a tout a l'heure

Singer:bibio

count in twos

count in fours

when you're feeling soft

treading ever so kindly

break it off

break it off

when you see it glow and you're thinking it's ripened

a tout a l'heure

a tout a l'heure

when you lift your feet and you know it's me waving

scatter brains

scatter grains

count the dandelions and the plots they ripen

count in threes

count in fives

see the buckled wheel and the merry-go-rounding

spin your arms

spin your eyes

ever mindfully

ever carefully breezing

count within and count without

feel the bellowing and the diaphragm flexing

let it drop and let it bounce

count in melodies and the gravity breathing

count in twos

count in fours

when you're feeling slow

treading ever so fondly

cut it off

cut it off

when you see it grow and you're thinking it's bolting

a tout a l'heure

a tout a l'heure

when you lift your soles and you know it's me smiling

scatter brains

scatter grains

count the buttercups and the melodies ripened

count in threes

count in fives

see the figure-eight

hear the cherry-go-rounding

span your arms

span your eyes

ever presently

ever carefully freezing

count within

count without

feel the mellowing and the daffodil resting

let it drop

let it bounce

count the melodies and the levity teething
