La longue échelle


Au-dessus des lilas
De la porte, en bas
De la tour Nord
Dans un vieux château-fort
Au fond d'un bois noir
De mauvais sorts

Ce qu'on y voit
Là-haut, par la fenêtre
C'est un livre posé
Rouge, et rehaussé
De filets d'or

Voilà bien des années
Qu'il reste oublié
Sur l'étagère
De là, notre misère
Dont tout le mystère
Voici la clé

Vivait alors
Allant de page en page
Tout un monde enchanté
Qui s'est arrêté
Le geste en l'air

{Refrain:}
Qui prendra la longue échelle au prix d'un peu d'effort ?
Qui viendra ouvrir le livre où vont nos destins ?
Qui voudra tourner les pages qui nous restent encore
Pour que vive alors notre histoire jusqu'à la fin ?

Dames endimanchées
Chevaliers rouillés
Se désespèrent
Dans un livre fermé
Où peut-on aller ?
Que peut-on faire ?

Et du haut jusqu'en bas
Des greniers aux cuisines
Tourne sans s'arrêter
La chanson usée
Du vieux trouvère

{au Refrain}

À la page marquée
D'un angle plié
Tout se libère
Nous attendons derrière
Un roi, deux jokers
Et trois belles fées

Ouvrez-nous voir
Et nous reprendrons vie
À l'heure où les dragons
S'endorment et vont
Les enfants au lit

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
