Ça t'arrive sans crier gare
Au milieu d'une heure incolore

Un geste, une odeur, un regard
Qui comme déchire ton décor

Tout a coup ce cœur qui t'avait presque oublie
Se pointe a ta porte et se remet a cogner

Attention, le ballet va commencer

Tu comprends pas trop ce qui t'arrive
Tu crois d'abord a une erreur

Tu l’évites et lui te devine
Entre le désir et la peur

Tu t'entends lui dire des phrases sans aucun sens
Qu'importe les mots n'ont plus d'importance

Car le ballet a commence

Il met ses plus beaux atours et do miel sur sa voix
Toi tu te fais velours et tes bijoux brillent sur toi
Il te dit poèmes et rêves de lointains voyages
Tu réponds Florence, peinture, impeccables images

Dames et cavaliers, avancez

Un coup d’œil a son dos, ses hanches, quand s'efface le galantin
Un regard quand elle se penche et laisse deviner un sein
Elle sait déjà ses mains, les contours de sa bouche
Le cambre de ses reins, qu'elle a note en douce

Car le ballet va s'animer

Il a su les codes et donne les bons mots de passe
Encore un peu d'alcool et que tombent les cuirasses
Livrées les clés des corps enfin les peaux s'embrassent
Et le temps s’arrête tant que dure la grâce

Car le ballet, est bientôt termine
Et la vraie vie, va commencer
Et oui, la vraie vie
