Parfois la nuit quand tout se tait
Je fais des rêves bizarres
Dans l’ombre grise mal réveillée
Je chasse mes démons noirs
Et je pense aux souvenirs
D’une enfance oubliée
Où tous les rires tous les sourires
Coulaient comme du lait
C’est bon c’est toujours bon
C’est toujours aussi fort
La vérité d’un souvenir
C’est qu’il existe encore
J’ai oublié mes audaces
Mais mon cœur se rappelle
La belle confiance déjà tenace
Que m’inspirait un ciel si lourd
Si lourd
Je me souviens d’un vieux bonhomme
Qu’on appelait Plum’patte
Qui savait voir dans l’avenir
Nos vies futures et nos désirs
Il est mort sans rien nous dire
On était bien contents
J’ai pas voulu savoir d’avance
Le destin qui m’attend
Ainsi s’en va la vie
Dans l’air du temps
Comme par magie
Tout paraît évident
Tout vous semble important
Et le silence dans nos mémoires
Se brise et disparaît
Faisant place à un miroir
Que nul ne voudrait voir en vrai
Où personne n’oserait se voir
De peur d’être fané
La lâcheté de cette histoire
C’est que tout le monde le sait
Ainsi s’en va la vie
Dans l’air du temps
Et la folie dérive doucement
Vers un monde évanoui
Petite, va chercher le pain
Surtout ne t’arrête pas en chemin
Enfant, va chercher le vin
Non pas chez celui-là chez l’autre tu sais bien
L’école c’est très bien
Il faut avoir un bagage en main
Il y a toujours un espoir
Et ta mère et moi pensons l’avoir pour toi
Ainsi s’en va la vie
Dans l’air du temps
Ainsi se rit la vie
Je me demande si j’ai raison
Ou si la folie
Est entrée dans ma maison
Comme une litanie
Je voudrais pas qu’elle vienne maintenant
Si elle vient vraiment
Solitude à bon marché
Faudrait pas rêver
Après tout c’est en nous que l’amour est né
Et c’est en nous qu’il meurt
Il nous a tous hypnotisés
Et c’est nous qu’il mord
Avec douceur avec colère
Il nous fait faire en l’air
Tout un tas de tours imaginaires
Comme un acrobate
C’est pas marrant d’être acrobate
Quand on sait pas voler
C’est plus facile d’être automate
Qui peut pas penser
Qu’on peut casser en mille morceaux
Et puis tout balayer
Jeter le tout dans le caniveau
Et tout recommencer
Ainsi s’en va la vie
Ainsi s’en va le temps
Et la folie
Dérive doucement
Ainsi s’en va la vie
Ainsi s’en va le temps.
