lyrics

Q’est' tu fais ici dans la rue sous la pluie
Sous la lune qui reluie?
Q’est' tu fais ici comme un tronc sur la plage
Contre qui se jettent les mirages?
Q’est-ce tu fais ici sans manteau, sans abri?
Est-ce que tu pleures pour lui?

Est-ce que tu pleures?
Est-ce que tu meures?
Est-ce que tu pleures?
Est-ce que tu meures?

Et entre temps on est tout ce qu’on a.
Et entre temps on est tout ce qu’on a.

Si un our j’avais un cheval pour de vrai
J’laisserais tomber les carousels.
Si un jour le sol arrêtait de s’effondrer
J’n’aurais plus besoin d’grimper.

Est-ce que je pleure?
Est-ce que je meure?
Est-ce que je pleure?
Est-ce que je meure?

Et entre temps on est tout ce qu’on a.
Et entre temps on est tout ce qu’on a.

With lyrics rooted in the raw beauty of experience, trilingual-multi-instrumentalist Anne-Marie Williot crafts her songs on guitar and accordion, while double-bassist Patrick Boggs keeps the groove. Natanielle Felicitas joins them on occasion with the rich sounds of her cello. ... more
