Comme le navire en détresse Accroché à un S.O.S. Comme la flamme qu'on allume Source fragile dans un refuge Comme une prière les yeux fermés Je veux t'aimer Ainsi soit-il Comme le marteau sur l'enclume Lorsque deux corps deviennent adultes Comme l'océan qui se déchaîne Quand une vague vient s'écraser Comme une prière les yeux fermés Je veux t'aimer Ainsi soit-il Même dans un monde interdit Je briserai ma vie pour sauver notre amour Même dans un monde maudit J'épouserai ton ombre pour sauver notre amour Avec la folie entre mes mains Et tous mes rêves pour t'aimer Avec la faiblesse d'une enfant Avec la force du torrent Comme une prière les yeux fermés Je veux t'aimer Ainsi soit-il Même dans un monde interdit Je briserai ma vie pour sauver notre amour Je serai pauvre Tu seras reine Je veux t'aimer Ainsi soit-il
