In the dark of night
the flicker of a light
The echo of your voice
Reflected far and bright
It calls for me
It calls for me
I never thought someone
Would flip my world upright
I’ve been down for so long
I’d lost the will to fight
But you called for me
You called for me
Dans l’ouragan
de tes rêves innocents
qui noie mon âme noire
Je cueille mon destin
dans le creux de tes mains
comme le jour au matin
You and I we flow
You set my heart alight
Steady as we go
Revived my spark my sight
It calls for me
It calls for me
I see through your eyes
The promise of delights
Deep inside my soul
The fire reignites
It calls for me
It calls for me
Comme un secret
dans la vague qui avance
à la nage dans la nuit
la plus longue la plus sombre
En silence
T’es arrivée
Une lame de fond qui remonte
T’as renversé mes marées
T’as fait détoner les bombes
The riptide takes me away
Further than I’ve ever been now
The riptide takes me away
Further than I’ve ever been before
Further than I’ve ever been before
