Tombée du nid
J'atterris dans tes bras
Tombée du lit
Quand tu ne veux plus de moi
Tu promets, tu jures
Tu fais le serment parfois
Mais de moins en moins sûre
Quand l'anneau glisse de ton doigt

Je reste à la lisière de toi
Tu restes à l'orée de moi
Quand on s'approche, on s'abîme, on se déchire tout bas
Ça a le goût d'une histoire, mais
Mais c'est bien plus que ça
Quand on se donne on se livre
On se dessine tout bas
On se dessine tout bas

Plonger ensemble
Enroulés dans nos draps
Tout se mélange
Le septième ciel et l'orage
Je promets, je jure
Je fais le serment parfois
Mais de moins en moins sûre
Quand l'anneau brûle mon doigt

Je reste à la lisière de toi
Tu restes à l'orée de moi
Quand on s'approche, on s'abîme, on se déchire tout bas
Ça a le goût d'une histoire, mais
Mais c'est bien plus que ça
Quand on se donne on se livre
On se dessine tout bas
On se dessine tout bas

Je reste
On se dessine tout bas
Yeah yeah yeah, mmm
On se déchire
