Tout ce temps
This song focuses on the time lost waiting for the loved one and who cannot be caught. All this time to wait, like an obsession that slowly consumes but leaves a part of hope that this wait will not be in vain...
The text is accompanied by a sober instru and begins with a simple guitar-voice joined by percussions evoking the passing time. The end of the piece is supported by more percussions, highlighting hope, in parallel with a plaintive song, in the background, to mark the desperate wait. more
