The lyrics to Clémentine & Ainhoa's song "étoile et toi" express a deep and profound connection between two people, where their love for each other becomes the center of their world. The repetition of "étoile et toi" (star and you) throughout the song highlights the idea that the person they love is like a guiding star, always present and illuminating their path. This idea is reinforced by the line "le monde est vous, vous êtes le monde" (the world is you, you are the world), which emphasizes just how much this one person means to them.
The lyrics also convey the idea that love is all-encompassing and all-consuming, with the line "tout ce que je vois, tout ce que je ressens, tu es mon univers" (everything I see, everything I feel, you are my universe).
