about

My son Loïc performed the initial few notes of piano. As he was a 6 years old piano learner, I set to him the challenge of creating a piano part for the album project. A year or so later, he came out with this one idea. He travelled all the way to Krakow and to the studio, sat on the grand piano and performed. We did several takes and he spent that morning with us, acting the kind of cool working attitude we had then... Just recording some stuff ;-), a true little big man !!

Nicolas Dubreil

lyrics

C'est là que finit la route.
Un enfant y marchera un jour depuis Cracovie .
Il s'arrêtera, il remuera son cartable et finira par pleurer.

Puis une dame viendra.
Elle l'entendra sangloter que…
…La voie de chemin de fer est cassée; qu'il ne peut plus retourner chez sa maman.

La dame dira: " tu finiras comme tout le monde !"…
Peut-être ne restera-t-il de lui que son cartable abandonné sur le bord du fossé, à l'abri des herbes hautes et couvert de poussière.

Ce petit gars, c'est… Nous ?
C'est un petit coeur généreux.
Disparaîtra-t-il sur le chemin ?
