Prends-moi
Catherine Ringer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Je sais que tu m'écoutes.
Tu ne prendras pas ta guitare, ce soir,
Tu me prendras moi.
Moi qui prends si bien,
Qui prends, qui prends si bien la lumière,
Aux heures tendres, à mon grain de peau.
Tu ne prendras pas ta voiture,
C'est sûr, tu me prendras moi.
Moi qui rends si bien tes caresses.
Aux heures tendres,
La bête à deux dos
Aime entendre les mots les plus chauds.
Même si je te prends toi aussi,
Toi qui mens si bien
Qui m’en, qui m'ensorcelles d'un sourire.
Aux heures où tremble mon Cadiot
Qu'on est ensemble, même si c'est faux...
Hé, ce soir tu ne prendras pas ta guitare
Car tu me prendras moi, moi...
Je vais pleurer si tu t’barres
Ce soir, on va s’aimer encore
Comme tant de fois, où on s’adore
Allez, prends-moi dans tes bras
The lyrics of Catherine Ringer’s song Prends-moi are quite erotic and suggestive, with a play on the meaning of the phrase “prends-moi” which can be translated as “take me”. The song seems to be about desire, passion, and the power dynamic between two lovers where one is the dominant figure and the other is submissive. The song starts with the singer asking if their partner is listening, knowing that they are paying attention. The singer then tells their partner that they won’t need to take their guitar tonight, they will take them instead. This means that the singer wants their partner to focus on them, their body, and their desires, rather than on music or anything else.
The next verse talks about the singer’s body, how it takes the light so well, especially during the tender hours of the day. This indicates that they want their partner to admire and appreciate their body, to see and appreciate the beauty of it. The singer then tells their partner not to take their car because they will take them instead. The singer seems to suggest that they are the only thing that their partner needs, and that they can fulfill their every desire. The singer goes on to say that they know how to respond to their partner’s touch and that they like to hear seductive words during their intimate moments.
The final verse refers to the singer’s vulnerability, mentioning that they will cry if their partner leaves. However, they want to focus on the love between them at that moment. They want their partner to embrace them and to make love to them. The song symbolizes the complexity of the relationship between the two lovers and how their passions and desires take over, allowing them to be vulnerable and uninhibited.
