Dis-moi que tu te couches comme la neige sur la neige n’attendant que neige sur elle. Dis-moi que le seul bruit que tu entends est celui de ton coeur et que la main de cette ombre est tienne. Dis-moi que tu as le loisir d’écouter le sommeil atteler ses rêves et que je suis dans le traîneau Et que c’est mon désir qui t’éveille et que tu cries de mon absence.
