J'écoute Edith, sur un phono
Par hasard un disque en mono
La chanson est de Marguerite...
Qui n'a pas connu Gémini
Ni les Minets, ni les mini-
Jupes ou cerveaux qu'on nous débite
Je connais la chanson par cœur
Je ne vois pas pourquoi j'ai peur
Soudain d'apprendre quelque chose
De tragique et bête à la fois
Qui n'existait pas autrefois
Quand tu chantais "La vie en rose".
Cela ne dépend pas de moi
Tu chantes de la même voix
Que tu as gravée dans la cire
La chose est arrivée depuis
Chez les vivants qui t'ont conduite
Où l'on éclate plus de rire...
En quoi cet instant de salut
A deux refrains qui m'avaient plu
Peut-il jeter en moi ce trouble
Qui me laisse désemparé
Comme si j'avais comparé
Du Pommard avec du Chirouble...
Edith, les enfants n'ont de toi
Qu'une image tenue parfois
De myopes intermédiaires...
Et ils ne sauront jamais plus
Ce que c'est que d'avoir perdu
Sa lumière dans ta lumière...
Que de t'avoir donné la main
Ou le cœur un bout de chemin
Que d'avoir effleuré ton rêve...
Ils n'entendront que les échos
Déformés de tous les bancos
De ton existence trop brève...
On est libre étant cabotin
D'améliorer son picotin
Avec des revers de médaille...
Chacun s'arrange à sa façon,
Souviens toi de Reims, de Soissons
Et du cirque à tes funérailles...
On force un peu plus simplement
On vend son papa sa maman
Avec plus ou moins d'aptitudes
On a du monde autour de soi
Ce n'est pas toujours avec joie
Que l'on manque de rectitude.
Heureux sont ceux qui ont brillé
Edith, dans ton rêve éveillé
C'est une merveilleuse histoire
Lorsque l'on a rien qu'une fois
Eut le droit de poser le bras
Sur la soie de ta robe noire...
Tu n'as pas connu Gémini
Ni les minets ni le mini-
Jupes ou cerveaux qu'on nous débite
Mais tu chantes sur mon phono
Par hasard un disque en mono...
La chanson est de Marguerite
Serge Reggiani (Sergio Reggiani), born in Milan on March 26, 1920, and died in Paris on February 18, 1994, was an Italian-born French singer and actor. After debuting as a singer in Italy in the 1940s, he moved to France in 1950, where he achieved great success with songs like "La vie en rose" and "Les Feuilles mortes". Reggiani was a performer of great elegance and sensitivity, capable of spanning from jazz to French chanson and operetta. He collaborated with important French composers such as Jacques Prévert and Charles Aznavour. Among his most notable albums are "Serge Reggiani chante Prévert" (1960) and "Les Feuilles mortes" (1962). Besides music, Reggiani also dedicated himself to cinema, acting in several French films.
