Le Ballet [English translation]

It happens to you without warning

In the middle of a colorless hour

A motion, a smell, a look

Which almost tears your setting

Suddenly this heart that had almost forgotten you

Comes at your door and starts to beat again

Look out, the ballet is about to begin

You don't understand what is happening to you

At first you think about an error.

You avoid him and he figures you out

Between desire and fear

You hear him say sentences without meaning

No matter, words aren't important anymore

Because the ballet has begun

He is decked out in all his finery and with honey on his voice

You, you make yourself velvet and your jewels are bright on you

He tells you some poems and dreams from distant trips

You answer Florence, painting, some impeccable images

Ladies and partners, move forward

A glance to his back, his hips, when the gallantry fades

A look when she bends and lets imagine a breast

She already knows his hands, the outlines of his mouth

The curve of his loins, which she noticed discreetly

Because the ballet is about to come to life

He knew the codes and gave the right passwords

A little more acohol and the shields fall

The keys of bodies delivered, at last the skins embrace

And time stops as long as the grace lasts

Because the ballet, is almost over

And real life, is about to begin

And yes - real life -
