[Verse 1] [very soft, low, breathy whisper] Le téléphone vibre... ... Ton message... « Viens chez moi. » ... Trois heures quarante-cinq... ... J’ouvre la porte. ... Tu es là. ... Sans un mot... ... Je te prends dans mes bras. ... Tes larmes... ... Si chaudes... [Chorus] [same low register, calm and warm] Deep inside my heart... I can feel just what you need Won't you hold my hand... Show me what you really feel Right here where I stand... Let me take away your fears You don't have to speak... I can see it through your tears [Post-Chorus] [quiet whisper, same register] Je te tiens... ... Je te tiens... [quiet whisper, same register] Je te tiens... ... Je te tiens... [Verse 2] [low, relaxed, almost whispered] La ville dort... ... Tes larmes tombent... ... Ton souffle tremble... ... Tout doucement... ... Je reste là... ... Près de toi... ... Je te tiens... [Chorus] [same gentle register, never higher] Deep inside my heart... I can feel just what you need Won't you hold my hand... Show me what you really feel Right here where I stand... Let me take away your fears You don't have to speak... I can see it through your tears [Bridge] [extremely quiet, intimate whisper] Pas besoin de mots... ... Pas cette nuit... ... Je te tiens... ... Je te tiens... [Final Chorus] [same low, soft vocal — no climax] Deep inside my heart... I can feel just what you need Won't you hold my hand... Show me what you really feel Right here where I stand... Let me take away your fears You don't have to speak... I can see it through your tears [Outro] [barely audible, peaceful whisper] Je te tiens... ... Je te tiens... ... Jusqu’au matin...
