I asked the moon
_____
And the sun doesn't know
_____
I showed it my burns
_____
And the moon laughed at me
_____
And since the sky didn't look proud
_____
And I wasn't healing
_____
I said to myself, 'what bad luck'
_____
And besides, Coluche isn't here anymore
_____
Does France still want me
_____
She told me, 'I'm not used to it'
_____
'Taking care of cases like this'
_____
But sometimes we told ourselves
_____
That if winter's harsh tomorrow
_____
Will the restos still be there?
_____
We didn't come to tell you
_____
That all we need to do is sing
_____
For a plate and a smile
_____
It takes thousands of b*stards
_____
We just came to tell you
_____
That dreaming isn't enough
_____
For a plate and a smile
_____
It takes thousands of b*stards
_____
And the sun doesn't know
_____
I showed it my burns
_____
And the moon laughed at me
_____
And since the sky didn't look proud
_____
And I wasn't healing
_____
I said to myself, what bad luck
_____
And besides Coluche isn't here anymore
We don't ask for the moon

_____
We don't ask for the moon
We don't ask for the moon
We don't ask for the moon

We don't ask for the moon
