Tu m'dis toujours
Richard Desjardins Lyrics

Tu m'dis toujours
Tu m'dis toujours
S'cuse-moé mon amour
S'cuse-moé mon amour
J'te dis toujours
J'te dis toujours
Pardonne-moé ma chérie
Le bonheur
Le bonheur
Grelotte dans le beau condo

Dans l'beau condo

On étouffe
On étouffe
À p'tit feu
À p'tit feu
On respire
On respire
Du bout des doigts
Le désir s'pète la tête
Dedans la bay-window
Dans' bay-window

L'amour
L'amour s'défonce
Dans le dead-end
Dans le dead-end
Dans le dead-end
De la vie
