En ce temps de rentrée mon IPod a choisi la chanson de Michael Jackson « You are not alone« . Ma rencontre musicale avec le roi de la pop date de mon enfance. La fille de ma nourrice était un fan de Michael Jackon,  elle écoutait ses chansons en boucle. J’ai donc été bercée par Thriller, Billie Jeans et autres. J’adore « You are not alone » aussi bien pour les paroles que la mélodie. « You are not alone » est extraite de l’album History sorti en 1995.

Les paroles de « You are not alone » sont très touchantes et émouvantes. C’est l’histoire d’un homme amoureux qui a perdu son amour.  Il se demande comment il peut vivre sans celle qui l’aime.

Another day has gone
I’m still all alone
How could this be
You’re not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay

But you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart
But you are not alone

‘Lone, ‘lone
Why, ‘lone

Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
Then forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart
For you are not alone

Whisper three words and I’ll come runnin’
And girl you know that I’ll be there
I’ll be there

You are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay
For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart

For you are not alone…
