[Verse 1]
In the beginning, there was nothing
So empty in the space between
And you came in, turned the lights on
And created what it's come to be
Before I pluck your wings, cover me
Please, spread your wings, cover me and

[Chorus]
Promise this, if I die before I wake up
Promise this, take the time to say your grace
On your knees, you pray for me
Promise this, be the last to kiss my lips

[Post-Chorus]
Alouette-uette-uеtte
Alouette-uеtte-uette
Alouette-uette-uette
Déployer les ailes
Alouette-uette-uette
Alouette-uette-uette
Alouette-uette-uette
Plumerai les ailes

[Verse 2]
Though I'm walking through the shadows
You are with me and you comfort me
Lay me down now, time for sleeping
But before that, would you restore me?
Before I pluck your wings, cover me
Please, spread your wings, cover me and
[Chorus]
Promise this, if I die before I wake up
Promise this, take the time to say your grace
On your knees, you pray for me
Promise this, be the last to kiss my lips

[Bridge]
By a thread we're hanging on
And I hope you don't let go
If you ever leave me, know I wanna go with you, yeah

[Chorus]
Promise this, if I die before I wake, oh
Promise this, take the time to say your grace
On your knees, you pray for me
Promise this, be the last to kiss my lips

[Post-Chorus]
Alouette-uette-uette
Alouette-uette-uette
Alouette-uette-uette
Déployer les ailes
Alouette-uette-uette
Alouette-uette-uette
Alouette-uette-uette
Plumerai les ailes
[Outro]
Alouette, déployer les ailes
Alouette, déployer les ailes-les-les-les
