Nicolas

No, it's just a song that comes back sometimes
Just a smile, in memory of a boy from long ago
When my days are gray
Let it snow on my life, it comes back to my memory
At the French high school one evening he was waiting for me
Nicolas smiled

Nicolas, Nicolas, my first tear was only for you
We were children, our pain was worth that of the adults
Nicolas, Nicolas, it was love, we didn't know it
It's life that takes us
Who takes us where she wants and where she goes

A childlike man, with eyes too big, on a platform, crying
It has snowed, a lot since then, over there, over Paris
And he knows nothing about me and my life
What I do, who I am
He doesn't know the other Maritza, he keeps the real one there

Nicolas, Nicolas, my first sorrow is called like you
I knew that I would never come back here to you
Nicolas, Nicolas it was love, we didn't know it
It's time, which is going away
Who invents all our sorrows and our joys
Nicolas, Nicolas, my first tear was only for you
We were children, our pain was worth that of the adults
Nicolas, Nicolas, it was love, we didn't know it
It's life that takes us
Who takes us where she wants and where she goes
Nicolas, Nicolas
