À Contretemps
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
À la terrasse,dans le vent,
Des péripéties,des instants,
Qui font que l'on se sent vivant,
Qu'on aimerait vivre à présent
Aux heures perdues il y a longtemps,
On aime à penser maintenant,
On en sourit et légèrement,
Nos yeux se ferment inconsciemment
Refrain:
J'ai voulu garder les yeux secs,
Et notre vie à contretemps.
Les chaises vides, de désarroi,
D'un hiver qui parle de moi,
Du précipice de mes émois,
Et de la vie malgré tout ça
Je laisse cette terrasse derrière moi,
Et avec elle je ne sais quoi,
Je la laisse là sans un éclat,
Sans avoir ce qu'il y a devant moi
Refrain 6x
