Paroles et traduction Hélène Ségara - Tu vas me quitter

Tu vas me quitter

J′ai tatoué ma peau à l'encre de t′aimer
J'ai tatoué le faux pour me cacher le vrai
Arraché aux oiseaux leurs ailes pour te garder
Chassé les marées hautes pour venir te chercher
Tu vas me quitter je le sais, tu vas t'en aller je le sais
Et sur les murs de ma détresse, j′ai l′envie de toi qui me reste
Tu vas me quitter je le sais, tu vas t'en aller je le sais
Mais il faudrait que tu comprennes que ton adieu coule dans mes veines
J′ai avoué ma faute sur du papier glacé
Coupable en quelque sorte d'être par toi blessée
J′ai voulu chasser l'autre au vent de mes secrets
{Mais tu conjugues sans faute l′amour à l'imparfait
Mal jugée par tes lois, sans appels ni regrets}
J'ai appris sous tes doigts les maux des condamnés
Tu vas me quitter, je le sais
Tu vas t′en aller, je le sais
Et sur les murs de ma détresse, j′ai l'envie de toi qui me reste
Tu vas me quitter, je le sais
Tu vas t′en aller, je le sais
Mais il faudrait que tu comprennes que ton adieu coule dans mes veines
Tu vas me quitter, je le sais
Tu vas t'en aller, je le sais
Mais il faudrait que tu comprennes que ton adieu coule dans mes veines
Tu vas me quitter, je le sais
Tu vas me quitter, je le sais

You're Going to Leave Me

I tattooed my skin with the ink of loving you
I tattooed the false to hide the true
Torn off birds' wings to keep you
Hunted the high tides to come find you
You're going to leave me, I know it, you're going to go away, I know it
And on the walls of my despair, I have the longing for you that remains
You're going to leave me, I know it, you're going to go away, I know it
But you need to understand that your farewell flows through my veins
I confessed my fault on glossy paper
Guilty in a way of being hurt by you
I wanted to chase the other away with the wind of my secrets
{But you effortlessly conjugate love in the past tense
Misjudged by your laws, without appeal or regret}
I learned the pains of the condemned under your touch
You're going to leave me, I know it
You're going to go away, I know it
And on the walls of my despair, I have the longing for you that remains
You're going to leave me, I know it
You're going to go away, I know it
But you need to understand that your farewell flows through my veins
You're going to leave me, I know it
You're going to go away, I know it
But you need to understand that your farewell flows through my veins
You're going to leave me, I know it
You're going to leave me, I know it
