Renaud - Mistral gagnants


Sitting on a bench five minutes with you
And looking at people as long as there're some
Talking to you about the good time that's dead or that will come back
Squeezing in my hand your little fingers
Feeding the stupid pigeons
Kicking them but not for real
And hearing your laugh that cracks the walls
That really knows how to cure my wounds
Telling you a little bit how I was a little kid
Some fabulous candies that we stole from the store
"Car en sac" and "Minto", one franc "caramels" (Those are names of different candies)
The "mistral gagnants"
Walking in the rain five minutes with you
And looking at life as long as there's some
Telling you the Earth eating you with my eyes (he means that he can't stop looking at her)
And talking about your mom a little
And jumping in puddles to make her groan
To mess up our shoes and laugh about it
And hearing your laugh like we hear the sea
Stopping and going backwards
To particularly tell you the "Carambars" then, the "Coco au lait" (Those are names of different candies)
And the real "Roudoudou" that cut our lips (name of candies)
And messed up our teeth
The "mistral gagnants"
Sitting on a bench five minutes with you
And looking at the sun that's going away
Talking to you about the good time that's dead and I don't care
Telling you that the bad ones that's not us
That if I'm crazy, it only about your eyes
Because they have the advantage to be two
And hearing your laugh to rise (fly/take off) as high
As the screams (songs) of the birds
And to finally tell you that you have to love life
And to love it even if time is an assassin
And takes with him the laugh of the children (kids)
The "mistral gagnants"
The "mistral gagnants"
