Léo Ferré - I love you


Original Title : "Je t'aime"
Year: 1982
I love you
When there is the sea and then the horses
Making rounds like in the movie
But it's way more beautiful in your arms
When there is the sea and then the horses

When reason is wrong
And our eyes play at toppling themselves
And we don't know who is the boss
When reason is wrong

When we'd miss the end of the world
And we'd sell eternity
For that eternal second
When we'd miss the end of the world

When the devil sees us turn pale
When it's not possible to draw anymore
The love flower which is going to open up
When the devil sees us turn pale

When the machine has started
When we are not sure where we are anymore
And we wait to see what is going to happen

I love you

I love you for your voice, for your eyes on the night
Pour those shouts that you shout from the bottom of the pillows
And for that movement of the sea, for your life
That looks like the sea climing up to drown me

I love you for your belly where I'm going to get you
When your eyes look for the night that swings
To my hollow that digs you and from which my hurt life
Runs like a torrent in the bed of the silence

I love you for your open mug over the night
When your sap climbs like from the bottom of the eras
Boils in your belly and that I curse you
To be at the same time my sister, my angel, my light

I love you
When there is the sea and then the horses
Making rounds like in the movie
But it's way more beautiful in your arms
When there is the sea and then the horses

When reason is wrong
And our eyes play at toppling themselves
And we don't know who is the boss
When reason is wrong

When the devil sees us turn pale
When it's not possible to draw anymore
The love flower which is going to open up
When the devil sees us turn pale

When the machine has started
When we are not sure where we are anymore
And we wait to see what is going to happen

I love you
