lyrics

Les filles de l’air sont si légères
Qu’elles semblent vouloir quitter la terre,
Échapper à la pesanteur
Ne plus avoir de hauts-le-cœur.

Sylphides, corps translucides,
Le vide est si avide.

Les filles de l’air sont sans désir
Ou n’arrivent pas à s'en saisir,
Elles papillonnent de lèvres en lèvres
Mais en amour se mettent en grève.

Les filles de l’air ne mangent rien
Mais cependant n’ont jamais faim.
Elle se dévorent dans le miroir
Déformant de leur doux regard.

Les filles de l’air sont si fragiles
Que leur vie ne tient qu’à un fil
De funambule où elles avancent
Sans filet et sans assurance.
