It's not time to make a change

Just relax, take it easy

You're still young, that's your fault

There's so much you have to know

Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me, I am old
But I'm happy

I was once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To be calm, when you've found
Something going on

But take your time, think a lot
Why think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
         D          G  C/G (r)  c g  c a  G  C/G (r)
But your dreams may not

How can I try to explain?                                       (embarque)
When I do, he turns away again
It's always been the same
The same old story

From the moment I could talk
I was ordered to listen
Now there's a way, and I know
       D       G   G
That I have to go away
  D      C       G  C/G (r)  c g  c a  x 2
I know I have to go

(couplet)  puis  (couplet long)  w/ solo

It's not time (away) to make a change (away)                    (doux)
Just sit down (away), take it slowly
You're still young (I), that's you're fault (know)
There's so much (I have to make this) you have to go through

(decision) Find a girl, settle down
If (alone) you want you can marry
Look at me (no), I am old
But I'm happy
          
All the times (stay) that I've cried (stay)                     (rembarque)
Keeping all (stay) the things I knew inside
It's hard (why), but it's harder (must)
To ignore it (you go and make this)

(decision) If they were right, I'd agree
But (alone) it's them, they know (!) not me now
There's a way, and I know
That I have to go away
I know I have to go                                             (reste sur go)
