Ashes

Le Charbon a fini de brûler 

T’aimes bien quand je te parle en francais 

Un goût de citron reste sur nos lèvres 

Troi nuits de suite j'espère que tu vas pas te lasser

Ah, t’aurais envie de rester? 

Ici

Jusqu'à demain encore

You make it hard to leave in the morning 

The lazy kisses I could do them all day

Your lips seemed to have been made for mine 

Why else do they fit so perfectly?

Why is my body melting into yours every time we lie down

Like magnets

Is this perfect timing or an awful one? 

Only time will tell
