Lyrics and translation Procol Harum - Taking the Time (Raw Track / Bonus Track / 2018 Remaster)
I
was
standing
on
the
mountain
top
staring
at
the
sun
J'étais
debout
sur
le
sommet
de
la
montagne,
regardant
le
soleil
I
was
trying
to
act
the
hero's
part
not
fooling
anyone
J'essayais
de
jouer
le
rôle
du
héros,
sans
tromper
personne
I
was
living
for
the
moment
but
the
moment
never
came
Je
vivais
pour
l'instant,
mais
l'instant
n'est
jamais
venu
Taking
notes
and
stealing
quotes,
trying
to
make
a
name
Prendre
des
notes
et
voler
des
citations,
essayer
de
me
faire
un
nom
My
time's
been
taken
with
taking
my
time
Mon
temps
a
été
pris
par
le
fait
de
prendre
mon
temps
By
making
my
mind
up,
yes
to
make
up
my
mind
En
me
décidant,
oui,
pour
me
décider
I
was
living
in
the
country:
I
was
trying
not
to
freeze
Je
vivais
à
la
campagne
: j'essayais
de
ne
pas
geler
I
was
working
on
the
cabbage
plants,
chopping
down
the
trees
Je
travaillais
sur
les
plants
de
choux,
abattant
les
arbres
I
was
learning
how
to
cook
the
goose
and
how
to
milk
the
cow
J'apprenais
à
faire
cuire
l'oie
et
à
traire
la
vache
Taking
out
the
dog
for
walks,
teaching
him
how
to
bow
Sortir
le
chien
pour
des
promenades,
lui
apprendre
à
s'incliner
My
time's
been
taken,
yes,
with
taking
my
time
Mon
temps
a
été
pris,
oui,
par
le
fait
de
prendre
mon
temps
Oh,
I'm
making
my
mind
up
to
make
up
my
mind,
yes
Oh,
je
me
décide
à
me
décider,
oui
Yes,
my
time's
been
taken,
oh,
with
taking
my
time,
yeah
Oui,
mon
temps
a
été
pris,
oh,
par
le
fait
de
prendre
mon
temps,
oui
I'm
making
my
mind
up,
yeah
to
make
up
my
mind
oh...
Je
me
décide,
oui,
à
me
décider,
oh...
