Terre

Earth
I’ve spent too much time on the road
Hoping for the faint traces you left behind
Earth
If you only knew how much I missed you
Those days without a compass
I often prayed
Earth
What do lovers do when they reunite?
What should I wear tonight?
A hint of perfume?
Some booze or the blues?
Earth
Sweet words that tremble and nest everywhere
Chatty silences
And eyelids against cheeks

And no matter the game, I’ve got what I want
The blue flag
'Cause tonight I’ve touched

Earth
Sanctuary land
On your velvet skin
Slide the ever and the always
Earth
Promised land
The birds remember
Our bodies like flags that wave and love
Earth
Land of fire
With no escape route
And our red embers burn out in turn

Earth
Forgotten the sea of taboo dreams
And the seconds pass a little faster each day
Earth
Well anchored on the ground of your charms
I let the stars guide my arms to your neck
And yours? It’s engraved on my hips
Never again
Never afraid of anything
'Cause tonight I’ve touched

Earth
Sanctuary land
On your velvet skin
In the curves of the end of the day
Earth
Burned land in the language of desire
Dance of the sky, caresses, sharing, and sighs
Earth
Foreign land yet so close
This is where I want to die now

Earth, Earth sanctuary, land of love
Earth, Wild Earth, promised land
