La Nuit Je Mens
Alain Bashung
I Lie at Night
They saw me in the
Vercors jumping bungee
Amphora thief
At the bottom of the coves
I courted moray eels
I made love, I played dead
You weren't born
At the seaside, you didn't hesitate
I was rough, geyser
I almost dipped
Water story
I lie at night
I take trains across the plain
I lie at night
I wash my hands of it.
I have in my boots
Mountains of questions
Where your echo still lingers
Where your echo still lingers.
I spent the season
In this skull box
Your thoughts, I made them mine
To captivate you, just to captivate you
From stage to stage
I made so many misunderstandings dance
Miles of rose-colored life
One day at the circus
Another trying to please you
Loulou trainer
Aqueduct dynamiter
I lie at night
I take trains across the plain
I lie brazenly
I have in my boots
Mountains of questions
Where your echo still lingers
Where your echo still lingers.
They saw me in the
Vercors jumping bungee
Amphora thief
At the bottom of the coves
I courted moray eels
I made love, I played dead
You weren't born
I lie at night
I take trains across the plain
I lie at night
I wash my hands of it.
I have in my boots mountains of questions
Where your echo still lingers
Where your echo still lingers. I lie at night...
