[Verse 1] I'm one red drop deep in the big toe, just gave my oxygen, released it, let it go. Up through the leg veins, climbing slow and steady, past tiny valves holding back the tide already. Into the inferior vena cava, dark and wide, I fall like rain into the right atrium's tide. [Chorus] One drop, mon amour, круг за кругом now (circle after circle) Toe to heart, heart to lung, lung back home Right side blue, left side red, that's the code One drop, one loop, никогда не одна (never alone) [Verse 2] Through the tricuspid door, hinge and swing, into the right ventricle, feel the heart's first fling. A gentle squeeze, la pression douce et sûre, sends me through the pulmonary valve, sure and pure. Up the pulmonary artery, blue and low, racing to the lungs where the air sacs glow. [Chorus] One drop, mon amour, круг за кругом now Toe to heart, heart to lung, lung back home Right side blue, left side red, that's the code One drop, one loop, никогда не одна [Verse 3] At the air sacs I trade my heavy carbon load, breathe in fresh oxygen, bright red, ready to explode. Riding home along the pulmonary vein so fine, into the left atrium, cherry-red design. Through the mitral valve, a velvet gate divine, left ventricle waits, la force, the mighty spine. [Verse 4] A powerful squeeze, le grand coup, the strongest beat, launches me through the aortic valve, no retreat. Down the aorta, maybe I feed the brain, maybe the heart itself, or the toe again. I drop my oxygen, my gift, my running total, then I start the trip home, c'est ça, the loop is total. [Verse 5] Through the aorta's branches, I spread out wide, into arterioles, then capillaries, side by side. I squeeze through walls thinner than a whisper's thread, feeding cells with oxygen, tissue turns from pale to red. Carbon dioxide waits, la dette, the debt I owe, I gather it up gently before I start to go. Back through venules, into veins, the journey's not yet done, returning to vena cava, the circle's never won. Every organ has its story, every cell its plea, I am the courier, the drop that sets them free. [Bridge] Right side blue, tricuspid, pulmonary flew, left side red, mitral, aortic, through and through. Один путь (one path), une boucle (one loop), learn it well, the story of one drop I'm here to tell. [Chorus] One drop, mon amour, круг за кругом now Toe to heart, heart to lung, lung back home Right side blue, left side red, that's the code One drop, one loop, никогда не одна [Outro] Toe to heart, heart to lung, lung to heart again, heart to toe, the circle has no end. One drop, one loop, круг замкнулся, c'est fini pour l'instant, but I'll be back, the blood keeps its rendezvous. [Final Chorus] One drop, mon amour, круг за кругом now Toe to heart, heart to lung, lung back home Right side blue, left side red, that's the code One drop, one loop, никогда не одна Один путь, une boucle, the loop begins again, toe to heart, heart to lung, home to toe, amen.
