Between a call and a headache
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
