Imagine yourself on a street in the city
But with a light that you don't have at home
And this could perhaps be a place to live

I would be far from knowing or saying
If we would see better or worse days
But this could perhaps be a place to live
This could perhaps be a place to live

I am a man of little, I am the son of nothing
They blindfolded me before I saw the path
They never told me to come, they told me to go wherever I want
But I wander quietly, gently useless
I would like to do something, not necessarily easy
I would like to be able to tell you I lived a little for you

It's like a day when we walk

And we feel that it's going well and the wind is carrying you
Where this could perhaps be a place to live
It's all night when we talk outside
About the peaceful dream of a sleeping child
And this could perhaps be a place to live
This could perhaps be a place to live

I should be able to give all the time that I no longer have
That was taken from me without knowing and that was not returned to me
That I lost in the air or that I didn't sell well
I should be able to find in strange moments
Where I understand so well that it's already too late
Something to forget, that I don't have the means to believe in

But I want to keep, even if only for a moment, the impression
Of having been able to raise my voice one day
To sing words in which you will recognize yourself
