Lyrics L'océan Dominique A

 1.150

L'océan


On l'entendait de loin s'écraser contre terre
Ecumer de colère d'être ainsi rejeté
Au pied de pauvres dunes, sur d'indignes rochers
Lui pourtant si puissant, pourtant si volontaire

On courait sur les dunes et il apparaissait
Et parfois il daignait nous couvrir d'écume
Un de ces jours bleu gris où sa colère montait
Contre la terre et les humeurs bde la lune

L'océan

Il n'en finissait pas comme la vie lointaine
Qu'on aurait quand plus tard il faudrait être vieux
Il n'en finissait pas comme les mille semaines
Quand septembre passait et s'éteignaient tous les feux

Les feux que l'eau salée attisait en nous-mêmes
Que les enfants d'Eole entretenaient furieux
Cette douce violence qui nous brûlait les yeux
Dès qu'on entrait en lui et qu'il noyait nos peines

L'océan
Si ma ligne de vie venait à se casser
J'aimerais pour finir avoir encore le temps
De monter sur la dune et le voir écumer
J'aimerais pour finir regarder l'océan
Comme lorsque l'on courait et qu'il apparaissait
Et qu'on criait de joie, ivres de sa colère
On ne le craignait pas et nous en étions fiers
C'était la même colère qui en nous s'élevait

L'océan

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
