1 "L'Amour naissant" 4:59 Mylenium tour No This song has the same title as the album, since 'Innamoramento' means 'L'amour naissant' in French-language. This tribute to the film Ryan's Daughter by David Lean (mentioned in the lyrics) deals with boredom, cold, Ireland, love and death. It begins with the sound of thunder.

The song refers to Buddhism and especially to the book Livre tibétain de la vie et de la mort, by Sogyal Rinpoche. The text evokes the astrology and the supreme god of gnostic (cited under the acronym 'IAO' = Isis, Apophis and Osiris).

9 "Serais-tu là?" 4:40 No No Farmer addresses to her lover and seems to evoke the regrets that can be felt in love. In the refrain, she wondered if he would agree if she was willing to sacrifice herself for him. Some words quote Paul Verlaine's work Les Poèmes saturniens.
10 "Consentement" 4:35 No No Enigmatic lyrics refer to a budding love which is conjugated with the second-person of plural in French-language (= to address the lover as 'vous'). The title of the nursery rhyme Ah! Vous dirai-je, maman is also mentioned in song's lyrics.

"Consentement" was scheduled for the Mylenium Tour, but was finally abandoned. The song serves as sound background for one of the bonus included in the DVD Mylènium Tour.

11 "Et si vieillir m'était conté" 4:50 No No The song evokes the passage of time and thus the old age and the death, personifiing the night.

Scheduled for being the third single from the album, the song was replaced by "Souviens-toi du jour".
