Lyrics and translation Junior Brown - You Didn't Have to Go All the Way
Well
I
knew
you
was
going
but
you
didn't
have
to
go
all
the
way
Je
savais
que
tu
partais,
mais
tu
n'avais
pas
besoin
d'aller
si
loin
Right
out
of
my
life
and
into
his
arms
to
stay
Directement
hors
de
ma
vie
et
dans
ses
bras
pour
rester
You
got
tired
of
me
but
you
were
supposed
to
be
back
someday
Tu
t'es
lassée
de
moi,
mais
tu
étais
censée
revenir
un
jour
I
knew
you
was
going
but
you
didn't
have
to
go
all
the
way
Je
savais
que
tu
partais,
mais
tu
n'avais
pas
besoin
d'aller
si
loin
Well
You
said
you
needed
time
for
a
little
peace
of
mind
Tu
as
dit
que
tu
avais
besoin
de
temps
pour
un
peu
de
paix
You'ld
be
back
in
a
week
or
so
Tu
serais
de
retour
dans
une
semaine
ou
deux
Then
a
week
turned
into
a
month
or
two
now
it's
been
about
a
year
ago
Puis
une
semaine
s'est
transformée
en
un
mois
ou
deux,
maintenant
ça
fait
environ
un
an
And
all
the
time
I
believed
you
still
wanted
me
Et
tout
ce
temps,
j'ai
cru
que
tu
me
voulais
encore
But
he
was
working
on
you
every
day
Mais
il
travaillait
sur
toi
tous
les
jours
I
knew
you
was
going
but
you
didn't
have
to
go
all
the
way
Je
savais
que
tu
partais,
mais
tu
n'avais
pas
besoin
d'aller
si
loin
Well
I
knew
you
was
going
but
you
didn't
have
to
go
all
the
way
Je
savais
que
tu
partais,
mais
tu
n'avais
pas
besoin
d'aller
si
loin
Right
out
of
my
life
and
into
his
arms
to
stay
Directement
hors
de
ma
vie
et
dans
ses
bras
pour
rester
You
got
tired
of
me
but
you
were
supposed
to
be
back
someday
Tu
t'es
lassée
de
moi,
mais
tu
étais
censée

un

I
knew
you
was
going
but
you
didn't
have

tu
partais,
mais
tu
n'avais
pas
besoin
d'aller

Well
I
knew
you
was
goin'
but
I
never
was
a'knowin'
that
you
ever
want
to
go
that
far
Je
savais
que
tu
partais,
mais
je
n'aurais
jamais
cru
que
tu
voudrais
aller
aussi
loin
And
now
you've
got
a
man
with
a
gold
wedding
band
Et
maintenant,
tu
as
un
homme
avec
une
alliance
en
or
Tellin'
everyone
how
happy
you
are
Qui
dit
à
tout
le
monde
combien
tu
es
heureuse
If
I'd
of
ever
known
that
you
were
never
coming
home
Si
j'avais
jamais
su
que
tu
ne
reviendrais
jamais
à
la
maison
I'd
of
never
let
you
go
that
day
Je
ne
t'aurais
jamais
laissé
partir
ce
jour-là
I
knew
you
was
going
but
you
didn't
have
to
go
all
the
way
Je
savais
que
tu
partais,
mais
tu
n'avais
pas
besoin
d'aller
si
loin
Yeah
I
knew
you
was
going
but
you
didn't
have
to
go
all
the
way
Ouais,
je
savais
que
tu
partais,
mais
tu
n'avais
pas
besoin
d'aller
si
loin
Right
out
of
my
life
and
into
his
arms
to
stay
Directement
hors
de
ma
vie
et
dans
ses
bras
pour
rester
