Place de La Republique

We met during the time of pleasing
To the demands we created but we get lost in it
You're just a few kilometers away
And our hearts, our hearts remained in that sea
I ran along the Seine
Hoping to find you, with a serene soul
I ran without knowing how
Nor why we get carried away
We only knew each other for a moment

And I no longer know if you're worth it
It's rather hard to be certain
And when you're at the Ternes gate
Tonight, don't forget me
I'll wait for you at least long enough to say
That I wanted to take the biggest risk
An evening that made me very sad
An evening at Republic Square

And as you can see, it's really the end
I have to cross the ocean tomorrow morning
From your arms, I'll slowly tear myself away
And it's reality that awaits me
I know your heart is inhabited
By one or other girl who left their mark on you
I'm not as strong as the others
But I hope to be missed by you
To stand out

And I no longer know if you're worth it
It's rather hard to be certain
And when you're at the Ternes gate
Tonight, don't forget me
I'll wait for you at least long enough to say
That I wanted to take the biggest risk
An evening that made me very sad
An evening at Republic Square
