Je me souviens de tout
I remember everything
Comme si c'était hier
As if it were yesterday
De tes yeux, de ta bouche
Your eyes, your mouth
Et de la vue sur la mer
And the view of the sea
Je me souviens de nous
I remember us
Et comme on était beau
And how beautiful we were
Ton prénom dans mes prières
Your name in my prayers
Et ton souffle sur ma peau
And your breath on my skin
Le jour où je t'ai perdu
The day I lost you
Il te manquait de l'espace
You needed more space
Si seulement je l'avais vu
If only I had seen you
Je t'aurais laissé la place
I would have made room for you
T'étais où
Where were you
T'étais où
Where were you
Toutes ces années passées sans toi
All those years gone by without you
Je t'ai cherché, tu n'étais plus là
I searched for you, you were no longer there
T'étais où
Where were you
T'étais où
Where were you
J'avais tellement besoin de toi
I needed you so much
Je t'ai cherché
I searched for you
Là, tu l'as fait ta vie
There, you made your life
Pris le risque de nous perdre
Took the risk of losing us
Dis-le-moi si j'peux tout dire
Tell me if I can say it all
Dis-le-moi si je t'emmerde
Tell me if I'm bothering you
C'est le temps qui guérit
It's time that heals
Oh, c'est l'amour qui blesse
Oh, it's love that wounds
Il en faudrait de la magie
It would take some magic
Pour que ton visage disparaisse
For your face to disappear
Le jour où je t'ai perdu
The day I lost you
Il te manquait de l'espace
You were lacking some space
Si seulement je l'avais vu
If only I had seen you
Je t'aurais laissé la place
I would have left you the spot
T'étais où
Where were you
T'étais où
Where were you
Toutes ces années passées sans toi
All these years gone by without you
Je t'ai cherché, tu n'étais plus là
I searched for you, you were no longer there
T'étais où
Where were you
T'étais où
Where were you
J'avais tellement besoin de toi
I needed you so much
Je t'ai cherché
I searched for you
Je veux que tu me dises si c'est cet enfant
I want you to tell me if this child
Que j'ai pas pu t'offrir qui manque vraiment
That I couldn't give you is the one that's truly missing
T'étais où
Where were you
T'étais où
Where were you
Toutes ces années
All these years
Je t'ai cherché
I searched for you
T'étais où
Where were you
T'étais où
Where were you
Toutes ces années passées sans toi
All these years spent without you
Je t'ai cherché, tu n'étais plus là
I searched for you, you were no longer there
T'étais où
Where were you
T'étais où
Where were you
J'avais tellement besoin de toi
I needed you so much
Je t'ai cherché
I searched for you
