Le spleen de l'officier Lyrics

This time you went too far too long
It"s time you leave the pack for good
You took advantage of the situation
There"s no way you get away with it
As far as I can see
The crowded avenues
Don"t need you know
As far as I"m concerned
The dreams you barely touched
Abandoned by the sea

The river flows
I"m the only one
Who can see through
Those gloomy steams
The crucial deadline
You see it coming
Terrible secrets
Obscure lies
Too hard to bear,
For a lonely hound
You"re like a child when we turn off the lights
Another round or two and we call it a night
The river flows
It knocks you down
I can read through
Your hopeless tears
The crucial deadline
I saw it coming
Terrible secrets
Obscure lies
Too hard to bear,
For a lonely hound
