L'amour à la machine
Alain Souchon
Love in the Machine
Run our love through the machine
Boil it up
To see if the original colors
Can come back
Can we bleach out
These feelings
The whiteness we thought was eternal
Before?
To get back the original pink
Of your now pale cheek
The blue of our early kisses
So much lost azure
Run our love through the machine
Boil it up
To see if the original colors
Can come back
Can we bleach out
These feelings
The whiteness we thought was eternal
Before?
Matisse, love is a tough blue
Fragile red caresses
Life's sun beats them down
And then, they fade away
Come on! To the machine!!
Red to wash away the misery
Of our sweet little grandpas
Black hands in blonde curls
All around the world
Run our love through the machine
Boil it up
To see if the original colors
Can come back
Can we bleach out
These feelings
The whiteness we thought was eternal
Before?
Come on! To the machine!!
