"When you marry you will change,"
Said the woman to the man.
"When I marry I will change you,"
Said the woman to the man.
So they married and were happy.
They were happy for a time,
Still they thought about each other
All the time.
"When I marry I will be you,"
Said the woman to the man.
"When you marry you'll be someone,"
Said the woman to the man.
So they married and were someone.
They were someone for a time,
Still they thought about each other
All the time.
"When you leave me you'll be sorry,"
Said the woman to the man.
"When you leave me I will haunt you,"
Said the woman to the man.
So he left her and was haunted.
They were haunted for a time,
Still they thought about each other
All the time.
"When I left him I was happy,"
Said the woman to the child.
"When I left him I was happy,"
Said the woman to her child.
So I left him and was happy,
I was happy with his child.
"You won't know him when you meet him,"
Said the woman to the child.
"You won't know him if you meet him,"
Said the woman to the child.
But he met him and said, "Father,
You were father for a time,
I just wondered who you were in my mind."
"Well, I told you he's your father,"
Said the woman to the child.
"Well, I knew it, you would love him,"
Said the woman to her child.
And I loved him and I loved him
And was happy with our child.
What was it that made you
Treat us so unkind ?
"What's the problem, why 're you crying ?"
Said the woman to the man.
"He's your father, he's your father,"
Said the woman to her son.
"He's the problem, he's my father,
He was father for a time."
"When I die I'll be with him,"
Said the woman to her son.

C'est une maison bleue
Adossée àla colline
On y vient àpied
On ne frappe pas
Ceux qui vivent lÃÂÂ
Ont jeté la clé
On se retrouve ensemble
Après des années de route
Et on vi
ent s'asseoir
Autour d'un repas
Tout le monde est lÃÂÂ
À cinq heures du soir

Quand San Francisco s'embrume
Quand San Francisco s'allume
San Francisco
Où êtes-vous
Lizzard et Luc
Psylvia
Attendez-moi

Nageant dans le brouillard
Enlacés roulant
dans l'herbe
On écoutera Tom àla guitare
Phil àla kéna jusqu'àla nuit noire
Un autre arrivera
Pour nous dire des nouvelles
D'un qui reviendra dans un an ou deux
Puisqu'il est heureux on s'endormira

C'est
une maison bleue
Adossée àla colline
On y vient àpied
On ne frappe pas
Ceux qui vivent lÃÂÂ
Ont jeté la clé
Peuplée de cheveux longs
De grands lits et de musique
Peuplés de lumière
Et peuplée de fous
Elle sera dernière
À rester debout.

Si San
