Jacques Lamure is a[00:00:03]

Volunteer fireman[00:00:05]

He longs to give his life[00:00:10]

Saving a nice old man and his wife[00:00:13]

When their house is[00:00:17]

Filled with flames[00:00:18]

Earning him honor and fame[00:00:21]

Jacques Lamure is a foreman[00:00:25]

At a clock factory[00:00:28]

He wishes he were boss[00:00:32]

So he could fire that scoundrel William Moss[00:00:35]

Who always puts him down[00:00:39]

When Megan Blanchard is around[00:00:43]

He told himself last year[00:00:47]

That when springtime was here[00:00:48]

He would suddenly appear at Meg's door[00:00:50]

He'd rent a mariachi band and respectfully demand[00:00:54]

His dear Meg to take his hand[00:00:57]

And to be his forever more[00:00:59]

But of course he didn't dare[00:01:03]

And pretended not to care[00:01:05]

About the insult or the loss[00:01:08]

When he found out she'd married William Moss[00:01:12]

Jacques Lamure goes to see a show[00:01:25]

Every other Friday night[00:01:28]

He likes the westerns best[00:01:33]

He'd rather be a sheriff with a gold star on his chest[00:01:35]

Than that weird guy who never says a word[00:01:39]

And when spoken to pretends he hadn't heard[00:01:43]

He realized one day that he didn't have to stay[00:01:46]

That he could move as far away as planes could fly[00:01:50]

He chuckled as he mused[00:01:54]

About the people who had rused him[00:01:56]

And how shocked and confused that they would be[00:01:58]

When he says goodbye and never turns around[00:02:00]

Never returns to that miserable town[00:02:05]

Then as weeks passed he soon did find[00:02:07]

This move had greatly improved his state of mind[00:02:12]
