He had seen her soon but he didn't come back
She had half believed him waiting for him from glass to glass
Turned around on the docks thinking she heard his footsteps
She was reading to practice all the bottles upside down
She read to practice all the bottles upside down
She only half believed it but she didn't couldn't believe it
To look for him without wanting to, to come across him without surprise
She said to herself I don't care after all what do you think
Never waited for anyone to enter the gray dawn
Never expected anyone to enter the gray dawn
Maritime couriers from Marseille to China
She would like to go around the world with her wandering mind
L the hell of the machines the coralline anchors
Of course she imagines herself complicit and clandestine

He must be fleeing something but she didn't know what
She didn't even know his name, she loved this mystery* especially not to start dreaming anything
She threw all the bottles into the sea for practice
She threw all the bottles into the sea for practice
She had known others but he didn't come back
What did they have in common that was so profound so clear
He was a handsome assassin and yet for months
She read the world map upside down to practice
She read to practice turn the world upside down
Maritime couriers from Marseille to China
She would like to go around the world with her wandering mind
The hell of machines, coralline anchors
Of course she imagines herself complicit and clandestine
