Vé!
J'aurais du aller à l'encierro. J'aurais du dire au revoir. J'aurais du profiter de cette odeur si particulière qui me manque 355 jours par an. J'aurais du regarder encore les vieux, les gamins, les jeunes, rester tranquillement au milieu, leur parler, écouter ces accents dont je me moque 355 jours par an. Faire attention à eux, pour une fois. Me laisser aller, pour une fois.
J'ai beau critiquer, j'ai beau lancer des regards amusés, je sais qu'une fois partie c'est à ici que je pense. Je sais que l'été prochain, j'aurai ma place sur les bancs en bois des arènes, que je m'exploserai le dos pendant une heure, que je me tordrai le cou à essayer de retrouver tout le monde, et que j'adorerai ça. J'crois que je me suis rendue compte, aujourd'hui, que plus jamais je ne serai totalement sincère quand je dirai "boah tu sais, Lansargues...". Plus jamais.

It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It don't matter, anyhow
When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm travellin' on
But don't think twice, it's all right
And it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
That light I never knowed
And it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
Still I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin' anyway
So don't think twice, it's all right
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, girl
Like you never did before
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, girl
I can't hear you any more
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wonderin' all the way down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I'm told
I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don't think twice, it's all right
So long, honey babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
But goodbye's too good a word, babe
So I'll just say fare thee well
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time...
But don't think twice, it's all right.

I won’t try to argue now
Anyway I feel there’s nothing I could say
To ease your mind
Maybe there’s nothing exciting outside
But ‘round here I’m just wasting my time
Spinning ‘round on nothing new
When I close my eyes I remember that kiss
I’d rather keep them wide open
And if I miss that train do you really think
That even here, I’d be closer to you
So here I am leaving soon and
I’m standing at gate 22
‘Cause whatever you may think I forgot
You know I’m still thinking about it
Sometimes I wish I could stay
But no matter where I go, no matter how long
You know I’ll keep hanging on. Sweet memories
I’m leaving but my mind will surely stay
At gate 22
There’s too many dreams I must chase down
Though sometimes I bite off more than I can chew
I know you’d like to keep me near
I know it’s easier to be two
But I can’t plan my life all around you
I’m weaker than I’ll let you know
So don’t ask me to jump this wall
From here it looks too tall
Two people kissing goodbye facing a door
A classic picture we’re all tired of
So here I am leaving soon and
I’m standing at gate 22
‘Cause whatever you may think I forgot
You know I’m still thinking about it
Sometimes I wish I could stay
But no matter where I go, no matter how long
You know I’ll keep hanging on. Sweet memories
I’m leaving but my mind will surely stay
And I already see the picture of that day
When you’ll say you’ll wait for me
And I’ll pretend just then to believe you
I’ll send you postcards for a few weeks and then
Another perfect moment at the wrong time
But the timing is always wrong
Here I am leaving soon and
I’m standing at gate 22
‘Cause whatever you may think I forgot
You know I’m still thinking about it
Sometimes I wish I could stay
But no matter where I go, no matter how long
You know I’ll keep hanging on. Sweet memories
I’m leaving but my mind will surely stay
At gate 22...
