Je me souviens d'un coin de rue
Aujourd'hui disparu
Mon enfance jouait par là
Je me souviens de cela
Il y avait un' palissade
Un taillis d'embuscades
Les voyous de mon quartier
Venaient s'y batailler
À présent il y a un café
Un comptoir tout neuf qui fait de l'effet
Une fleuriste qui vend ses fleurs aux amants
Et même aux enterrements
Je revois mon coin de rue
Aujourd'hui disparu
Je me souviens d'un triste soir
Où le cœur sans espoir
Je pleurais en attendant
Un amour de quinze ans
Un amour qui fut perdu
Juste à ce coin de rue
Et depuis j'ai beaucoup voyagé
Trop souvent en pays étrangers
Mondes neufs constructions et démolitions
Vous me donnez des visions
Je crois voir mon coin de rue
Et soudain apparus
Je revois ma palissade
Mes copains mes glissades
Mes deux sous de muguet de printemps
Mes quinze ans… mes vingt ans
Tout ce qui fut et qui n'est plus
Tout mon vieux coin de rue.
