Le Temps Qui Passe

When the clear water turns dark and it’s pitch black
When the road isn’t long anymore, and it starts to show
When the fire barely burns or it goes out
It’s that one day we’re no longer who we used to be
When the child no longer does what you say
It’s that one day, you gotta understand they’ve grown up
When the glass falls to the ground and it shatters
When you can’t put back together what you’ve broken

I see you,
You’re not like you used to be
Don’t cry
It’s the time that passes

You won’t find the past again
Because a wrinkle is just a sign
Live and don’t try to be young again
Because against time, you can’t fight
