Quand tu n'es pas là
Tous les oiseaux du monde
Quand tu n'es pas là
S'arrêtent de chanter
Et se mettent à pleurer
Larmes de pluie au ciel d'été
Quand tu n'es pas là
Le silence qui gronde
Me donne si froid
Qu'un jour ensoleillé
Me fait presque pleurer
Larmes d'ennui malgré l'été
La ville fait des grâces
La lune des grimaces
Qui me laissent sans joie
Les cantiques d'églises,
Malgré tout ce qu'ils disent,
Me font perdre la foi
Quand tu n'es pas là
Tous les oiseaux du monde
La nuit, sur mon toit
Viennent se rassembler
Et pour me consoler
Chantent tout bas
"Elle reviendra"
Quand tu reviendras
De l'autre bout du monde
Quand tu reviendras
Les oiseaux dans le ciel
Pourront battre des ailes
Chanter de joie
Lorsque tu reviendras !
