J'attends toujours ce moment
Où peu à peu s'efface le jour
Pour rejoindre les eaux calmes
Disparaître loin de chez moi.
Mon coeur appartient à la mer
Je voudrais parfois que l'on m'oublie
Pour rejoindre les eaux calmes
Disparaître.
Je préfère aux vacarmes
D'ici-bas la quiétude
Que l'on trouve nageant
Dans le creux des vagues
Les refuges de la mer turquoise
Nous purifiant en ses bras.
Mon coeur appartient à la mer
Je voudrais parfois que l'on m'oublie
Pour rejoindre les eaux calmes
Retourner d'où je viens.
