Does "Without blame" have French lyrics?
Jammu Africa (1996)
Singer and actor Ismael Lo sings the duet 'Without Blame' (La Femme Sans
Haine) with Marianne Faithfull . The song has english lyrics by Roger
Waters.
Without Blame
All women are queens
But some are more regal than others
Some shatter men's dreams
By breaking away from their lovers
Of one such woman I sing
Who said when her man let the enemy in
I'm gone, gone with the wind
The love you would not defend with your life
You cannot pretend now with tears in your eyes
I'm gone, gone with the wind
I'm gone in search of a new king
All women are queens
No matter what their environs
Behindthe myriad shapes that we see
Dwell mysterious sirens
Burn the towns Burn the back street bars
Burn your boardwalk basement trade
Feel the flame feel the cut of the sword
your living flesh reeks of compromise made
In the face of barbarian hoards
An honest defeat is the only reward
The love you would not defend with your life
You cannot pretend now with tears in your eyes
I'm gone, gone with the wind
I'm gone in search of a new king
All women are queens
Tell this to the woman who loves you
You may not live up to her dreams
This even a king cannot always do
So this queen with her pure strength unveiled
Leaves the king a good man but weak and afraid
She leaves as she must like an ebbing tide
Drawn out of sigth by the moons of pure ligth
The love that you would not defend with your life
You cannot pretend with tears in your eyes
I am gone, gone with the wind
I am gone in search of a new king
I am gone
Without blame

How much you wanna bet that when it comes time for Beth (if that's
even her real name) to ante up, both she ~and~ her first born are
absolutely nowhere to be found?

Are you the guy (or one of the guys) behind the "Pink Floyd Hyperbase"? In
such a case I'd like to let you know that it is a very consistent source of
information and the first place for me to look on anything around PF.
Thanks.:-)
