Fault To Expiate

Fault To Expiate (Thierry Magnière) 

Before the clouds return with the rain
May I alleviate your pain
And when the sun rises again
May I be home and remain
But for now and that day
I have to pay
(God knows) the cost of my fault
They've judged me and passed their sentence
Without listening to my defence
With his lies that friend deceived them
As it did me, too late to stem
But for now and that day
I have to pay
For the cost of my fault
