We don´t change We simply put other´s costumes on ourselves We don´t change A jacket simply hides a little of what we see We do not grow
We simply get a little taller, no more The time of a dream, of a little dream And touch them with the finger
But we don´t forget The child that stays, almost naked The moments of the innocence When we didn´t know
We don´t change We get faces and poses of combat We don´t change We reply to each other, we believe That we do choices But if you scratch there Very close to the apperance, shivers A little one who looks like us
We know he is there We hear it sometimes Its insolent old tune Which insists and repeats itself Oh, don´t leave me
We never forget We always have a move Qui trahit who we are A prince, a valet Under the crown a look An arrogance, a trait Of a prince, of a valet I know that very well I copied images And dreams I had All those thousands dreams But so close to me
A small thin girl Walks in Charlemagne, worried And whispers to me
We don´t change, we simply put on Costumes from others and that´s it We don´t change, we only hide A moment of ourselves
A little girl Ungrateful and alone walks And dreams in the snows Forgetting the cold
If I paint her She disappears a little
Just long enough to watch me doing And make fun of me Une petite fille
A little girl A very little girl A very little girl A very little girl
