Verse
Sometimes I think of Mrs T
She was always such a sweet lady
I went down, down to to Montreal
To trace her younger days
A half-smoked cigarette and a broken phrase
I went down, down to St Laurent
Chorus
et c'est la que j'ai vu
le ciel et la terre tout pres de moi
et c'est la que j'ai vu
tout au meme temps
Sometimes I think about Rita
She'll hunt down words just to feed you
I wrote it down, and it became a song
(Chorus)
Now I think about David
And what he was like as a little kid
I walked down and introduce myself
He must have shaken lots of hands
Learned the language of many a man
I walked down and introduce myself
(chorus)
note: the french very roughly/google translates to "and that's where I saw the sky
and land right near me and that's what I saw at the same time"
