Ici, tu vois tout est tranquille
Ici, ça va, ça vole, ça coule
Et s'il n'y a pas les lumières de la ville
La lune, c'est pas mal comme ampoule
C'est pas mal, les étoiles, à l'aise
C'est pas rien, la terre le matin
Voir le soleil qui s'couche au creux d'une falaise
Et se lève là-bas sur un bouquet de thym
Et puis, puis surtout, bien souvent, très souvent
Y a des coups, des beaux coups, beaucoup d'vent
Dorénavant, toi qui vends, soi-disant, vends du vent
Tu feras moins le malin, l'important
Devant autant de vent
Ici, tu vois tout est sauvage
Ici, la garrigue, le rocher
Avec la vigne pour faire bon ménage
La vigne a l'esprit de clocher
Les clochers, ils ont la dégaine
De clochers d'églises mexicaines
Imperturbablement laissant tomber leurs plombes
De bronze sur les saisons et sur les tombes
Et puis, puis surtout, bien souvent, très souvent
Y a des coups, des beaux coups, beaucoup d'vent
Tour à tour vent émouvant, enivrant, déchirant
Allégresse et détresse qui s'mélangent
Vent de diable et vent d'ange
Et puis tout redeviens paisible
Tu peux sortir ton cerf-volant
Et si ton chant passe à coté d'la cible
Autant, autant en emporte le vent
