When in front of fifteen people
I didn't believe it at all
When I was watching for the mailman
At the very start of the month
When I took the Corail train
When beneath my fingers slid
Way before all that, she was there
Way before all that, she was there
When the peddler of ambitions
When I walked down the street
When I dreamt of an accomplice
Than about the clinking glasses
Way before all that, she was there
Way before all that, she was there
When we lived, just the two of us
Dreaming of something a bit better
When I paid the subscription
Doing nothing but stupid sh*t
When life pulled its dirty tricks
Way before all that, she was there
Way before all that, she was there
Way before all that, she was there
