Il fut un temps
j'étais une fleur
je vivais parmi d'autres fleurs
de toutes les couleurs
on m'a trouvé
on m'a cueillie
et on m'a promis, le bonheur
arrosé
réchauffé
puis exposé
dans le plus beau des musées
une caresse, chaque soir
avant de dormir
on m'a donné
on m'a aimé
et j'ai poussé
encore plus grande
toujours plus forte
et j'ai fleuri
encore plus vive
toujours plus belle
x2
toujours plus belle
et puis, un soir
plus d'arrosoir
pour m'arroser
ni me parler
ni me toucher
et puis un autre soir
et puis un autre soir
et puis un autre soir,encore
on m'avais délaissé
et c'est ainsi
que j'ai cessé de pousser
jamais plus grande
jamais plus forte
et c'est ainsi, fanée,flétrie
si attristée
si effacée
x2
si effacée
il n'y a pas si longtemps
j'étais une fleur
si heureuse
parmi toutes les fleurs
si heureuse
parmi toutes les fleurs
de toutes les couleurs.
