Eldritch Magic

Remembering the Ways of Old

Put your words on my lips And your hand on my heart
Write your life on me

Your dreams on my skin As a shudder on the water
Which would not ever ends

Hang on your days to my nights As a sun on my boredom
Another life which begins again

Open the pages of my childhood And with your most beautiful writing
Write love over my wounds

Come and engrave your road In the hollow of my hand
I shall guide your fingers

Come to embroider your memory In the course of my history
Write your life on me

Before the time takes us Towards Other skins and other doors
I want to dream about a future

I want to engrave your souvenir On all my body from all my being
to belong to you and to know you
and then to die and then to be reborn

I am an opened book A story, a reflection,
Write your life on me.

Translate by fro a song by Yves Duteil and Rose Laurens titled "Écris ta vie sur moi".
