En attendant ses pas, je mets la musique en sourdine, tout bas 
Trop bête, on ne sait pas, s'il sonnait
Si je n'entendais pas cette fois 
En attendant ses pas ce matin-là

Un soir? Un matin? Un hiver, une aube 
Un printemps qu'il choisira
Rien, je n'en sais rien, je mets des lumières 
Les nuits au bord des chemins

En attendant ses bras je peins des fleurs aux portes 
Il aimera ça
En attendant le doux temps de ses bras 

Et je prends soin de moi, rouge à mes lèvres, à mes joues 
Pour qu'il ne voit pas
Quand trop pale parfois, ne surtout pas 
Qu'il me surprenne comme ça

Il y a de l'eau fraîche et du vin 
Je ne sais pas ce qu'il choisira
Je ne sais s'il est blond, s'il est brun 
Je ne sais s'il est grand ou pas
Mais en entendant sa voix je saurai 
Que tous ses mots, tous seront pour moi
En attendant le doux temps de ses bras 

J'y pense tout le temps à cet instant, oh quand on se reconnaîtra 
Je lui dirai c'était bien long, non, je ne lui dirai sûrement pas
En attendant ses pas, je vis, je rêve et je respire pour ça 
En attendant juste un sens à tout ça

Un soir? Un matin? Un hiver, une aube 
Un printemps qu'il choisira
Rien, je n'en sais rien, je mets des lumières 
Les nuits au bord des chemins

En attendant ses bras je peins des fleurs aux portes 
Il aimera ça
En attendant juste un sens à tout ça, à tout ça
