Quand tu partiras
Julie Arel
When You Leave
Looking at you, one would think
That you're in a hurry to leave
Looking at you, it seems to believe
That I am nothing but a memory
All that's left is to hope
That one day maybe you'll come back
I seem to read in your eyes
That you want to distance yourself from me
Which of us will be defeated
Which of us will be lost
I feel like it's me who will suffer
I feel like it's me who will cry
Don't think that for love
I would risk my whole life
Don't think that I'm the one
Who will wait for you a lifetime
Because I'm afraid of being condemned
Like a bird that can no longer fly
Don't want to end up alone
Like a widow dragging her mourning
Listening to you, it seems to believe
That you're searching as much as I am
Listening to you, I wonder
If you will remember me
I would so much like to give you everything
Without having to regret it
I would so much like to surrender
Knowing you're there by my side
But I don't want to be one
Who feeds on the past
Because I need to be loved too much
To stop or hope
Don't think that for love
I would risk my whole life
Don't think that I'm the one
Who will wait for you a lifetime
Because I'm afraid of being condemned
Like a bird that can no longer fly
Don't want to end up alone
Like a widow dragging her mourning
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
