L'Amour Nous Emporte

Close the curtains, my dear
So we can explore the world
In this cozy little space
In the dim light

Once the door is shut
The journey has begun
The boat that carries us
Is in the bedroom

The bed is still anchored
In the bay of our desires
And your top is slipping
As we wait for pleasure

When we cast off the lines
We're swept by the current
While I steer the ship
Your hair flows in the breeze

Love takes us away
Where it wants
When it wants
Love takes us away
Let’s follow it
Just the two of us

Suddenly it sways and rolls
The bed creaks in the wind
And our two hearts, with the waves
Move in sync

It’s a storm in our heads
We’re caught between sky and sea
It’s the wind, it’s the tempest
And you cling to my skin

I whisper, you drift
Love pushes me where I go
Sometimes in the trough of the wave
Sometimes lifted to the peak

But little by little it calms
And at the harbor of our love
It’s a triumphant return
At the hour when day breaks

Love takes us away
Where it wants
When it wants
Love takes us away
Let’s follow it
Just the two of us
