I chanced upon you in the train
You seemed so inclined
To while away the time with me
And so began our little game
Two strangers in a salad bowl
We poked and probed around
It wasn't long before we found
Our share of common ground
A little piece of common ground
Round and round we led our merry dance
Free from the clutches of
Momentary blushes
Along and round the city streets
Of forbidden things we talked
God and sex and politics
Never looking at the clock
On and on right next to you
I took in all the views
Growing closer every step
Lost under the blue
Lost, the endless blue
Round and round we led our merry dance
Free from the clutches of
Momentary blushes
We talked and talked into the night
Beneath the moonlit glare
Our thoughts flowed forth full of flight
Like music in the air
We stopped for dinner and had a drink
Hardly spared a blink
We didn't need to think
It all came out so naturally
As you sat so close to me
Sitting, right next to me
Round and round we led our merry dance
Free from the clutches of
Momentary blushes
You whispered in my ear (Viens par ici)
Took me by the hand (Je t'emmène au loin)
We laid our bodies down (Dans l'obscurité)
Upon the waters of (le fleuve de l'oublie)
The Lethe's soft embrace (l'appel du noir)
We sunk into the cold (le froid du néant)
Into oblivion
Round and round we led our merry dance
Free from the clutches of
Momentary blushes
Time was not an obstacle
Just an afterthought
A mere addition to the scene
My oh my, was it all a dream?
My, a timeless dream
