On ne change pas
(Jean-Jacques Goldman)
  We don't change
We don't change
We just put others' costumes on ourselves
We don't change
A jacket only hides a little of what we see
We don't grow
We just get a little taller
During a dream, a little dream
And touch them with the finger

But we don't forget
The child who remains, almost naked
During moments of innocence
When we didn't know

We don't change
We get faces and poses of combat
We don't change
We put ourselves on a false scent, we believe
That we take our choices
But if you scratch there
Very close to the appearance, trembles
A little one who looks like us
We know well that she is there
We hear her sometimes
Her insolent tune
Who insists and repeats
Oh don't leave me

We never forget
We always have a move
Which betrays who we are
A prince, a valet
Under the crown a look
An arrogance, a trait
From a prince or a valet
I know this very well
I copied images
And dreams I had
All those thousands of dreams
But so close to me
A thin little girl
Walks in Charlemagne, worried
And whispers to me

We don't change, we just put
Others' costumes on and that's it
We don't change, we only hide
A moment of ourselves

A little girl
Awkward and alone walks
And dreams in the snows
Forgetting the cold

If I make her up
She disappears a little,
Watching me doing
And making fun of me

A little girl
A very little girl
A very little girl
A very little girl
