J'irai Où Tu Iras

In my home the forests sway
And the roofs scratch the sky
The waters of the torrents are violent
And the snow is eternal
In my home the wolves are at our doors
And all the children understand them
We hear the cries of New York
And the boats on the Seine

Go for your forests, your wolves, your skyscrapers
Go for your torrents, your eternal snows
I live where your eyes shine, where your blood flows
Where arms hold me tight

I'll go where you go, my country will be you
I'll go where you go, no matter the place
No matter the location

I want coconut trees, beaches
And palm trees in the wind
The sun's fire on my face
And the blue of the oceans
I want camels, mirages
And enchanting deserts
Caravans and travels like in brochures

Go for your coconut trees, your shores
Go for your blue swaying lagoons
I live where love is a village
Where I am expected

I'll go where you go, my country will be you
I'll go where you go, no matter the place
No matter the location

Take your belongings, your dreams
And your life
Your words, your tabernacles, and your language from here
The getaway and the powder and the girl of the air
Show me your Edens, show me your hells
Your north and then your south and your bits of west

In my home the forests sway
And the roofs scratch the sky
The waters of the torrents are violent
And the snow is eternal
In my home the wolves are at our doors
And all the children understand them
We hear the cries of New York
And the boats on the Seine

No matter, I'll go wherever you want
I love your desires, I love your light
All the landscapes resemble you
When you light them up

I'll go where you go, my country will be you
I'll go where you go, no matter the place
No matter the location
