Il a remis sur son dos son vieux manteau
coupé dans l’univers des chemins solitaires
avec aux franges des soleils levants
le reflet des rivières qui mènent à l’océan
 
Il a remis sur son dos son vieux manteau
implorant la terre, dévorant les cieux
souffler sur le brasier, chercher l’Oiseau de feu
pour calmer le vertige de tous les adieux
Il veut laisser laisser la route, avoir le dernier mot (bis) 

Il a remis sur son dos son vieux manteau
comme l’étranger qui ne dira jamais mot
de cette femme au regard lointain
celle qu’il a tant aimée qu’il ne peut l’oublier

Il a remis sur son dos son vieux manteau
celui des chants marins et des matins nouveaux
pas question de s’engourdir quand il faut partir

Il veut laisser laisser la route, avoir le dernier mot (bis)
“ Ton manteau je l’achète, money is no object
ton manteau je l’achète, ton prix sera le mien”
mon manteau c’est ma fortune  
j’en fais cadeau au clair de lune

Il s’en va, tourne le dos, balance les bras comme les ailes d’un corbeau.(bis)
Il veut laisser laisser la route, avoir le dernier mot (bis)
