Quand tu es dans la lune, les idées en panne
Je me voudrais brune comme une Gitane
Me glisser entre tes doigts et puis me brûler
Me consumer pour toi, n'être que fumée
 
Quand tu es dans ce monde où tes rêves t'entraînent
Je me voudrais blonde comme une américaine
Être douce et sage ou sucrée
T'emmener sur mon nuage de fumée
 
L'amour c'est comme une cigarette
Ça brûle et ça monte à la tête
Quand on ne peut plus s'en passer
Tout ça s'envole en fumée
L'amour c'est comme une cigarette
Ça flambe comme une allumette
Ça pique les yeux, ça fait pleurer
Et ça s'envole en fumée
 
Je peux être française, en robe bleue (bleue)
Anglaise, si tu le veux
Ou être à la menthe, en bague dorée
Ne crois pas que je mente, tout n'est que fumée
 
L'amour c'est comme une cigarette
Ça flambe comme une allumette
Ça pique les yeux, ça fait pleurer
Et ça s'envole en fumée
 
On fait tout un tabac
Quand l'amour s'en vient ou s'en va
On est des cigarettes
Qu'il roule quand il a envie (quand il a envie)
Et je deviens fumée
Pour t'intoxiquer de moi
Blonde ou brune, brune ou blonde
Je le serai pour toi
 
L'amour c'est comme une cigarette
Ça brûle et ça monte à la tête
Quand on ne peut plus s'en passer
Tout ça s'envole en fumée
L'amour c'est comme une cigarette
Ça flambe comme une allumette
Ça pique les yeux, ça fait pleurer
Et ça s'envole en fumée
 
L'amour c'est comme une cigarette
Ça flambe comme une allumette
Ça pique les yeux, ça fait pleurer
Et ça s'envole en fumée
L'amour c'est comme une cigarette.

L'AMITIÉ

FRANÇOISE HARDY

ANNÉE:1963
 
         Françoise Hardy, née le 17 janvier 1944 à Paris, est une auteur-compositrice-interprète et actrice française.
  Sur des mélodies mélancoliques qu'elle affectionne, le répertoire de Françoise Hardy est en grande partie le reflet des doutes, des interrogations et de l’anxiété que suscitent en elle les tourments des relations sentimentales et de la nostalgie en général.
      Parallèlement à l'écriture de chansons, elle porte de l'intérêt à l’astrologie, qu’elle appréhende comme complément à la psychologie.
          L'Amitié est le quatrième album, édité en France et à l'étranger, de la chanteuse Françoise Hardy. Sans titre à l'origine, cet album est ici identifié par celui de son principal succès. L’édition originale est parue en France, en novembre 1965.
Beaucoup de mes amis sont venus des nuages
Avec soleil et pluie comme simples bagages
Ils ont fait la saison des amitiés sincères
La plus belle saison des quatre de la terre
 
Ils ont cette douceur des plus beaux paysages
Et la fidélité des oiseaux de passage
Dans leurs cœurs est gravée une infinie tendresse
Mais parfois dans leurs yeux se glisse la tristesse
 
Alors, ils viennent se chauffer chez moi
Et toi aussi tu viendras
 
Tu pourras repartir au fin fond des nuages
Et de nouveau sourire à bien d'autres visages
Donner autour de toi un peu de ta tendresse
Lorsqu'un autre voudra te cacher sa tristesse
 
Comme l'on ne sait pas ce que la vie nous donne
Il se peut qu'à mon tour je ne sois plus personne
S'il me reste un ami qui vraiment me comprenne
J'oublierai à la fois mes larmes et mes peines
 
Alors, peut-être je viendrai chez toi
Chauffer mon cœur à ton bois.

Woo!
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Sunset through a windshield
I can see it now like a picture in a frame
(Picture in a frame, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Blue jeans and t-shirts, who we were
We wore it like a name (like a name)
I wish I could go back to those days
 
When the town was the whole world
And love was the girl next door
Soundtrack was a song in the dark
I miss those days when our dreams
Were there for chasin'
But time was better wasted
We were summer young and livin' for a Friday
And freedom was a highway (oh-oh, oh-oh)
Freedom was a highway (oh-oh, oh-oh)
 
Barbwire on a fencepost with a crosswind
On a road no one was on (no one was on)
Yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Five deep with our hands up
Just singin' along to a hip-hop song
I wish I could rewind and replay
 
When the town was the whole world
And love was the girl next door
Soundtrack was a song in the dark
I miss those days when our dreams
Were there for chasin'
But time was better wasted
We were summer young and livin' for a Friday
And freedom was a highway
Freedom was a highway
 
When you're 17 and drivin'
You don't think about the road runnin' out
No, no, no, no
You just keep your eyes on that horizon
'Cause you're wrapped up in now (ooh, ooh)
Hey (ooh yeah, ooh yeah) woo!
 
I wish I could go back to those days
When the town was the whole world
And love was the girl next door
Soundtrack was a song in the dark
I miss those days when our dreams
Were there for chasin'
But time was better wasted
We were summer young and livin' for a Friday
And freedom was a highway (freedom was a highway)
Freedom was a highway, baby (oh yeah)
 
And freedom was a highway (freedom was a highway)
Freedom was a highway (oh-oh, oh-oh).

'm soaring the sky, I can hear the birds
And man they don't lie
How you gonna catch me, When I'm this high
 
I'm moving on
I got the words to a brand new song
How you gonna catch me, when I'm this gone
 
Gone tomorrow here today
Just in case you got somethin' to say
I'll be leaving with the rest if goodbye
Is all we have
 
I disconnected the phone
Told the neighbors I'll be heading home
As soon as the light hits the morn
 
I'm heading north
Gonna see what this heart's really worth
I guess it's time to be on my own
 
Gone tomorrow here today
Just in case you got somethin' to say
I'll be leaving with the rest if goodbye
Is all we have
 
I sure would love to see you tonight
Maybe try to end this fight
If I don't hear you knockin on my door
Then I'll know for sure
 
Gone tomorrow here today
Just in case you got somethin' to say
I'll be leaving with the rest if goodbye
Is all
 
Gone tomorrow here today
I'll be leaving with the rest if goodbye
Is all we have.
