À Nîmes

Je me suis engagé sous le plus beau des cieux
Dans Nice la Marine au nom victorieux

Perdu parmi 900 conducteurs anonymes
Je suis un charretier du neuf charroi de Nîmes

L'Amour dit Reste ici Mais là-bas les obus
Épousent ardemment et sans cesse les buts

J'attends que le printemps commande que s'en aille
Vers le nord glorieux l'intrépide bleusaille

Les 3 servants assis dodelinent leurs fronts
Où brillent leurs yeux clairs comme mes éperons

Un bel après-midi de garde à l'écurie
J'entends sonner les trompettes d'artillerie

J'admire la gaieté de ce détachement
Qui va rejoindre au front notre beau régiment

Guitare

Gastibelza, l'homme à la carabine,
Chantait ainsi:
' Quelqu'un a-t-il connu dona Sabine ?
Quelqu'un d'ici ?
Dansez, chantez, villageois ! la nuit gagne
Le mont Falù.
- Le vent qui vient à travers la montagne
Me rendra fou !

Quelqu'un de vous a-t-il connu Sabine,
Ma senora ?
Sa mère était la vieille maugrabine
D'Antequera
Qui chaque nuit criait dans la Tour-Magne
Comme un hibou ... -
Le vent qui vient à travers la montagne
Me rendra fou !
Dansez, chantez! Des biens que l'heure envoie

Il faut user.

Poèmes divers

Les villes sont pleines d'amour et de douleur
Deux plantes dont la mort est la commune fleur

Les villes que j'ai vues vivaient comme des folles
Et vomissaient le soir le soleil des journées
Les villes chaque nuit [ceignant] une auréole
Feignaient d'être soleil tant qu'il n'était point né

Villes chair de ma vie j'aime vos nuits solaires
J'ai promené mon cœur par vos soirs blancs et froids
Et libre jusqu'au jour j'ai foulé sans colère
Les ombres projetées par les statues des rois

Les meurt-de-faim les sans-le-sou voyaient la lune
Étalée dans le ciel comme un œuf sur le plat
Les becs de gaz pissaient leur flamme au clair de lune
Les croque-morts avec des bocks tintaient des glas

Ô maisons dans la nuit Ô lits pleins de râles
De la mort des amants du bonheur des époux

Love Is Reason

(pal waaktaar/ magne furuholmen)
My breath was coming fast
And as I make a start
You turn to go
Oh, oh
Ill do what you want me to
Ill cry at the thought of the loss of a heart
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason enough
My morals are changing fast
I told you it wouldnt last
You turn and go
Oh, oh
Ill be what you want me to be
Id die at the thought of the loss of your heart
Love is reason
Love is reason
Love is reason

Move To Memphis

(pal waaktaar/magne furuholmen)
Walked around no one around
You were the one who taught me better
This old town brings me down
You were the one who told me youve got to
Move to memphis
Thats what Ill do
Move to memphis and follow you
Trace that highway down to your doorway
Move tho memphis and be with you
On the day you walked away
I was the one who said
Youd better stick around stay in town
You were the one who told me youve got to
Move to memphis
Thats what Ill do
Chase the shadow that follows you
Trace that highway down to your doorway
Move to memphis and be with you
Thats what Ill do

Take On Me

(pal waaktaar/magne furuholmen/morten harket)
Were talking away
I dont know what
Im to say
Ill say it anyway
Todays another day to find you
Shying away
Ill be coming for your love, ok?
Take on me, take me on
Ill be gone
In a day or two
So needless to say
Im odds and ends
But thats me
Stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is ok.
Say after me
Its no better to be safe than sorry
Take on me, take me on
Ill be gone

I Wish I Cared

(magne furuholmen)
To hold me closer or set me free
To trust completely or let it be
You dont know my destiny
You cant see what I can see
Hey - I wish I cared
Hey - I wish I cared
To love me truely or let me go
Inbetween I dont want to know
This is how it has to be
No more us and no more we
Hey - I wish I cared
Hey - I wish I cared
Once again, on the station
See your face in a crowd
Comes again the sensation
You cant hear yourself think
With their voices inside your head
Hey - I wish I cared
Hey - I wish I cared

Minor Earth, Major Sky

(magne furuholmen / paul waaktaar)
I cant see me in this empty place
Just another lonely face
I cant see me here in outer space
Its so hard to leave a trace
And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
Its a
Minor earth major sky
I cant see me in this lonely town
Not a friendly face around
Can you hear me when I speak out loud
Hear my voice above the crowd
And I try and I try and I try
But it never comes out right
Yes I try and I try and I try
But I never get it right
