[Verse] Dark alleyways in the night we wander City lights flicker no peace to ponder Broken bottles shattered dreams on the ground Searching for solace ain't nothing found [Verse 2] Cigarette smoke curls shadows in the air Voices whisper secrets life's unfair Strumming chords out of tune violon weeps Heartache and memories wrapped in sheets [Chorus] Joyeux Anniversaire Philippe oh so loud Raise a glass in the midst of the crowd Guitar's wailin' violon's cryin' too Celebrate your soul through and through [Verse 3] Silent whispers scream through the void Laughter echoes dreams almost destroyed A melody lost in the haze of doubt Holdin' on tight tryin' to shout [Bridge] Hands in the dirt reach for the sky Questions linger no answers nigh Strings and frets in harmony collide On this journey together we ride [Verse 4] Stars fall like tears from the heavens above Songs of sorrow mixed with love Through the darkness and the strife Philippe happy birthday to life
