Description

This sound conveys fatigue and tenderness, tangled like headphones in a pocket. Outside, there is a party, rhythm, non-stop movement. Inside, there is a desire to simply breathe out next to someone alive. Here, love does not sound loud, but like a message sent hastily before a flight: ‘Let's go for a walk while I'm still here.’

He seems to say ‘bébé,’ but there is no flirtation in his voice, only regret. Between the lines is the anxiety that time is running out and the connection is becoming digital and fragile. The music flows smoothly, as if the night itself is rocking the city to the beat, and all that remains is to catch this brief moment before having to leave again.

Lyrics and translation

Original

Ça fume dans le fond de la poche. Ce soir, j'sais pas où j'crèche.

Elle veut casser la distance. Elle a trop peur que j'lui dise non.

Elle a moins peur des coups de soleil que des premiers signes d'épuisement.

Mmm.

Bah ouais, j'ai pas de limites. À peine commencé, tu m'en confines.

J'suis discret, j'suis pas timide. C'est toi qui dis quand est-ce qu'on finit.

J'accélère, j'peux plus freiner.

J'peux plus revenir. Chaque déplacement est défraié.

Genre, tu m'exploites, j'ai frayé.

Bébé, j't'emmène faire une balade parce que demain j'serai pas là.

M'en veux pas.

Bébé, j't'emmène faire une balade parce que demain j'serai pas là. Mmm.

J'ai plus qu'un regard pour toi.

Mais t'as plus les yeux pour moi. J'passe la nuit le temps d'un soupir.

-J'délirais vers toi.

-Attiré par tout ce qui est pas comme moi, mais j't'en voudrais jamais d'être pas comme nous.

Tu m'as ramené des bons moments, mais maintenant, tu peux remballer tout.

Est-ce que t'as la même main que moi à ton poignet? Ton téléphone ne cesse de sonner, témoigner.

Et tu m'as vu sur les réseaux te donner plus que des raisons de m'aimer moins qu'la raison. Ah yeah.

Te sentir plus légère quand j'te dis que tu fais ni partie de mon printemps ni de l'été.

Mmm. Bébé, j't'emmène faire une balade parce que demain j'serai pas là.

M'en veux pas.

Bébé, j't'emmène faire une balade parce que demain j'serai pas là.

Mmm.

J'ai plus qu'un regard pour toi.

Mais t'as plus les yeux pour moi. J'passe la nuit le temps d'un soupir.

J'délirais vers toi.

J'ai plus qu'un regard pour toi.

Mais t'as plus les yeux pour moi.

J'passe la nuit le temps d'un soupir, la tête pleine de souvenirs.

J'délirais vers toi.

Mais t'as plus les yeux pour moi.

La tête pleine de souvenirs.

J'délirais vers toi

English translation

It's smoking at the bottom of the pocket. This evening, I don't know where I'm staying.

She wants to break the distance. She's too afraid that I'll say no to her.

She is less afraid of sunburn than of the first signs of exhaustion.

Hmm.

Well yeah, I have no limits. Barely started, you confine me.

I'm discreet, I'm not shy. You say when do we finish.

I accelerate, I can't brake anymore.

I can't come back anymore. Each trip is paid for.

Like, you're exploiting me, I've been exploited.

Baby, I'm taking you for a walk because I won't be there tomorrow.

Don't blame me.

Baby, I'm taking you for a walk because I won't be there tomorrow. Hmm.

I have more than one look for you.

But you don't have eyes for me anymore. I spend the night in the time of a sigh.

-I was raving about you.

-Attracted to everything that is not like me, but I would never blame you for not being like us.

You brought back some good times, but now you can pack it all up.

Do you have the same hand as me on your wrist? Your phone keeps ringing, testify.

And you saw me on the networks giving you more than enough reasons to love me less than reason. Oh yeah.

Feel lighter when I tell you that you are neither part of my spring nor my summer.

Hmm. Baby, I'm taking you for a walk because I won't be there tomorrow.

Don't blame me.

Baby, I'm taking you for a walk because I won't be there tomorrow.

Hmm.

I have more than one look for you.

But you don't have eyes for me anymore. I spend the night in the time of a sigh.

I raved about you.

I have more than one look for you.

But you don't have eyes for me anymore.

I spend the night with a sigh, my head full of memories.

I raved about you.

But you don't have eyes for me anymore.

Head full of memories.

I raved about you
