I wrote this track many years ago. The inspiration comes from a quote by Anatole France: 'it is not customary to love what one has'.
lyrics
Mon Ame
Quand je t'ai oublié, tout ce que tu es, sans hésiter
Quand je l'embrasse, sans avoir l'intention d'un aveu
Quand je rêve de lui, même si je suis couchée à côté de toi
l'apparence s'écroule comme un château de cartes
Les souvenirs sont voilés, par une toile d'araignée
Histoire de revenants, une ville fantôme
je veux m'en aller à grands pas
mais il ya quelque-chose qui m'empêche
peut-être je retrouverais mon âme.
