Pour un peu de tendresseJe donnerais les diamantsQue
le diable caresseDans mes coffres d'argentPourquoi crois-tu la
belleQue les marins au portVident leurs escarcellesPour offrir
des trésorsA de fausses princessesPour un peu de
tendressePour un peu de tendresseJe changerais de visageJe
changerais d'ivresseJe changerais de langagePourquoi crois-tu la belleQu'au
sommet de leurs chantsEmpereurs et ménestrelsAbandonnent souventPuissances et
richessesPour un peu de tendressePour un peu de
tendresseJe t'offrirais le tempsQu'il reste de jeunesseA l'été
finissantPourquoi crois-tu la belleQue monte ma chansonVers la
claire dentelleQui danse sur ton frontPenché vers ma
détressePour un peu de tendresse
