lyrics

I’ve been walking through these mountain fields
When we left behind our shoeless friend from sept-îles
Rainbow lichen crunching beneath our feet
We met up with him later in the week
Another friend took the trip hitch-hiking alone
A jar of peanut-butter and a blanket on his own
I’ll never forget a place like that
Head north for so long you can’t imagine turning back

I sing a song of a troubled land that echoes in my dreams
We’ve left but my memory’s filled with the taste of New Orleans
A place where the pipelines criss and cross
Where tankers ply the seas
The place where the Mississippi flows so strong
High above the trees
I’ll never forget a place like that
Head south for so long you can’t imagine turning back

Le trésor d’un grand lit pour nous deux
Ou je peux laisser mes idées paresseux
Aux paysages boisés le sommeil n’est pas brisé
Les ténèbres si cruelles et bruyant qui nous ensorcellent
Parfois il n’est qu’un nuage en voyage
Et je ne vais jamais oublier un place comme ça
