Between a call and a headache
_____
I let you slip away
_____
We always run off in a rush
_____
How ugly this frenzy is
_____
Let me bring some light into the house
Today I don't even defend myself
_____
Where there used to be the sea now there's only mud
_____
And it's like a waltz on a Sunday in the suburbs
_____
Between the bells and the police sirens
_____
There's a little girl hugging her mother
_____
I feel like a mannequin in a shop window
_____
This life doesn't taste like honey, maybe like aspirin
_____
And I've tried to learn love
But it's always like this
_____
To hold each other at night
In the street even if it rains
Without ever understanding
_____
I gave you a piece of my heart
_____
I tried to learn love
_____
I tried to learn love
But it's stronger than me
_____
The incense that wraps the room
_____
Looks like city fog
_____
A passing bus wakes me up
I think back to a few nights ago
_____
"Kiddo, today I just don't get you"
_____
You're always good at hurting
_____
So many useless words in the wind
_____
To hold each other at night
In the street even if it rains
Without ever understanding
_____
I gave you a piece of my heart
_____
I tried to learn love
_____
I tried to learn love
But it's stronger than me
_____
And you, you seem more confused than me
_____
And you, you said, "It's always like this"
_____
And you, you still have a thousand questions
But they don't hurt anymore
_____
To hold each other at night
_____
In the street even if it rains
Without ever understanding
_____
I gave you a piece of my heart
_____
Now that we've learned love
_____
Now that we've learned love
