Kid of Paris

Kid of Paris
To kiss
We don't have a room
No money
Not even a bed
Even a broken one
Just a patch of green grass
Far from everything
But it was there that in the night
We heard the big wild trains screaming
Racing towards the unknown, racing without us
Carrying our hearts to the islands
 
Kid of Paris,
We cried
On a station platform
My friend,
Detaching
Our clutched hands
Above all a romance
Of Paris
 
I shouldn't have gone
I shouldn't have left you
We should have been content
With the happiness of four sous
 
Only you
Only me
Only us
You know,
Kid of Paris,
It was promised
Not my heart
Nor my lips
Have lied
If I never wrote to you
It's because the lucky star
Betrayed me
Believe me, I did what I could
But we will not see the treasure island
Far too many years have fallen over me
Too much time far from you but whatever
 
Kid of Paris,
Kid of my street,
Shadow among shadows
Of the suburb
I still love you
Lost friend
Of my first childhood
My love
