Je tremble de passion comme une feuille au moindre frisson 
Quand tu es là, tout près de moi 
L'amour est un poison que je consomme avec déraison, 
Rien que pour toi, rien que pour toi 
Comme une hirondelle en pleine tempête tu es le soleil qui sèche mes ailes 
Je te veux toi, rien que pour moi 
Longtemps j'ai attendu et maintenant l'heure est venue de t'avouer 
Tout l'amour que j'ai pour toi 

Je m'éteins comme une flamme 
Lorsque j'entends ta voix 
Je frissonne d'amour quand je sens 
Ton souffle derrière moi 
Tu me rends fou, je ne peux plus penser 
Lorsque j'entends ta voix 
Je succombe quand tu laisses ta main 
Posée sur moi comme ça 

Ne détourne pas les yeux 
Mon cœur vois-tu ne bat que pour eux 
Et toute la nuit, je ne vois qu'eux 
Je donnerais ma vie pour être celui pour qui tu réserves 
Toute ta tendresse, toutes tes caresses 
Tous mes rêves m'emmènent auprès de toi 
Mon cœur t'a choisi, ne vois-tu pas 
Je te veux toi, rien que pour moi 
Longtemps j'ai attendu
Maintenant l'heure est venue de t'avouer 
Tout l'amour que j'ai pour toi

Je m'éteins comme une flamme 
Lorsque j'entends ta voix 
Je frissonne d'amour quand je sens 
Ton souffle derrière moi 
Tu me rends fou, je ne peux plus penser 
Lorsque j'entends ta voix 
Je succombe quand tu laisses ta main 
Posée sur moi comme ça 

Je m'éteins comme une flamme 
Lorsque tu n’es pas là 
Je frissonne d'amour quand je sens 
Ton souffle derrière moi 
Tu me rends fou, je ne peux plus penser 
Lorsque j'entends ta voix 
Je succombe quand tu laisses ta main 
Posée sur moi comme ça
