Ami de liège


Toi mon ami de liège
toi fauché par la vie
par la bêtise humaine
qui s'étend par ici
toi mon ami de liège
toi petit frère des nuits
qui chantais mes poèmes
comme on chante la vie
toi mon ami parti
bien trop tôt pour en bas
ou plutôt pour là-haut
toi le martyr liégeois
toi mon ami qui sait
oui le prix des violences
le prix des ignorances
toi mon ami en bas
passe leur bien le bonjour
a ceux qu'on a perdus
ceux qui tout comme toi
sont partis avant l'heure
et dis toi que bientôt
nous serons près de toi
comme un ave maria
qui chante alléluia
pour boire une liégeoise
ou pour chanter verdun
puis pour chanter ce plat pays qui est le tien
ce pays qui te pleure
et moi dans ce studio
oui moi l'humble conteur
qui chante tes bateaux
toi mon ami de liège
de paris ou roubaix
des palais ou des tours
oui de saint petersbourg
j'ai le poing vers le ciel
comme un combat sans fin
j'ai le poing qui se serre
pour te prendre la main
pour te dire que mon cœur
pour toujours en mémoire
gardera ta lueur
en éternel espoir
gardera ta lueur
en éternel espoir

toi mon ami à dieu
puis surtout à la terre
nous remettons nos yeux
pleurant dans ce cimetière
que les fleurs de décembre
emportent ton parfum
qu'elles chantent ton prénom
aux éternels embruns
et que s'envole au ciel
le chant des hirondelles
qu'elles emportent ton âme
plus loin que l'éternel
que s'envole l'éternel
le chant des hirondelles
qu'elles emportent ton âme
bien plus loin que le ciel

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
