I know
That you've traveled through the prettiest countries
Tasted the finest hotels and big beds
Beside him, the road to happiness is straight
I get it
With me
It's true our bed will be smaller
'Cause I want you closer to my arms
The road to joy will be longer too
Just to grab more time with you
I've got thousands of sweet things to tell you
But no tongue is pretty enough for that
If we say nothing, I won't have trouble holding on
As long as I lay my eyes on
You, you, you
You, you, you
He dressed you in jewels, in finery
In all the priciest stuff around today
You live in the nicest pad on the street
I get it
With me
You don't need all that since nothing dresses you better
We'll live above the world on rooftops
And anyway jewels wear out
The only one that matters will be the ring on your finger
I've got thousands of sweet things to tell you
But no tongue is pretty enough for that
If we say nothing, I won't have trouble holding on
As long as I lay my eyes on
You, you, you
You, you, you
You, you, you
You, you
Just to grab more time with you
I've got thousands of sweet things to tell you
But no tongue is pretty enough for that
If we say nothing, I won't have trouble holding on
As long as I lay my eyes on
You, you, you
You, you, you

SONG MEANING

Imagine choosing between first-class luxury and first-class love. In “Avec Toi”, Amir gently tells a woman who is used to five-star hotels and sparkling jewels that he cannot compete with her wealthy partner’s glitter. Instead, he offers something money cannot buy: closeness, simplicity, and time. He admits their bed will be smaller, their road to happiness a bit longer, yet that is exactly what he wants, because every extra mile gives him more moments wrapped around her.

The song is a warm invitation to trade gold for genuine affection. Amir paints pictures of rooftop sunsets, whispered words that no language can fully capture, and an unbreakable promise symbolized by a single wedding ring. “Avec Toi” celebrates love that feels richer than any treasure, reminding us that sometimes the greatest luxury is simply being with the one who makes you say, again and again, toi, toi, toi.
