Lyrics

When these pillars get pulled down

It will be you who wears the crown And I'll owe everything to you

How much pain has cracked your soul? How much love would make you whole? You're my guiding lightning strike

I can't find the words to say They're overdue I'd travel half the world to say "I belong to you"

And she attacks me like a Leo When my heart is split like Rio But I assure you my debts are real

I can't find the words to say When I'm confused I travel half the world to say "You are my muse"

[Mon Cœur S'ouvre à Ta Voix] (My heart opens itself to your voice) Ah! Réponds, (Ah! Respond!) Réponds à ma tendresse (Respond to my tenderness) Verse-moi, verse-moi l'ivresse! (Pour out to me, pour out to me the drunkenness!) Réponds à ma tendresse! (Respond to my tenderness!) Réponds à ma tendresse! (Respond to my tenderness!) Ah! Verse-moi l'ivresse! (Ah! Pour out to me the drunkenness!)

Verse-moi, verse-moi l'ivresse! (Pour out to me, pour out to me the drunkenness!) Réponds à ma tendresse! (Respond to my tenderness!) Réponds à ma tendresse! (Respond to my tenderness!) Ah! Verse-moi l'ivresse! (Ah! Pour out to me the drunkenness!)


I belong I belong to you alone

Woo!

I can't find the words to say They're overdue I traveled half the world to say "I belong to you"
