Gainsbourg, Charlotte - Somewhere Between Waking And Sleeping Lyrics
Without blindness
There is no sight
You'd see the further if you'd only close your eyes
In unconsciousness
Inside prison walls I can find release
There is a place that I've seen
Somewhere between waking and sleeping
Down at the water's edge
Somebody waits for me
Is it too late for me?
"It's never too late", he says
Without blindness
there is no sight
there is failure
I'd see further
people gather
if I
by the river
close my eyes
they were talking
about the failure
There is a place that I've seen
Somewhere between waking and sleeping
Leaning up (?) overside
Trailing my fingertips
Watching the water slip
Into the quiet night
Viewed from the wrong end of the telescope
I see myself
So far below
Still and silent
Rest in peace
A thread unravels
Such merciful release
There is a place that I've seen
Somewhere between waking and sleeping
Now I can all but see
Figures upon the shore
He's gathering enemies (?)
Where are you taking me?

I usually prefer breathy female vocals, but this version doesn't work for me. Oh well.

Can someone share the piano chords for this song ? Not able to make out the chords when she says "There is a place that I have seen"
the whole 5:55 was produced/composed by AIR, it isn't surprising that she wanted to do some kind of tribute for their work :3

Lovely cover! Where is this from?
I love you, Ahlem. There is a place we've seen, and it is ours.
