Le sucre et le sel

J’ai compté toutes tes caresses
Et celles qui manquent quand tu n’es pas là
Je sais je n’ai pas de promesse
Mais ma gorge est sèche quand tu t’en vas
Je ne m’en vais pas, mon cœur te reste
Marqué à jamais, d’une place pour toi
Et tous les mots que je te laisse
Sont toujours vivants, sont toujours là

A chaque seconde, à chaque pas

Où as-tu passé ta semaine ?
Embrasse-t-elle aussi bien que moi ?
Je veux déjà que tu reviennes
Dis-moi encore ce que tu dis tout bas

Je ne m’en vais pas, ton coeur commande
Le mien est si grand qu’il ne fait pas de choix
Le sucre et le sel se ressemblent
Mais j’aime les deux, pour toujours, à la fois

A chaque seconde, à chaque pas

Le sucre et le sel se mélangent
Mais il n’y aura plus de goût à la fin
Le sucre et le sel se dérangent
Car dans « je t’aime » il y a
« tu m’appartiens »

Je te veux rien que pour moi
Je n’ sais pas faire de choix
Mais t’aimer ça n’ suffit pas
J’ai assez d’amour pour ça
Je saurai tout te donner
Je vous aime toutes à jamais
Je ne sais pas te partager
Et choisir c’est renoncer
Qu’est-ce qu’elle a que je n’ai pas ?
Même quand je ferme les yeux
Qu’est-ce qu’elle a que je n’ai pas ?
C’est le sucre et le sel que je veux

English

Sugar and Salt

I've counted all the caresses you've given me
And those that I'm missing while you're gone
I know I have don't have your word
But my throat is dry when you're leaving
I won't leave, my heart will stay with you
There will be a place reserved for you until forever
And all the words I'll leave with you
Will be alive forever, will be forever there

At every minute, with every step

Where have you spent your week
Is she as good at kissing as I am
I already want you to come back
Tell me again what you've already told me all quietly

I'm not leaving, your heart is in command
Mine is so big that it won't make a choice
Sugar and salt look alike
But I love them both, forever, at the same time

At every minute, with every step

Sugar and salt will blend together
But in the end there will be no taste left
But sugar and salt will upset each other
Because each "I love you" will also contain a "You're mine"

I want you just for me
I don't know how to make a choice
But just to love you is not enough
I have enough love for all that
I will know how to give you everything
I will love you all until forever
I don't know how to share you
And to choose would be to give up
What does she have what I don't
Even when I close my eyes
What does she have that I don't
It's sugar and salt that I want
