i can say hello, i can say goodbye, i can say please, i can say i want you. but i can't say hey, did you like the show? can i walk you home? do you know a quiet bar? and if you said to me fkdjfljdskfja. i can only smile cause i don't know. i can say yes, i can ask how much, i can say no, thank you. but i can't say girl, are you all alone? when you go to sleep what do you dream? and if you said to me fjkdjsfal. i can only smile cause i don't know. from the moment our eyes meet, one thousand things came to me to tell you. i can say hello, i can say goodbye, i can say please, i can say i love you. but i can't say hey, do you have to go? why don't you stay? you dont' have to speak, and if you said to me jfkdsjaf;ks. i can only smile, i can only smile, i can only smile, i can only smile, i can only smile cause i don't know.

all of those "dfjksdjkfljadf", i believe are the women speaking in french and he has no idea what they're saying to him ?? i don't have a clue cause i can't make out what's he saying either. i'm guessing that's the point.

may need some fixin' up.

Lost Man in a Foreign Country

I can say hello, I can say goodbye
I can say please, I can say I love you
but I can't say:
Babe, did you like the show?
Can I walk you home?
Do you know a quiet bar?
And if you said to me
Embrasse moi, embrasse moi,
I could only smile cause I don't know

I can say yes, I can ask how much
I can say no and thank you
but I can't say:
Girl, are you all alone?
When you go to sleep,
what do you dream?
And if you said to me,
Quand je dors, je reve a toi,
I could only smile cause I don't know...

I can say hello, I can say goodbye
I can say please, I can say I want you
but I can't say:
Babe, do you have to go?
Why don't you stay....
We don't even have to speak...
And if you said to me,
Je serais ici demain,
I could only smile,
I could only smile,
I could only smile cause I don't know

damn hes right. montreal girls were definately hot. its not that physically theyre hotter than american girls, because i think american girls have better faces and bodies, but those damn canucks just have a certain sexy attitude. damn.. and they love to show their bodies off too.. love them (O)(O)

i wish canada and mexico would switch places. i would just get and my car and drive, never looking back.

the first "something in French" is
and please remember i'm translating brad into french into english here, but...
"embrassez-moi"
translation = "kiss me"

the second "something in French"
"quand je dors je reve toi"
translation = "when i sleep i dream of you"

and please pardon my conjugation if it's all in the wrong tense[/quote]

i was never good at math

so there's a third "something in french" that i totally ignored, however, and this one was really hard to make out but i translated what i thought it was in english into french and it seems to fit
"je me reveillerai ici demain"
which translates into "i'll wake up here tomorrow"

if i got all three do i get a prize?

and where did you guys get that picture of me from?
:wink:

just kidding, that's halloween next year...

at first, i didn't really enjoy this song. thought it was kind of corny. after wriitng the lyrics out, and hearing what the translations were, the whole concept of this song is pretah pretah good.
