Cover art for Promets moi lyrics by Grégory Lemarchal

This is my favourite of Lemarchal. The translation in English, would be about that:

Promise me

We're going to break our marble bags And then spend it all in one go We'll buy shiny things Whiskey, fudge We'll go on till dawn Even if we make a few detours We will climb over the night

We'll live like there's nobody but us We'll act like we don't see the other people There's a forest with wolves In the fourteenth district First of all we must not talk about love As we ride the night We can go higher than towers Provided that God lends us a bed

Chorus: We should let the sleepwalkers Run on the windowsills Our desires are fragile Yes, today and maybe tomorrow And our hearts are bubbles Flying to the top of the cities Promise me not to promise me anything Promise me not to promise me anything

I was told some people just closed their eyes And embarked on very, very long journeys That's why on summer nights One can see their faces in the clouds

We'll hold hands very tight High on our bodies' skin scent In no time we'll get to know each other well It is important when we fall asleep

Chorus

Promise me not to promise me anything Promise me

We should let the sleepwalkers Run on the windowsills Our desires are fragile Yes, today and maybe tomorrow And our hearts are bubbles The future is useless Promise me not to promise me anything
