But those aren't the French lyrics on the original recording -- the "concept album," if you will. Those are the lyrics to which I was referring. The original version begins, "J'avais rêvé d'une autre vie Mais la vie a tué ma rêve Comme on étouffe les derniers cris D'un animal que l'on achève J'avais rêvé d'un coeur si grand Que le mien puisse y trouver place Mais mon premier prince charmant Fut l'assassin de mon enfance Which roughly translated means, "I had dreamed of another life, But life has killed my dream. As one smothers the final cries Of an animal that one has killed. I had dreamed of a heart so big That my own could find a place within it, But my first prince charming Was the assassin of my youth." The original French version doesn't have any reference to wolves (or tigers).
