Il faisait le deuil à sa façon
Il pleurait la nuit sous l’olivier
Me voir lui faisait penser à elle
Tant mieux il voulait pas l’oublier
J’voyais dans l’air ses souvenirs
Tellement il y pensait fort
Il m’a dit
C’est elle qui est partie
Mais c’est moi qui suis mort
J’avais des phrases bateaux
Pour l’océan de ses larmes
Il sentait que j’y croyais pas
J’essayais de fabriquer la colle
Sans savoir si les coeurs se réparent
Et j’inventais des proverbes
Comme un mauvais prof de philosophie
Il écoutait des vieux chanteurs
Il était sûr qu’il chantait pour lui
Des après-midi entières
En silence
Juste pour être là
Je disais rien tant qu’il me parlait pas
Et des fois à la fin il m’prenait dans ses bras
En sortant du cimetière
Il m’a dit ému
Je préfère la douleur de la perdre
A la peine de ne pas l’avoir connue
Il faudrait plus qu’une chanson
Pour ranger nos peines et changer le monde
Il faudrait plus qu’une chanson
Mais j’ai rien que mes poèmes
Oh Dieu
Dis-moi ce qu’elle a bien pu faire
D’odieux
Pour mériter d’être ainsi faite
Elle est là ma mère mais c’est plus ma mère
Depuis qu’elle vit sans souvenir
Elle a dit mon nom c’était pas mon nom
Elle est là mais elle est partie
Bien sûr je l’aime
Même si elle me pèse
L’amour c’est bien c’est beau
Mais c’est pas un remède
Je sais qu’elle sait
Je sais qu’elle sent
Je sais qu’elle voit qu’on s’ressemble
On a l’même rêve
On a l’même sang
Nous sommes deux impuissants
Un jour si tout ça m’arrive
Si je perds la tête
Parlez-moi musique
Je chanterais peut-être
Alors mes enfants vous verrez
Que pour éponger vos regrets
C’est plus que ça qu’il faudrait
Il faudrait plus qu’une chanson
Pour ranger nos peines et changer le monde
Il faudrait plus qu’une chanson
Mais j’ai rien que mes poèmes
Y’a ces soirs d’angoisse quand t’es seul chez toi
Envie d’espace
Envie d’espoir
Besoin d’y croire
Tu connais l’histoire
Tu sors les plaquettes de cachets
Mais tu sais bien que c’est provisoire
C’est illusoire
A haute voix tu te dis
Ressaisis-toi
Tu d’mandes au ciel qui te sauvera
Mais la personne qui t’sauv’ra est celle qu’y a dans ton miroir
Apaise ton mal avec ces quelques notes
Yeah
La musique y’a que ça qui t’réconforte
Ouais
Ca va aller aller
Yeah
Briser l’putain d’mauvais sort
T’as fermé les stores
T’es pas lucide quand la douleur est trop forte
Et ça tape encore
Tu tournes en rond dans l’appart
Comme si t’allais trouver une nouvelle porte
Oh
Ca va aller aller
Même si tu sais
Il faudrait plus qu’une chanson
Pour ranger nos peines et changer le monde
Il faudrait plus qu’une chanson
Mais j’ai rien que mes poèmes
Pardon
Pardon
Pardon
