[Intro]
Uhh, uhh… yeah
J’ai trop donné… I gave too much
[Chorus]
I was holding on, holding on to something I couldn’t keep *(oh no)*
Fighting on my own, loving you was never meant for me *(never me)*
Now I see it clear, yeah
Everything just fades away
All the time I gave, all the love I shared *(oh yeah)*
Tu n’étais pas là, you were never really there *(never there)*
Now I understand, yeah
I had to walk away
[Verse 1]
Je t’ai tout donné, même quand j’étais brisée
I was holding us together while you kept walking away
Je fermais les yeux, j’espérais encore
But deep inside I knew this love had no core
Every promise that you made never stayed the same
Tu revenais puis tu repartais jouer au même game
I was losing myself trying to hold you tight
Mais j’ai fini par voir la vérité dans la nuit
[Chorus]
I was holding on, holding on to something I couldn’t keep
Fighting on my own, loving you was never meant for me
Now I see it clear, yeah
Everything just fades away
All the time I gave, all the love I shared
Tu n’étais pas là, you were never really there
Now I understand, yeah
I had to walk away
[Verse 2]
Maintenant je respire, je reprends ma place
I don’t chase anymore, I just let things pass
Tu étais une leçon, pas une destination
I found my peace in my own transformation
Je me reconstruis loin de tes mensonges
No more late nights crying over what was wrong
Aujourd’hui je sais ce que je mérite vraiment
A love that stays, a love that’s present
[Bridge]
Je lâche prise, I release it all
Plus de chaînes, I won’t fall
Ce cœur guérit doucement
I’m moving on, I’m finally strong
[Final Chorus]
I was holding on, holding on to something I couldn’t keep
Fighting on my own, loving you was never meant for me
Now I see it clear, yeah
Everything just fades away
All the time I gave, all the love I shared
Tu n’étais pas là, you were never really there
Now I understand, yeah
I had to walk away
