizes a 180° turning. The lyrics "it is not the wings that make the angel" mean we mustn't judge a person by his/her appearance. The lyrics "take another walk out of your fade world" is a recall to the real world whereas the lyrics "there is still a place for people like us" introduce an idea of an ideal place, a utopia where people like them could be accepted, could be happy. The lyrics "please put all the drugs out of your hand", "I will be your guide" and "we will find an answer" show that the author wants to help "Lili". The lyrics "the same blood runs in every hand" could mean that nobody is innocent.

 

 

U Turn (Lili)

 

Lili, take another walk out of your fake world
Please put all the drugs out of your hand
You'll see that you can breath without not back up
Some much stuff you got to understand

Refrain  

For every step in any walk
Any town of any thaught
I'll be your guide

 For every street of any scene
Any place you've never been
I'll be your guide


Lili, you know there's still a place for people like us
The same blood runs in every hand
You see it's not the wings that makes the angel
Just have to move the bats out of your head

Refrain

Lili, easy as a kiss we'll find an answer
Put all your fears back in the shade
Don't become a ghost without no colour
Cause you're the best paint life ever made

Refrain

 

 

Now, look at my translation...

Demi tour (Lili)

Lili fais un autre pas en dehors de ton monde illusoire

Je t'en prie, pose toutes les drogues que tu as dans les mains

Tu verras que tu peux respirer sans rechuter

Tant de choses que tu dois comprendre

 

 Refrain

A chaque pas dans chacune de tes marches

Dans chaque ville de chacun de tes rêves

Je serai ton guide

 Sur chaque route de n'importe quel lieu

Dans tous les endroits où tu n'es jamais allée

Je serai ton guide

 

Lili tu sais qu'il reste une place pour les gens comme nous

Le même sang coule dans chaque main

Tu vois que ce ne sont pas les ailes qui font l'ange

Tu dois seulement faire sortir les démons de ta tête

 

Refrain

 

Lili aussi simple qu'un baiser nous trouverons une réponse

Laisse toutes tes peurs dans l'ombre derrière toi

Ne deviens pas un fantôme incolore

Car tu es la plus belle couleur que la vie ait jamais créée

 

Refrain

 

 

Great job, eh?
