about

In the hills of St. Narcisse de Rimouski.

lyrics

There is so much for you to give
But you spend your time alone.
Your luck is supernatural -
What could that ever mean?
Do you traipse across half frozen lakes
Just to set my world on fire?

Creeping dawn, leaping fawn.

Better snow than black flies,
All the better, my deer, to see you.
No frame could hold this picture.
Guess we'll just have to be here.
Draw moustaches on the saints in tears.
Life isn't as damned as it appears.

Creeping dawn, leaping fawn.

You don't believe in ghosts until your haunted
And the sea inside swirls in a frightful tide.
Just when you get those demons exercised,
You recognize the ghost inside looks an awful lot like you.

Dans les collines pas loin d'ici,
Dans les rayons d'un soleil faible,
J'entends le vent et les corbeaux
Et j't'attends sans espérer.
Pi lorsque j'prends la route chez moi,
Je t'évoquerai d'un ton tout bas:

Creeping dawn, leaping fawn.
Creeping dawn, leaping fawn.

Think sonic Doritos: oh so crunchy, practically too tasty, probably not good for you – but you don’t care. ... more
