I write words
That I won't send you
I empty my head
But I only think of you
I'm looking for my heart
I don't know where it beats
And I'm waiting for you
When are you coming again
To watch the sea
Everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything is so far
I wanna forget the earth
Everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything will be fine
But you know I'm scared
When you smile at me
The sun sets
I wanna touch your mouth
And I cry
'Cause you lied to me
The sun sets
Even when the night's shady
Come watch the sunset
I forgive you, I'm dumb
Everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything will be fine
Red horizon
We don't talk
I wanted some time
To get away from you
Hurting myself like that
I've fallen too low
But in the end
When are you coming again
To watch the sea
Everything, everything, everything
Everything, right next to me
I wanna forget the earth
Everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything is fuchsia
But you know I'm scared
When you smile at me
The sun sets
I wanna touch your mouth
And I cry
'Cause you lied to me
The sun sets
Even when the night's shady
Come watch the sunset
I forgive you, I'm dumb
Everything, everything, everything
Everything, everything will be fine
And I can't
Leave you aside
But I miss you
It's true, sh*t
And I see the sky tearing apart
In the coves
Or in the sea
But you know I cry
When you smile at me
The sun sets
I wanna touch your mouth
And I cry
'Cause you lied to me
The sun sets
Even when the night's shady
Come watch the sunset
I forgive you, I'm dumb

SONG MEANING

Picture the sky flashing pink, orange, and fuchsia while waves roll in rhythm to a broken heart. In “Sunset,” Adé jots down messages she will never send, then watches the horizon hoping her lover will show up. The sea is her escape, yet every splash of water drags her thoughts back to him. She is caught between craving his smile and fearing the hurt it brings, confessing, “Je veux toucher ta bouche… et je pleure.” The sunset becomes a giant clock counting the moments she forgives his lies, calls herself “bête,” and still waits for another chance to share the view.

Beneath the dreamy colors lies a tug-of-war of emotions: longing, disappointment, forgiveness, and fragile optimism. Even when “la nuit est louche,” Adé believes that if they can simply sit together and watch the sky melt into night, “tout ira bien.” The song turns an everyday sunset into a vivid metaphor for love’s bittersweet endings and hesitant new beginnings, making us sway between hope and heartbreak just like the tide.
