I find myself
so far away from you
that I've lost myself
surrounded by and filled again with silence
and I tell myself
that this emptiness I fear
and the loneliness I feel
is pulling me away from you in silence
How long to wait
so filled with hope
before fate, I fear
will split us apart again, in silence
And I tell myself
the closure that I wish
the salvation I need
is sliding away from me in silence
but this kindness of yours
and the lights in your eyes
and the joyfulness we’ve shared
are pulling me to you
are bringing me to you
are bringing you to me
in silence
"Away a été écrit à l'origine par Eric il y a plusieurs années alors qu'il rêvait d'un être cher qui était loin. L'interprétation touchante de Coco a donné à la pièce toute sa dimension. Away est une pièce à part car elle a été une (la?) une des premières et elle a été enregistré en une seule fois. Éric à Dubaï, Chloé à Paris, ils échangent sur le titre et Chloé enregistre de son home studio. La réponse d’Eric est sans appel: on ne change rien ! Les étoiles se sont alignées sur ce titre mélancolique en une émotion commune." - Coco Franca
Translation: "'Away' was originally written by Eric several years ago while he was longing for a loved one that was far away. The new interpretation by Coco has given the song an even fuller dimension. It is a special track because it was one of the first recorded and it was produced all at once with Eric in Dubai, and Chloe in Paris. They remotely discussed the track while Chloé recorded vocals in her home studio. When questioned, Eric's answer is clear: we're not changing anything! This melancholy title aligned with a common emotion each understood.
