I bit the dust,
And it tasted sweet,
Like candy,
I hit the road and,
I had nothing left to lose,
And all the choices,
I felt I should be making,
Then seems to me,
There’s nothing left to choose.

So I'm speeding up,
I've got my left foot down,
No looking back,
I'm on my way,
The wind’s got me now,
It takes me anywhere,
I'll pick the slack right up,
Another day.

My left foots down,
Is there any better feeling?
I can't recall,
And I don't think I want to know,
I'm good for now,
Who knows about forever,
Forever’s blurry in my mind,
Like long ago.

Staring at the timeI’m stuck here watching the second hand go by mm hmmCan’t wait to get outsideWhere I'd rather be than stuck in this 9 to 5
I wanna feel the air on my skinThe wind in my hairThe grass on my feet
I wanna run awayFind a new placeGive myselfPeace of mindRun awayFind a new placeGive myselfPeace of mind
I wanna send some timeAppreciating me myself and I mm hmmCoz I know it’s been a whileBut now I’m ready to explore my world inside
Baby I’ve beenSearching for meBut I was here all alongMaybe I was feeling incompleteBut now I am strong

FR:
Quand mes pensées vont parfois,
Vers des lieux distants

Là ou j’étais autrefois

Je vois palpitant


paraître un pays au-delà du grand océan
paraître des bribes de joie,
de tendresse
je ne pourrai oublier les couleurs,
le vent
les gens, la sérénité,

le
bonheur présent
là-basje pouvais ralentir le tempo le temps
je chantais à en ravir la paresse

comme autrefois,
comme autrefois
en douceur

rechercher la cadence
comme autrefois,
comme autrefois
lentement pour trouver résonance


si mon passé quelques fois m’est si apaisant
c’est qu’il recèle l’émoi d’un ailleurs distant

là-bas je savais que l’on peut sourire autrement

je chantais fou de joie, de tristesse


comme autrefois, comme autrefois
en douceur rechercher la cadence
comme autrefois,
comme autrefois
lentement pour trouver résonance
ENG:
When my thoughts go sometimes
To distant places
Where I once was
I see a land
a land beyond the great ocean
brief glimpses of joy, of tenderness
I can't forget the colors, the wind
the people, the serenity, the happiness of the moment
over there I could slow down the tempo of time
I would sing to the joy of idleness

as in days gone by, as in days gone by
gently in search of the cadence
as in days gone by, as in days gone by
slowly to find resonance


if my past is sometimes so soothing to me
it's because it conceals the stirrings of a distant elsewhere
there I knew that one could in a different way
i would sing crazy with joy, with sadness

as in days gone by, as in days gone by
gently in search of the cadence
as in days gone by, as in days gone by
slowly to find resonance

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And the days of auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.

We'll drink a cup of kindness yet,
For the sake of auld lang syne.

And surely you will buy your cup,
And surely I'll buy mine!

We'll take a cup of kindness yet,
For the sake of auld lang syne.

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.

We'll take a cup of kindness yet,
For the sake of auld lang syne.

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And the days of auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.

We'll drink a cup of kindness yet,
For the sake of auld lang syne.

You slowed the clocks when you talked,
To me, to me,
The roof of my mouth turned heavy and round,
To me, to me.I wish you were still,
Writing me down,
I wish you were still,
Around.A new newspaper crown,
I wore,
I wore it out,
If you, if you knew me now,
Could you go without?I wish you were still,
Teasing me out,
I wish you were still,
Around.I'll give,
Back the words that you said,
To me, to me,
I'll dry,
Out the stream that you fed,
Through me through me.I wish you were still,
Writing me down,
I wish you were still,
Around.
