And the storm has passed
Over the still empty village
People have arrived
It's the old dog that guides them
Someone comes forward to meet them
The house is pretty

We introduce ourselves a bit
Here is the child we leave you
Say hello to the gentleman
He has a very thick hand
The lady adjusts her blue collar
How nice it is here

But Nicolas doesn't want to be taken away
All he has in his head
Is that he wants to go home
I don't want to stay here

And then it's the suitcase
That we open in the kitchen
The smell of cold broth
The black cat in the basin
Voices rising along the wall
The room is over here

Finally, it's the goodbyes
That rise to your chest
You have to be reasonable
We promised sandwiches
Tonight you will sleep better
In the middle of the big bed

But Nicolas doesn't want to be taken away
All he has in his head
Is that he wants to go home
I don't want to stay here
