Âpreté des sons
Tourmente des vents
Mémoire
Qui m'oublie, qui me fuit
Jésus! J'ai peur
Jésus! De l'heure
Qui me ramène
A des songes emportés,
A des mondes oubliés, oh
Jésus! J'ai peur
De la douleur
Des nuits de veille
Mémoire inachevée,
Qui ne sait, où elle naît
Avant que l'ombre, je sais
Ne s'abatte à mes pieds
Pour voir l'autre coté
Je sais que, je sais que, j'ai aimé
Avant que l'ombre, gênée
Ne s'abatte à mes pieds
Pour voir l'autre coté
Je sais que j'aime, je sais que j'ai
Jésus! J'ai peur
Oh! Sésus! seigneur
Suis-je coupable?
Moi qui croyais mon âme
Sanctuaire impénétrable
Jésus! J'ai peur
Jésus! Je meurs
De brûler l'empreinte
Mais laisser le passé redevenir le passé
