Quelque Chose

Something tender has risen
Something that haunts us, that pleases us
It's something that digs into us, that melts us
And fits us like a glove

Something tells us it's lost
That we will adore each other without a way out
And that we will devour each other one morning
Something persistently
(Hum hum hum)

But what is this something?
That's the question everyone asks
What is this sweet something there?
What is this jewel from below?

Something pierces us like a blade
Something crosses us, demands us
If we perceive something along the way
We are reduced to nothing

And something capsizes us, holds us back
Yes, something tears us apart, embraces us
And it embraces our heart and body
Again and then yes again
Yes, again

But what is this something?
That's the question everyone asks
What is this sweet something there?
What is this jewel from below?

Something carries us away, wakes us up
Something like a kind of wonder
If you came across something so beautiful
You have to throw everything into the water
Yes, into the water

But what is this something?
That's the question everyone asks
What is this sweet something there?
What is this jewel from below?

But what is this something?
That's the question everyone asks
What is this sweet something there?
What is this jewel from below
