On S'en Remet Jamais

Does the voice we loved so much
Can it one day fall silent
Is everything we couldn't do
Going to dissolve over time

Is everything we promised each other
Lost in a desert
Is there only dust left
Once love is gone

Do you think we ever get over it
We live with it, we pretend
Maybe we never really get over it
We never truly get over it

We never truly get over it
It's a wound under the skin
The icy cold of the knife
All this silence echoing

I dream of drinking your words
You're not so far, not so high
Will the light come back
Will we find sleep again

Will there be a new sun
Someone else who will shine
Do you think we forget
How long must we wait

How many nights to unlearn
To turn in bed
Do you think we ever get over it
We live with it, we pretend

Maybe we never really get over it
We never truly get over it
We never truly get over it
It's a wound under the skin

The icy cold of the knife
All this silence echoing
I dream of drinking your words
You set the bar high enough

I have so much of you under my skin
But orphaned of your words, your words, your words
I still hear your echo
I have all of you in my skin

We never truly get over it
We never truly get over it
We never truly get over it
Not really, not really
Do scents evaporate
Or do they stay in our heads
Like those stars still shining
But far from the party

The footsteps we left in the snow
Gone with the spring
Do our memories protect us
Are they carried away by time
Carried away by time
