lyrics

the little prince and the fox

fox:

sun has come
the sun has come to shine
i know your name
and now you know mine

i saw you descending from the stars
you asked to befriend me
i said you don’t know
where you are

little prince:

oh, dear fox
the orange-red of a sunset
will now make me think of
your orange-red fur

oh, dear fox
don’t you find it a mystery
that up in the stars there
a rose waits for me?

all this comes that you taught me to tame
now that i’ve tamed you
to me you are unique
among thousands of foxes

fox:

look at all
all these thousands of flowers
yet only one
has received your hours

now you know the secret place of joy
without taking time
one doesn’t find out
what is most important

little prince:

yes my friend
you have helped me to find
that what is essential
goes unseen by the eye

yes my friend
and now it’s time that i go
and i will not forget
what you have shown me

little prince & fox:

eyes they only see the outer shell
eyes they only see the outer shell

little prince:

now that i’ve tamed you
i can see beyond
your nose ears and tail
