Toi l ‘amour is a song # 5 from Mylene Farmer album Bleu Noir – the eighth studio album released 6 December 2010.
The lyrics for the song were written by Mylène Farmer. Music composed by Moby.
Possible influences for the texts are Pierre Reverdy and more precisely two poems from the collection The sleeping guitar (1919).
In One chance in two to be understood, Pierre Reverdy writes: “It is only half the sky and the other world / Who goes away” while Mylène writes in Toi amour: “And the another world is going away“.In Love in the shop: “Everything that happened slips into darkness” and in You we find love: “And the other world that goes / In the semi-darkness, footsteps slide'”.
Toi l’amour (like all Moby songs on the Bleu Noir album) was made from a model sent by Moby to Mylène.
All the instruments on the model are played by Moby himself.
Production: Moby & Mylène Farmer
Programming: Eric Chevalier
Piano, Wurlitzer, Hammond organ, artistic collaboration: Yvan Cassar
Guitars: David Levita
Sound recording: Jérôme Devoise

lyrics with translation
Et l'autre monde qui s'en va
Dans la pénombre glissent des pas
Et l'on sait à peine d'où tu viens, tu vas
L'on sait bien quand même dire
Faut pas que tu t'en ailles Jamais
Toi l'amour
Revient toujours
Retient le jour
S'incline au vent d'aimer
Car l'amour
Est à nous
Pour toujours
Malgré le monde qui saigne
Je l'appelle
Malgré l'obscur malgré l'obscène
Je l'appelle
O poussière de sentiment qui devient plaine
Je l'appelle
Tu recouvres l'âme, tu troubles le ciel
Nos veines
Toi l'amour
Revient toujours
Retient le jour
S'incline au vent d'aimer
Car l'amour
Est à nous
Pour toujours
Toi l'amour
Revient toujours
Retient le jour
S'incline au vent d'aimer
Car l'amour
Est à nous
Pour toujours
And the other world going away
In the half-light, footsteps slide
And we barely know where you're from, you're going
We still know how to say
You must never go away
You love
Always comes back
Hold back the day
Bows to the wind to love
Because love
Is ours
Forever
Despite the bleeding world
I call him
Despite the dark despite the obscene
I call him
O dust of feeling that becomes plain
I call him
You cover the soul, you disturb the sky
Our veins
You love
Always comes back
Hold back the day
Bows to the wind to love
Because love
Is ours
Forever
You love
Always comes back
Hold back the day
Bows to the wind to love
Because love
Is ours
Forever
