J'ai Peur D'aimer Un Souvenir
Mireille Mathieu
I'm Afraid to Love a Memory
A fountain, a stone wall, a bit of ivy
Climbing on a roof
In this room, I made the promise to love you for the first
And the last time
After the storm and years of forgetfulness, all my travels brought me back here
Here I am, I regret already and I'm afraid of this door
That will open to you
I'm afraid to love a memory
I'm afraid of you, I'm afraid of me
I'm afraid we have nothing to say to each other
Or too many things at once
I shouldn't have come back
I had an image of you
I'm afraid to love a memory
And here you are in front of me
I'm waiting for you to speak, your voice is still the same
The same eyes, we've barely changed
I'm afraid in front of the two of us
I'm afraid to love a memory
I'm afraid of you, I'm afraid of me
But you only have one word to say
And I'll be in your arms
I want to love a memory
I want to love you like before
You did well to come back
I was waiting for those words from you
We can love a memory
Until we bring it back to life
Tonight I'm ready to die
Since you love me too
Tonight I'm ready to die
I've just loved a memory
