You, you
You, you
J'ai cherché un sens à mon existence
I searched for meaning in my existence
J'y ai laissé mon innocence
I left my innocence there
J'ai fini le cœur sans défense
I ended up with a defenseless heart
J'ai cherché l'amour et la reconnaissance
I sought love and recognition
J'ai payé le prix du silence
I paid the price of silence
Je me blesse et je recommence
I hurt myself and start again
Tu m'as comme donné l'envie d'être moi
You kind of ignited my desire to be myself
Donné un sens à mes pourquoi
Gave meaning to my whys
Tu as tué la peur qui dormait là
You killed the fear that was sleeping there
Qui dormait là dans mes bras
Who was sleeping there in my arms
You
You
You're the one that's making me strong
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for you
I'll be looking, looking for you
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
You
You
You're the one that's making me strong
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for you
I'll be looking, looking for you
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
J'ai cherché un sens, un point de repère
I've searched for meaning, a point of reference
Partagé en deux hémisphères
Split into two hemispheres
Comme une erreur de l'univers
Like a mistake of the universe
J'ai jeté tellement de bouteille à la mer
I've thrown so many bottles into the sea
J'ai bu tant de liqueurs amères
I've drunk so many bitter liqueurs
Que j'en ai les lèvres de pierre
That my lips are made of stone
Tu m'as comme donné l'envie d'être moi
You’ve somehow sparked the desire to be myself
Donné un sens à mes pourquoi
Gave meaning to my whys
Tu as tué la peur qui dormait là
You killed the fear that lay there
Qui dormait là dans mes bras
That lay there in my arms
You
You
You're the one that's making me strong
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for you
I'll be looking, looking for you
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
You
You
You're the one that's making me strong
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for you
I'll be looking, looking for you
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
Au gré de nos blessures
In the flow of our wounds
Et de nos désinvoltures
And our nonchalance
C'est quand on n'y croit plus du tout
It's when we don't believe anymore at all
Qu'on trouve un paradis perdu en nous
That we find a lost paradise within us
Oh, you, you, you, you
Oh, you, you, you, you
You
You
You're the one that's making me strong
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for you
I'll be looking, looking for you
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
Tu m'as comme donné l'envie d'être moi
You gave me the desire to be myself
Donné un sens à mes pourquoi (You)
Gave a meaning to my whys (You)
Tu as tué la peur qui dormait là
You killed the fear that was sleeping there
Qui dormait là dans mes bras
Who was sleeping there in my arms
You
You
You're the one that's making me strong
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking, looking for you
I'll be looking, looking, looking for you
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
You
You
