-----------
Composé lors d’une résidence artistique (Entr’Arts) à Métis Crossings en Alberta, ce single personnifie la relation tordue entre la mer et la lune; le désir et l’attente, l’envie indéniable de quitter malgré soi et la toxicité d’un rapport voué à l’échec.

This particular song came to life during the duo’s artistic residency (Entr’Arts) at Métis Crossings in Alberta. This single (Soleil des loups) personifies the twisted relationship between the sea and the moon; the desire and the expectation, the undeniable yearning to leave in spite of oneself and the toxicity of a relationship doomed from the start.
lyrics
C’est salé c’est doux (it's bittersweet)
Ces vagues entre nous (these waves between us)
Qui s’écrasent au rivage (that crash on the shore)
Sens-tu mon orage (do you feel my storm?)
Mon coeur encore te suit, mon coeur encore te suit (my heart still follows you)
Et sombre dans la nuit, et sombre dans la nuit (and hides in the shadows of night)
Car encore tu t’enfuies (cause you're gone again)
Car toujours tu t’enfuies (you're always gone)
La mer, la lune, la mer, la lune (the ocean, the moon)
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
J’avale la lumière me nourris de chimères (I swallow your light, feed myself with illusions)
Je me remplis du vide des plaisirs éphémères (I fill the void with fleeting pleasures)
Et j’attends, à chaque soir j’attends, et j’attends, à chaque soir pourquoi (and I wait, every night I wait, and I wait, but why?)
La mer, la lune, la mer, la lune (the ocean, the moon)
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
On a noyé le village x7 (now we're drowning the whole town x7)
Si tu pouvais me donner la lune (if you could give me the moon)
Ce si peu de toi qui m’allume (such a small part of you that lights me up)
Je veux te donner la mer (i'll give you the sea)
Arroser ton désert (water your desert)
La mer, la lune, la mer, la lune (the ocean, the moon)
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
La mer, la lune, la mer, la lune
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
