Nino Ferrer - South lyrics

Between the big trees The flowers and the green gra** The house is there It's white and brown And covered With green vine Which looks like hair We call it the south Cause time is so long there That life sure will take us More than a million years And we like to stay there So many children are playing in the garden So many dogs There is a cat and a turtle and an old well But not a frog We call it the south Cause time is so long there That life sure will take us More than a million years And we like to stay there I know one day I'll have to leave the sweet life Back to the dark Don't really care but they won't ask my opinion As a matter of fact I hope it's the south Cause time is so long there That life sure will take us More than a million years And we like to stay there
