[Intro] (female French, smoky, husky) Près de l'Ognon doucement Près de l'Ognon doucement [Verse 1] (male English, warm roots reggae baritone) Morning sunlight on the field Nothing asking to be fixed River rolling through the green Calmest thing I've ever seen Swallows turning in the sky Watching little clouds drift by The old willow leans once more Just like a hundred years before (female French, smoky, husky) À Pont-sur-l'Ognon ce matin Le monde paraît si lointain [Chorus] (male English, warm roots reggae baritone) The world can wait The world can wait By the river just one day The world can wait (female French, smoky, husky) Près de l'Ognon doucement Le monde attend un moment [Verse 2] (male English, warm roots reggae baritone) No more headlines on my mind No more clocks to keep in line Just the breeze and summer light Everything will be alright Watching deer beside the trees Listening to the honeybees The old willow leans once more Just like a hundred years before (female French, smoky, husky) Sous le ciel de l'Ognon La rivière fait sa chanson [Final Chorus] (male English, warm roots reggae baritone) The world can wait The world can wait By the river just one day The world can wait The world can wait The world can wait Nothing's lost and nothing's late The world can wait (female French, smoky, husky) Près de l'Ognon doucement Le monde attend un moment
