Eurovision 2016 France:
Amir - "J'ai cherché"
J'ai cherché
J'ai cherché un sens à mon existence
J'y ai laissé mon innocence
J'ai fini le cœur sans défense
J'ai cherché
L'amour et la reconnaissance
J'ai payé le prix du silence
Je me blesse et recommence
Tu m'as Comme donné l'envie d'être moi
Donné un sens à mes pourquoi
Tu as tué la peur
Qui dormait là, qui dormait là
Dans mes bras
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
J'ai cherché un sens
Un point de repère
Partagé en deux hémisphères
Comme une erreur de l'Univers
J'ai jeté tellement de bouteilles à la mer
J'ai bu tant de liqueurs amères
Que j'en ai les lèvres de pierre
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
Au gré de nos blessures
Et de nos désinvoltures
C'est quand on n'y croit plus du tout
Qu'on trouve un Paradis perdu
En nous
Oh, you, you, you, you
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
You
You're the one that's mаking me strong
I'll be looking, looking, looking for
You
Give me your love with my song
Give me your love with my ѕong
I searched
I have looked for a sense to my existence
It made me leave my innocence behind
I've finished with an unprotected heart
I have looked for…
Love and recognition
I have paid the price of silence
I am getting hurt but starting all over again
You gave me the will to be myself
Gave a meaning to my questions
You have killed the fear that was sleeping here
That was sleeping here
In my arms
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
I have looked for, a direction, a landmark
Split into two hemispheres
Like a mistake of the universe
I have thrown…
Too many bottles to the sea
Drank so much bitter liquor
It made my lips as cold as stone
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
Along our injuries
And our flippancies
It's when we completely lose our faith
That we find a lost paradise inside ourselves
Within us
Oh, you, you, you, you
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
You
You're the one that's making me strong
I'll be looking, looking for
You
Like the melody of my song
Like the melody of my song
You
You're the one that's mаking me strong
I'll be looking, looking, looking for
You
Give me your love with my song
Give me your love with my ѕong
Etsin
Olen etsinyt olemassaololleni merkitystä
Se sai mut jättämään viattomuuteni taakseni
Olen päässyt päätökseen suojaamattomalla sydämellä
Olen etsinyt…
Rakkautta ja tunnustusta
Olen maksanut hiljaisuuden hinnan
Mua satutetaan, mutta aloitan kaiken alusta
Annoit mulle tahdon olla oma itseni
Antoi kysymyksilleni merkityksen
Olet tappanut pelon, joka nukkui täällä
Joka nukkui täällä
Sylissäni
Sä
Olet se, joka tekee musta vahvan
Etsin, etsin
Sua
Kuin lauluni melodia
Sä
Olet se, joka tekee musta vahvan
Etsin, etsin
Sua
Kuin lauluni melodia
Olen etsinyt suuntaa, maamerkkiä
Jaettu kahteen pallonpuoliskoon
Kuin maailmankaikkeuden virhe
Olen heittänyt…
Liian monta pulloa mereen
Join niin paljon kitkerää viinaa
Se sai huuleni kylmiksi kuin kivi
Sä
Olet se, joka tekee musta vahvan
Etsin, etsin
Sua
Kuin lauluni melodia
Sä
Olet se, joka tekee musta vahvan
Etsin, etsin
Sua
Kuin lauluni melodia
Vammojemme mukana
Ja kevytmielisyytemme
On silloin, kun menetämme täysin uskomme
Että löydämme sisällämme kadonneen paratiisin
Sisällämme
Oh, sä, sä, sä, sä
Sä
Olet se, joka tekee musta vahvan
Etsin, etsin
Sua
Kuin lauluni melodia
Kuin lauluni melodia
Sä
Olet se, joka tekee musta vahvan
Etsin, etsin
Sua
Kuin lauluni melodia
Kuin lauluni melodia
Sä
Olet se, joka tekee musta vahvan
Etsin, etsin
Sua
Anna minulle rakkautesi laulullani
Anna minulle rakkauteѕi laulullаni
