Un vieil enfant


Je suis née par un matin calme
Enfant de parents amoureux
J'avais pour compagnon un petit âne
Et je dormais des jours heureux
Soudain je me suis réveillée
Et j'ai vu émerveillée
Le temps qui passe
Les fleurs qui poussent
Le feu la glace le blé la mousse
Maintenant j'avais dix ans
Le joli temps de l'école
Tant de leçons qui s'envolent
Cinq cents mercredis
Et l'école est finie
Me voilà jetée
Dans le grand univers
Où est sa vérité
Est-ce qu'on peut le refaire
Serait-il plus grand
Serait-il moins méchant
Plus juste et plus sage
J'oubliais mon âge
Bien avant les cheveux blancs
J'étais un vieil enfant
On naît tous par un matin calme
A moitié rois à moitié seuls
Les grands-pères boivent des tisanes
Abandonnés dans leur fauteuil
Et soudain tout va très vite
Nos habits d'enfant nous quittent
Et le temps passe
Et la roue tourne
La neige est froide le sable coule
Maintenant on a dix ans
Le joli temps de l'école
Tant de leçons qui s'envolent
Cinq cents mercredis
Et l'école est finie
On veut tout savoir
On s'affaire on s'affole
On se cogne dans le noir
Aux idées aux idoles
On veut toujours gagner
On a l'éternité
Mais on oublie notre âge
A la fin du voyage
Au dernier mot du roman
On n'est qu'un vieil enfant
Au dernier mot du roman
On n'est qu'un vieil enfant
