Alouette uette uette
Alouette uette uette
Alouette uette uette
Déployer l’aile
In my beginning there was nothing so empty in the space between
And you came in turned the lights on and created what it’s came to be
Before I pluck your wings cover me please spread your wings cover me and
Promise this if I die before I wake oh
Promise this take a time to say your grace
On your knees you pray for me
Promise this be the last to kiss my lips
Alouette uette uette
Alouette uette uette
Alouette uette uette
Déployer l’aile (x2)
Though I’m walking through the shadows you are with me and you comfort me
Lay me down now time for sleeping but before that would you…on me
Before I pluck your wings cover me please spread your wings cover me and
Promise this if I die before I wake oh
Promise this take a time to say your grace
On your knees you pray for me
Promise this be the last to kiss my lips
Alouette uette uette
Alouette uette uette
Alouette uette uette

By a thread we’re hanging on
In the hope you don’t let go
If you ever leave me
No, I wanna go with you
Promise this if I die before I wake oh
Promise this take a time to say your grace
On your knees you pray for me
Promise this be the last to kiss my lips
