Puisque Tu Pars

Since the shadow is winning
Since there is no mountain
Beyond the winds higher than the steps of oblivion
Since we must learn
In the absence of understanding
To dream our desires and live with 'so be it'

And since you think
Like an intimate evidence
That sometimes even giving everything is not necessarily enough
Since it's elsewhere
That your heart will beat better
And since we love you too much to hold you back

Since you're leaving

May the winds take you
Where other souls, more beautiful
Will know how to love you better than us since we can't love you more
May life teach you
But may you remain the same
If you betrayed yourself, we would have completely lost you

Keep this chance
That we envy in silence
This strength to think that the best is yet to come
And far from our cities
Like October is from April
Know that here remains of you like an indelible imprint

Without drama, without tears
Poor and derisory weapons
Because there are pains that only cry inside
Since your home
Today is the horizon
In your exile, try to learn to come back

But not too late

In your story
Keep in mind
Our goodbye
Since you're leaving
In your story
Keep in mind
Our goodbye
Since you're leaving

I could have closed, forgotten all these doors
Left everything with a simple gesture but you didn't do it
I could have given so much love and so much strength
But all I could do was not yet enough
Not enough, not enough, not enough

In your story (in your story)
Keep in mind (keep in mind)
Our goodbye (our goodbye)
Since you're leaving (since you're leaving)
