Voilà que l'on se cache
Quand se lève le vent
De peur qu'il ne nous pousse
Vers des combats trop rudes
Voilà que l'on se cache
Dans chaque amour naissant
Qui nous dit après l'autre
Je suis la certitude
Voilà que l'on se cache
Que notre ombre un instant
Pour mieux fuir l'inquiétude
Soit l'ombre d'un enfant
L'ombre des habitudes
Qu'on a plantées en nous
Quand nous avions vingt ans
Serait-il impossible de vivre debout
Voilà qu'on s'agenouille
D'être à moitié tombé
Sous l'incroyable poids
De nos croix illusoires
Voilà qu'on s'agenouille
Et déjà retombé
Pour avoir été grand
L'espace d'un miroir
Voilà qu'on s'agenouille
Alors que notre espoir
Se réduit à prier
Alors qu'il est trop tard
Qu'on ne peut plus gagner
A tous ces rendez-vous
Que nous avons manqués
Serait-il impossible de vivre debout
Voilà que l'on se couche
Pour la moindre amourette
Pour la moindre fleurette
A qui l'on dit toujours
Voilà que l'on se couche
Pour mieux perdre la tête
Pour mieux brûler l'ennui
A des reflets d'amour
Voilà que l'on se couche
De l'envie qui s'arrête
De prolonger le jour
Pour mieux faire notre cour
A la mort qui s'apprête
Pour être jusqu'au bout
Notre propre défaite
Serait-il impossible de vivre debout
Jacques Romain Georges Brel (Schaerbeek, April 8, 1929 – Los Angeles, October 9, 1978) was a Belgian singer-songwriter, composer, actor, and poet who wrote in French.
