Lily, la dernière fois qu'on s'est vu, c'était dans ce petit bar de l'est bleu de fumées rempli de fugitifs, d'estropiés, de fugueurs et de poétiques déserteurs.
Et puis ce jeune cow-boy, gueule d'ange cassée, qui restait dans son coin à te reluquer.
Comment il s'appelle déjà ?
Jean c'est ça !
A cause de cet air de gosse perdu
Tu es tombée amoureuse de lui
De cette façon de bégayer
A chaque fois qu'il te parlait
Un jour tu as disparu, et comme lui aussi, bah, c'était vite plié. Tu t'es enfuie, tu as tout quitté avec lui
Lily,
Oh Lily where have you been ? Lily Dale
Oh ma Lily
Oh Lily where have you been ? Lily Dale
Ma Lily Dale
Évidement vous étiez fauchés. pas un radis, pas un kopeck.
Vous dormiez à la belle étoile, vous mangiez des baies et des myrtilles.
C'était l'été.
Dans la forêt vous avez croisé un indien blessé.
Il avait tout perdu.
Jean et lui se sont battus. Tu criais mais ça servait à rien
Alors tu t'es mise à pleurer.
Ils ont stoppé pour te regarder puis se sont mis à rire
AU début tu étais vexée puis tu as ris aussi
Ils se sont relevés, se sont regardés puis sont devenus frères
Lily
Tu es tombée amoureuse de l'indien bien sur
Mais c'est pas allé loin, tu aimais trop Jean
Puis l'indien il s'en foutait,
Il chassait bien alors tous les jours vous mangiez à votre faim Lily
Oh Lily where have you been ? Lily Dale
Oh ma Lily
Oh Lily where have you been ? Lily Dale
Ma Lily Dale
Tu t'rappelles quand à la fermeture du bar tu m'as emmené à la rivière ?
C'était fin juillet ou début août. Insupportable la chaleur
Tu t'es déshabillée, tu as plongé toute nue
Et tu m'as demandé de te rejoindre
On a glissé dans l'eau tiède et nagé jusqu'à la petite île
On y voyait comme en plein jour avec la lune qui se levait
Sur le ban de sable tu m'as frôlé et tu m'as embrasse
On est rentré, on n'en a jamais plus parlé
J'ai écrit un poème sur cette nuit tu sais
Je n'ai pas osé te le lire.
Ça s'appelle "Le baiser de la lune"
Lily, Lily belle
La dernière fois qu'on vous a vu toi, Jean et l'indien
C'est dans ce patelin à 50 bornes d'ici
Puis on a perdu vos traces mais je vous imagine là bas, loin à l'ouest
Peut être en Californie tout est possible, en Californie tout le monde a sa place
En Californie, Whaa whoo, en Californie
Enfin je pense à toi et ça me rend joyeux, triste aussi. Triste joyeux
Lily... Dale
Oh Lily where have you been ? Lily Dale
Oh ma Lily
Oh Lily where have you been ? Lily Dale
Ma Lily Dale
Oh Lily Dale
Oh Lily Dale
Oh Lily Dale
Oh Lily Dale
