Même pus l’courage d’y penser
Tout l’monde a tellement besoin d’juger
Ben qu’ils m’prennent pour un fou
Moi c’est avec toi que j’voudrais décoller
Je reviens d’une semaine de shows
La Gaspésie c’est vrai que c’est beau
J’peux te rêver en silence mais t’aimer
Sans le crier c’est après me tuer
J’pense que j’déraisonne quand j’te vois me regarder
Que mon sourire goûte meilleur quand t’es là
Que l’apesanteur nous prend dans ses bras
Si j’détonne quand j’te parle
C’est qu’j’oublie l’reste du monde entier
J’ai pus l’temps de pus m’écouter
De faire semblant de prendre mon pied
Et que tous mes remords prennent le bord
À partir de tout de suite c’est mon cœur
Qui prend l’contrôle du fort
J’ai fini de ramer contre le courant
De me dire tout bas de prendre mon temps
Enjôle-moi chaque fois que tu voudras
On s’enferme où tu veux pis on oublie la clé du cadenas
J’pense que j’déraisonne quand j’te vois me regarder
Mon sourire goûte meilleur quand t’es là
Que l’apesanteur nous prend dans ses bras
Si j’détonne quand j’te parle
C’est qu’j’oublie l’reste du monde entier
J’cours à ma perte si je redeviens c’que j’suis pas
J’pourrai me dire que j’t’aimais gros comme ça
Mais là c’est l’matin pis t’es déjà belle
Si j’me fous des lendemains quand tu m’aimes
J’me pète les bretelles
J’pense que j’déraisonne quand j’te vois me regarder
Mon sourire goûte meilleur quand t’es là
Que l’apesanteur nous prend dans ses bras
Si j’détonne quand j’te parle
C’est qu’j’oublie l’reste du monde entier
The song "La maison est grande" by Kain is a French-language track that portrays the singer's obsession and infatuation with someone. The song is about a man who is too busy and caught up in his life to give love a chance. He has no time to even think about relationships until he meets someone who takes his breath away. He is wary about getting into a relationship because he is afraid of being judged by others; however, he longs to be with this person and wishes to take off with this person to some secret place. The song's lyrics express feelings of hopelessness, longing, infatuation, and the desire to escape from the world.
The singer reflects on his state of mind as he returns home from a series of shows he had just completed. He longs to be with his love, but he can only dream of her because he is not brave enough to confess his feelings. He worries that revealing his feelings would spell disaster for him. To him, the world seems judgemental, and he feels his love would be mocked and ridiculed. Despite his fear, he can't help but feel giddy whenever he's around her.
The song's lyrics clearly portray infatuation and the desire to escape from the real world. It showcases the singer's willingness to take risks and live in the moment without thinking about the consequences. The song is a tale of the ups and downs of love and the fear that holds people back from chasing it.
