| This is tonight
|
| And it rains like in a French black and white movie of the 50's
|
| I feel like a character in it who’s just lost it all
|
| Who is alone with his raincoat
|
| And a face showing a yet unknown way out of it
|
| Steamy hot summer night street
|
| Makes me laugh
|
| I enjoy waiting for a taxi
|
| And I hope
|
| It’s not gonna be here
|
| Until I’ve had enough of
|
| This pleasant situation
|
| Movie is on
|
| There comes a lady through the night
|
| She stops in front of me
|
| And asks me
|
| For a light
|
| To win some time
|
| To introduce myself
|
| I pretend not to know
|
| In which pocket I got my matches
|
| Movie is on
|
| There comes a lady through the night
|
| She stops in front of me
|
| And asks me
|
| For a light
|
| She is walking on but not too far
|
| She disappears behind a door
|
| Some cats down there inside a club
|
| The Sixties play guitar
|
| Movie is on
|
| There came a lady through the night
|
| She stopped in front of me
|
| And asked me
|
| For a light
|
| I enjoy the rain and my wet hair
|
| Feel slightly stupid
|
| But got to follow her
|
| The club is empty
|
| I am standing near the door
|
| She is the only dancer
|
| On the biggest floor
|
| Quel est votre nom?
|
| Madame, que me dites-vous
|
| I don’t know…
|
| I don’t know at all… |
