Sans toi

Tell me where you were for my first steps
Your arms that I can't remember
I tried to replace you
But I'm still searching for you
I wish I could show you what I love
Without you, my life is still beautiful
But I'll never be someone I'm not
Why do you want to take everything away?
You left without looking back
I wish I could rebuild it all, but it's too late
I don't want to run in the dark anymore
The sound of your door slamming
I'll never keep my mouth shut again
My mouth
I learned to grow up without seeing you
And even to heal without knowing
Why don't you love me as I am?
As if I wasn't good enough
I am, and so what
Fortunately, I have another love
Mom will always be there
Together, we managed to mend my heart
I'm not afraid anymore
Why do you want to reject me?
I wish I could be heard
Tell me why you built your life without me
Yeah, maybe I just don't deserve you
You know, I'll move on alone, yeah, you'll see
So far, so far from you
And I could have given up a thousand times
Yeah, I wouldn't have raised my arms anymore, yeah, I could have fallen
But love survived all that
I love you, you see

I can rebuild everything by chance
Without waiting for a life full of hope
Since your gaze is frozen, I finally decide to move on
And I write my life
I learned to grow, to see myself
Without your words pulling me down
Since you don't love me as I am
As if I wasn't good enough
I am your daughter.
