lyrics

Le vent s’est levé ce matin
Et a emporté tous mes chagrins
Puis j’ai trouvé cette petite clef
Promet moi de la garder

J’ai laissé entrer la lumière
Je suis sorti prendre un peu l’air
J’ai dépoussiéré mes erreurs du passé
Puis par la fenêtre envolées

Aujourd’hui j’ai senti que le vent a tourné
Serait-ce le temps de me placer
Quoi qu’il en soit un ménage va de soi
Pour me retrouver dans ce monde

Je prend de la distance sur moi
Pour m’aider à mieux faire mes choix
Quand on est centré sur notre intérieur
Difficile de viser le cœur

Aujourd’hui j’ai senti que le vent a tourné
Serait-ce le temps de me placer
Quoi qu’il en soit un ménage va de soi
Pour me retrouver dans ce monde

Quel plaisir quand au bout des doigt
Je serre mon harmonica
Je mijote cet air que j’souffle au travers
Et produit cette mélodie

Quand toi aussi tu vivras
Une journée comme celle-la
Cette petite clef, donne la à un autre
Je crois bien qu’elle y est pour quelque chose
