Il marche comme s'il avait vingt ans
He walks like he's twenty
Il perd la mémoire par instant
He loses his memory at times
Plus rien ne sera jamais comme avant
Nothing will ever be the same again
Il regarde les autres en chantant
He looks at the others while singing
Le nez au ciel, écharpe au vent
Nose to the sky, scarf to the wind
Il bricole toujours un objet comme avant
He still tinkers with an object like before
Comme avant, comme avant
Like before, like before
Comme avant
Like before
Il marche comme s'il avait vingt ans, comme avant
He walks like he's twenty, like before
Comme avant
Like before
Il se sent pareil et pourtant
He feels the same and yet
C'est sa mémoire qui fout le camp
It's his memory that's gone
Et s'il n'est jamais revenu dans la maison où il a vécu
And if he never came back to the house where he lived
Il cherche ses clés pourtant, comme avant
He's looking for his keys though, like before
Et même s'il n'a pas reconnu
And even if he didn't recognize
Ses enfants quand ils sont venus
His children when they came
Un immense amour l'entoure comme avant
An immense love surrounds him as before
Comme avant, comme avant
Like before, like before
Comme avant
Like before
Il marche comme s'il avait vingt ans, comme avant
He walks like he's twenty, like before
Comme avant
Like before
Il se sent pareil et pourtant
He feels the same and yet
C'est toute sa vie qui fout le camp
It's his whole life that's gone
Comme avant, comme avant
Like before, like before
Non, plus rien ne sera jamais comme avant
No, nothing will ever be the same again
Comme avant
Like before
C'est sa mémoire qui fout le camp
It's his memory that's gone
Mais il marche comme s'il avait vingt ans
But he walks like he's twenty
Comme avant
Like before
S'il ouvre les bras sans raison
If he opens his arms for no reason
Il s'envolera pour de bon
He will fly away for good
Comme dans les dessins de Folon
As in Folon's drawings
