James Yorkston the brussels rambler

Select language to translate this lyric

So, so strange and so, so good to see you
What I'd do without a doubt
To relive those long summer weeks
The blaze in the sky showed me up for who I was
Despite my best intentions of dignity
My heroic opening line was stuttered and all wrong
It left you looking foolish but Jesus, your look, so fragile
It's caught me unaware and I so want to hold you
The serious has become hidden
But only in movements and gestures
The Brussels train shook my skeleton, it's long winds?
My threats to derail would amuse me
But I regret every mile I put in between us
The simplest of words, I tried to tell you of your value
But I was tired from the travel
And you'd heard them long before
When we were sure and close
And my wise words you believed
I far regretted every mile I put in between us
